[Ottawamusicians] Fundraiser for the Ottawa Hospital Cancer Centre & Kidney Cancer Canada

Passing on this request from Roxanne Pilon for info of artists who may either know J.P. Bélisle and his love of the blues or may be interested in this event. Jim Roy Ottawa Blues, Jazz & Swing Guide Phone: (613) 829-3725 www.ottawabluesjazz.ca Hi Jim, it's been a while seen we've run into each other. I don't know if you remember JP, but he has been battling cancer for a while. He was a regular at many blues clubs and events and even got up to sing the blues with local bands sometimes. His wife Bonnie is organizing a fundraiser and I am helping her get the word around. There will be local bands involved and prizes. Would it be possible to add the message below to your website and or your weekly Ottawabluesandjazz notice. I've also attached below some posters and more info for your interest. It would be much appreciated and maybe we will see you there! Fundraiser for the Ottawa Hospital Cancer Centre & Kidney Cancer Canada Koyman Art Gallery, 1171 St. Laurent Saturday, April 16, 7-11 pm; tickets $10 at the door A fundraiser is being hosted in honour of JP (Jean-Pierre) Bélisle on Saturday, April 16th 2011 from 7-11 pm at Koyman Art Gallery, at 1171 St. Laurent Blvd. This will be a heart-warming event to raise funds to be equally divided between The Ottawa Hospital Cancer Centre and Kidney Cancer Canada. JP has recently been treated with the Cyber Knife machine acquired by the Ottawa Hospital Cancer Centre in 2010 (a minimally non-invasive treatment for brain tumours). Drs. Shawn Malone and Christina Canil will be in attendance to speak on the Cyber Knife and Kidney Cancer. We promise to have a wonderful night with live music including Blues, Rock, Pop and Country, a light lunch, silent auction and a 50/50 draw.
