The first ever Dinner En Blanc is now in the books and the results couldn’t have been better. On Friday, the over 100 who bought tickets for the night were entertained with live performances, fire works and a five course meal at the Pembroke waterfront. Petawawa Toyota was the event sponsor and donated a car to be raffled off. Jessica Khouri from Paperback Events was on the organizing committee and says the proceeds will be donated to a worthy cause.
The event had a fundraiser goal of $20,000 but to date, more than $50,000 has been raised with more donations till to be counted. Dinner En Blanc is expected to be a annual event, supporting different organizations across Renfrew County.
