Guests enjoyed a reception, followed by a five-course meal, during which several speakers shared how Chabad Lubavitch has impacted their lives. Throughout the evening, several prizes were raffled, including hockey tickets, vacation packages, 40-year-old scotch and the grand prize of a 2014 BMW i3. The evening concluded with an entertaining performance by comedian Marc Schiff.
