This year's lucky winners of the coveted Fête Romantique Grand Prize are Mei-Fei and David Elrick, long-time Guelph residents and supporters of the arts in Guelph. They have been buying Fête tickets for many years and are thrilled to have finally hit the jackpot! Mei-Fei and David and four guests of their choosing will be treated to an elegant multi-course dinner being co-ordinated by Platters Catering and Events and served by members of Guelph Arts Council on Saturday, February 13, 2010. The Grand Prize affair takes place in a fabulous local heritage home and comes complete with complimentary limousine service provided by Mirage Limousine.
Thirty other fortunate individuals also won Fête Romantique prizes, such as tickets to local concerts, theatres and festivals as well as gift certificates to Guelph restaurants or the products and services of fine local businesses. (See list following.)
At the draw event on January 28, 2010, Fête Romantique Co-chair Sarah Palmer acknowledged the generous contributions of the prize donors as well as the time and effort of Board, staff and friends who ensured the success of the major Guelph Arts Council fundraiser.
