THAT LASTS A YEAR

WINTER FAMILY BALL 2016 WELCOME TO THE Internet of Everything Cisco solutions and technology are building tomorrow today. cisco.com/ca A WARM WELCOME TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY Tonight, as we celebrate the 31st Annual Winter Family Ball, we are reminded of our vision, that of a connected community where people care for one another. Tonight is also an opportunity to give back to the community by generously supporting our programs and services that bring families and children together on this very special occasion. This heartwarming, fun-filled evening is the embodiment of our vision. This year we launched The Art of Caring, an unforgettable afternoon that gave children and grandchildren an opportunity to tell us, through art and words, what caring means to them. We know, as we unveil their thoughts at the Ball, you will be inspired by what you will see. This wonderful afternoon and cherished evening would not be possible without a special group of volunteers and companies. It is with heartfelt thanks that we recognize their commitment and support. To our dedicated, wonderfully creative Winter Family Ball volunteers, our generous corporate sponsors, our supportive business partners and in-kind donors, we are truly honoured to be the beneficiaries of your generosity. And to our guests, we thank you for joining us and for sharing your caring spirit with your children and with us.

Neil Alexander Julia Staub-French President, Board of Directors Executive Director

1 UNFORGETTABLE EVENING one This magical evening gives us cause to reflect upon a small group of passionate volunteers who, so many years ago, dreamt of creating a unique, elegant fundraising event for North Shore families. More recently, what has made the Winter Family Ball so unique, in fact the only event of its kind in Metro , is how it has become an opportunity for parents to engage in conversations with their children about caring for others and how giving back can not only change the world they live in but their own lives too. At this year’s Ball, your family will experience that elegance and charm that is our tradition and share the spirit of caring and giving with each other. And it will indeed be fun!

2 Our evening

3 The Winter Family Ball has become an annual event for us to not only support “ our community and the amazing work being done at the Family Services of the North Shore, but also to show our children the true meaning of philanthropy and giving back. Our friends and family all come together for a night of giving and celebrating this important organization for all families of the North Shore.

Wine cellar preview

53 Tips ON HOW TO BEST ENJOY YOUR WINES Serving temperature affects both the wine and your perception of it. Often whites are served too chilled, numbing taste buds and leaving delicate flavours undeveloped. Reds served at room temperatures that are too warm, can adversely affect their body, alcohol and sweetness.

GUIDE TO SERVING TEMPERATURES: PINOT GRIS/SAUVIGNON BLANC: 8 – 10*C CHARDONNAY: 10 - 12*C PINOT NOIR/MALBEC: 14 – 16*C

FULL BODIED REDS: 17 – 19*C

DO YOU KNOW THE 20/20 RULE? Take your white wines out of the fridge 20 minutes before serving, and place your red wines in the fridge 20 minutes before serving… it is as simple as that! Enjoy!
