5th Annual Mixer

The Merry Go Round Children's Foundation held its 5th Annual Mixer on March 11, 2009 at the Hockey Hall of Fame in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada! The Mixer rocked as special guests included John Tavares, (2009 World Junior Tournament MVP and anticipated #1 NHL draft pick), Ian White & John Mitchell of the Toronto Maple Leafs as well as Toronto sports media celebrities. Guests enjoyed the exciting opportunity to Shoot & Score, a great reception and fine food which included roast beef and stir fry. There were shoot out prizes, raffle prizes, a silent auction and a live auction to raise money for a very worthy cause.
