The theme of the night is charity, and past years have raised over $20,000 for Unison Fund, but this evening of giving goes both ways with tens of thousands of dollars in prizes up for grabs! A few highlights from this year include: Platinum Seats to the Next Century Game: Leafs vs. Hurricanes, VIP passes to Boots & Hearts, a Yamaha A-Series A3M Acoustic Guitar and an iPad.
