What a Grand Celebration!
This year, the Ottawa ECA proudly turned 60. To mark this milestone in style, we combined our Christmas Gala with 60th Anniversary festivities at the Fairmont Chateau Laurier Main Ballroom on Friday, December 6th, 2024.
With several hundred guests in attendance, the Association pulled out all the stops with a jazz band and champagne dress wearing server at the reception. Also featured were a welcoming harp player, dancers and staff serving drinks and hors d’oeuvres.
Upon entering the main ballroom guests were welcmed by a 30′ tall violinist and featured dancers. This was followed by an historical slide show, VJ music, a traditional turkey dinner, live feed speaches and finally agroup of dancers. The dancing then took over as the Sway Band took the stage.
It was a wonderful event enjoyed by over 300 members, sponsors, colleagues, family and friends as part of this once-in-a-lifetime gala event.
Our thanks to the volunteers and staff at the Ottawa ECA for all their work in putting on such a world class event.
