Description

After years of struggling with depression, anxiety and PTSD following his father’s suicide in 2013, Brook Morrison, at the age of 26, also passed away from suicide in September of 2020. This annual event is in Brook's honour and meant to be a fun celebration to raise funds & awareness for BeMorr Society. BeMorr Society helps those who struggle with Mental Health and those who are impacted by Suicide.

The first annual Hawaiian Shirt Gala took place at the Clarion Hotel & Conference Centre in September 2022. Our second annual Gala was held at Hillside Events at the Ledgeview Golf Club in October 2023. Both years the Gala featured a 3-course meal, entertainment, auction, and more. 

Last years Gala was hosted by Happie Poonian and included a welcome from Mayor Ross Siemens, epic entertainment from Sheyanne Sundahl, Steve Halfnights, Aftershock Roadshow as well as a special guest video from Baywatch star, Jeremy Jackson. Fundraising efforts included a silent auction, a 50/50, and a raffle for a four-night stay at Mauna Lani Resort on the Big Island of Hawaii along with a roundtrip flight for two to any regularly scheduled and marketed WestJet destination. 

Taking place at the Ledgeview Golf Club, Abbotsford, our third annual event will build off the last two year’s success, and offers an amazing opportunity to show your support for mental health and wellness by connecting with the BeMorr Society - while having a good time! Can't wait to see you there!
