Toronto, ON - In their first-ever performance together, rock group Three Dog Night will take the stage with the 42-piece Canada Pops Orchestra at the 2002 Baycrest Gala on October 24th in Toronto.

One of the hottest bands in North America in the ‘70s, Three Dog Night will perform many of its Top 10 hits, including “One”, “Easy To Be Hard”, “Shambala”, “Old Fashioned Love Song” and “Mama Told Me Not To Come”. With full orchestral backing, the songs will carry a richness and depth that is sure to surprise and delight Three Dog Night fans – and keep the dance floor busy.

“We are thrilled with the tremendous support the community has shown for our event and for Baycrest Centre for Geriatric Care,” says Gala Chair Mary Shechtman.

Corporate tables have been snatched up, but there are still a limited number of tickets available at $500 each. For information, call 416-785-2500, ext. 2049. The Gala is organized each year by Baycrest’s Women’s Auxiliary.

Baycrest is world-renowned for its expertise in geriatric health care and aging brain research. Proceeds from the Gala will enrich the lives of the elderly through excellence in care, research and education.
