Boys' Night Out 2008 from Lifford Wine Agency on Vimeo.

Lifford Wine Agency's second annual Boys' Night Out in aid of prostate cancer research at Princess Margaret Hospital was a great success and we want to thank you, our sponsors, partners, prize donors and suppliers, for making it an evening to remember. We could not have done it without you.




We are pleased to announce a donation of $45,000+ will be made to the Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation to help in their efforts to find a cure for prostate cancer.

Planning for 2009 is underway and if you have any suggestions, ideas, recommendations, please send us a note. Your feedback is invaluable in creating a better experience for our guests next year.


 

 

 

 


Remember to look for our new NHL Alumni Wine Series in Vintages this fall.
