ABOUT THE EVENT
TICKETS ON SALE MARCH 21, 2020
​
Join us for high tea at the Fairmont Vancouver Airport in Richmond to share our experiences with Down syndrome, celebrate friendships and feel inspired with our special guest, Shelley Moore.
​
This is a mom only event. Moms with a prenatal diagnosis are welcome! We respectfully request that no children or babies attend the event as we want this to be an afternoon about putting you first and having some "me time". Spend time with friends, make new ones, find support, share your struggles and celebrate the great times.
​
The Fairmont Vancouver Airport tea service includes exclusively blended Fairmont teas, petit sandwiches, tasty pastries, house-made scones and fresh seasonal jams with clotted cream.
​
There will be a door prize and raffle with all proceeds donated to Baskets of Love Down Syndrome Support Society.
