The Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce is partnering with the Ugly Sweater Guys at its upcoming Christmas luncheon to raise funds for the Children's Wish Foundation.
Held at the Westwood Plateau Golf and Country Club, 3251 Plateau Boulevard, Coquitlam, the event will feature an "Ugly Sweater Hour" at 11:15 to peruse silent auction items, get a photo taken with Santa and scope out the "ugly sweaters" before the crowd sweeps in. Official festivities begin at noon.
Life coach Jordan Birch started the "Ugly Sweater" party idea 12 years ago to raise money for good causes and had continued the tradition and added the Ugly Sweater Day. Follow him on Twitter at @uglysweaterguys.
Donations are sought for the silent auction and tickets to the luncheon are $50 for members plus GST or $65 plus GST for nonmembers. Contact [email protected] or visit http://tricitieschamber.com/
