What is the Evelyn Shanahan Endowment Fund for Creative Play?
Evelyn Shanahan was a sweet and hilarious little girl who spent a lot of her 9 years at Alberta Children’s Hospital (ACH). Through frequent and sometimes long hospitalizations, she still lived her life with enthusiasm. No day was complete without a dance party to her favourite songs. Her favourite part of every day at the hospital was singing and dancing with the music therapists!
When she passed away in the Fall of 2022, her parents created the Evelyn Shanahan Endowment Fund for Creative Play with generous donations from her friends and family. The fund provides ongoing yearly funding to support the music therapy program at ACH. The music therapy program at ACH is entirely donor funded and interacts with children thousands of times each year, bringing joy, encouraging social development and supporting kids to be themselves even in the most difficult circumstances.
Evelyn’s dogs (Bee & Baxter) hope to see you there!

New Year's Eve Party- Hogman-Eh! 2024
2024-12-31 17:00 - 2025-01-01 23:00
Hogmanay, or Scottish New Year’s Eve, has been celebrated since pagan times when the Norsemen marked the winter solstice and the beginning of a new year. Each year in Ottawa the Scottish Society of Ottawa (SSO) offers up our own “Hogman-Eh!” – you don’t need to be Scottish to participate, you only need to like having a good time!
Hogman-Eh! is for families and people of all ages and backgrounds to celebrate the close of the year with great music, dance, friendly people, and delicious food and drink.
This year the event will be at a new location – the Infinity Centre, on Gibford Drive. As one of Ottawa’s newest meeting spaces, it is elegant and spacious with a large welcoming foyer. The centre is served by four major bus routes and offers something we haven’t had in the past: lots of free parking in the area. There are also four hotels close by if you’d like to stay the night. This move was necessary, as the Aberdeen Pavilion was unavailable this year.
The event begins at 2 pm with the opening of the Hall of Origins which is free for all. At 4:30 pm the main ballroom will open and many exciting musicians and bands will entertain you until 1 am.
This year get ready to sing along or dance to local tenor John Young, Cape Breton fiddler Ernie Fraser, The Royal Canadian Air Force pipe band, Celtic favourites Brandy ‘N’ Port and our headliner act, the internationally acclaimed The Devil’s Brigade
There will also be a chance to watch as dancers from several Ottawa Highland Dance schools demonstrate their impressive talents.
As no party can be without good food and drinks, guests will be able to purchase a $25 voucher at the door that can be exchanged for a tasty meal prepared on-site by Dhruvees restaurant, who have proudly served their Asian-style food at previous Hogman-Eh! events. VIP patrons will be provided a tasty menu from the centre’s on-site kitchen.
Mavericks Donuts will also be there to provide an array of gourmet donuts.
The Hogman-Eh! bar as always, will serve premium scotch whisky, Scottish beer, soft drinks (Irn Bru of course), and a good selection of wines and other refreshments.
We’re set for a great extravaganza! Looking forward to seeing you at this “Infinitely” good time – Hogman-eh ’24!
Ticket prices are $45 for general admission (free for children under 12); $75 for a VIP ticket and $125 for a VIP ticket and a 2-course meal. Taxes and service charges will be added on at checkout.
