Prepare to be amazed and dazzled as seven magicians take the stage this Saturday (April 8) to raise money for Ruth King elementary.
In its second rendition, funds raised will go to everything from gym equipment and art supplies to technical aids for classrooms. Last year’s show raised more than $6,000 for the parent advisory council.
“When I heard that there was an opportunity to help the kids from Ruth King Elementary School, I jumped in,” said magician Eric Bedard in a statement. “Every magician that I contacted said ‘ YES’ immediately and was excited to participate in this great fundraiser to give back to the community. All of us are donating our time and talents at no cost to help the kids. We are all keeping the magic alive!”
This year’s show includes Bedard, Jason Verners, Shayne King, David Attwood, Kigen Martin and Heather and Sandra McNeill.
The show kicks off at 6 p.m. at Belmont secondary, 3041 Langford Lake Rd., with close up magic, balloon twisters and a silent auction. The main event gets underway at 7 p.m. Tickets are $20. For more information go to bit.ly/2obfCEs.
