Sandy Summers board member of Desert Sun had the original idea of holding a fashion accessory show to raise money. Sandy invited local businesses to participate at The Water Mark Beach Resort in Osoyoos in April.The event was so successful that it inspired Marji Basso Town Councillor/Educator and Andrea of Spirits Free Clothing, Accessory and Coffee shop to organize two more.
Money raised from the shows will go towards supporting The Safe Home, The Children’ Counselling Program and The Community Kitchen program. All of which are operated by Desert Sun who have offices in Oliver and Osoyoos.
The first fashion show will be held on June 1st at 6:30 pm at Spirits Free, Main Street, Osoyoos (next door to Shoppers Drug Mart) .Tickets are $20, all of which will be a donation to Desert Sun, refreshments are provided.
The second show is being held on June 16th at 6.00pm at Medici’s Café, 350th Avenue, Oliver. Tickets are $30 and include a glass of wine, an appetizer and a $20 donation to Desert Sun. Tickets are available to purchase from Desert Sun, and all the sponsors: Medici’s, Beyond Bliss, Athina’s, Alberto’s, Marks Work Wear, Oliver Bakery & Deli, Cantaloupe Annie’s & OK Photo Lab.
