CORNWALL, Ontario – Girls Night Out is returning for its fifth year this year on Saturday, Feb. 10 at the Agora Centre.

This event starts at 4 p.m. and goes until closing at around 1 or 1:30 a.m.

The event is for ladies only who are 19-years-old or older and supports Cornwall’s Maison Baldwin House, Cornwall’s women’s shelter.

Tickets are on-sale now for $20 and are $25 at the door.

The event will see 24 vendors who will be selling make-up jewellry and more.

In its five years, Girls Night Out has grown significantly, and has raised $15, 000 for Baldwin House.

“This is something I really believe in,” said Naomi Lamarche, one of the event’s organizers. “It is a cause close to my heart. Baldwin house are just wonderful and there are a lot of young ladies who need it.”

Lamarche explained that Girls Night Out would not be possible without their sponsors, American Iron and Metal, Rurban Brewing, Paul’s Concrete & Flooring, Cornwall Orthodontics, South Branch Garage, Seaway Family Dental and Dr. Yassa.

The event is also supported by great volunteers such as Elaine, Josee, Lucille, Courtney, Renee, Savannah and female student volunteers.

Currently there are over 100 tickets sold. Event goers will be treated to a spaghetti supper, door prizes and special guest karaoke singers, with DJ services provided by Carol Grand Productions.

“We’re hoping everyone grabs their dancing shoes and their girlfriends and comes along,” said Lamarche. “It’s not just about Baldwin House, it’s about women being proud of who they are.”

Tickets are available at the Agora Centre or by contacting Naomi Lamarche at 613-363-8948 or by contacting Claudette Wanzer at 613-933-4519.
