A Night of Magical Delusions - In Support of the KMH Foundation
In partnership with Mackinley's Delusions and the KMH Foundation, we hosted a Black Tie Gala Event at The Chanterelle located in Thunder Bay, ON. The night was overflowing with entertainment, a three-course meal, cash bar beverages, a silent auction, and more. The proceeds of this special night were donated directly to various community initiatives and funded counselling services for those in need.
This event would not have been possible without our wonderful sponsors, prize donors, and generous ticket holders. The night's entertainment was brought to you by the Talented Mackinley's Delusions and Thunder & Light Entertainment. Stunning photography was provided by PICme Photography, Kay Lee Photography and beautiful videography by Thingamajig Film Company.

Mental Health Matters - Community Awareness Event
Our annual Mental Health Matters event consisted of various organizations that came together to bring awareness to the on-going mental health crisis and shed light on the disconnect we have here in Thunder Bay. Due to the increase in overdoses, sexual assault and drug use in Thunder Bay, we decided to focus on these businesses this year. Due to Covid-19, we had to keep our public health in mind. Our goal is to make this event bigger next year and bring more awareness to the on-going crisis we have in Thunder Bay. There were 187 suspected overdoses reported in July and August 2021, according to our local health unit. This number has grown substantially since 2017. We are in a crisis; we need to talk about it and provide resources for those in need. We hope you will join us next year as we continue to grow this event.
Thank you to the many organizations that accompanied us and made this event possible, a special thanks to all of the inspiring guest speakers, to Beefcake’s Burger Factory for sponsoring our lunches, to Tim Hortons Memorial for sponsoring our beverages, to the community members that stopped by and educated themselves on some of the services and resources available in our community, to TBT Newswatch and 99.9 The Bay, for spreading awareness and of course to Carolyn Karle and her resilient family and friends, for allowing us to honour her daughter Dayna who unfortunately passed away from a tragic unintentional overdose.
