On June 14, Rotarians and guests gathered for an unforgettable evening of music, movement, and meaning at the “Ain’t Misbehavin’” fundraising event in support of the Ronald McDonald Family Room at the Marotta Family Hospital in St. Catharines.
The night opened with the upbeat sounds of The Hummingbirds, a vibrant youth steel drum band, setting the tone for what was to come.
Headlining the evening was the acclaimed Toronto All-Star Big Band, a 28-piece ensemble that brought the golden age of swing to life.
Their performance had guests on their feet as the Lindy Dancers dazzled with vintage flair—and invited everyone to join in the fun, filling the dance floor with joyful energy and laughter.
Generous donations and raffle prizes added to the excitement, with contributions from WestJet (a flight for two to any of their destinations), Dynasty Wine Tours, Sony TV, Karen Webb (local artist), Stone Mill Inn, and the Niagara Lions Basketball Team, among others.
More than just a fun night out, Ain’t Misbehavin’ succeeded in raising awareness for the Ronald McDonald Family Room and brought our community closer through music, generosity, and fellowship.
