introduced Lisa O'Shea to talk about the GOAL's efforts to help people throughout the world affected by humanitarian crises.

 

 

 

This was followed by the usual charity auction and raffle.  

I wasn't sure if Des was trying bid or just pointing out what Jim keeps in his pockets!

 

In between dances we caught up with some familiar faces.
