Free Planned Giving Workshop & Coffee Hour

FREE Planned Giving Workshop & Coffee Hour - Westport, 22 August | Event in Westport | AllEvents.in

Join estate planners & financial experts to discuss the tax benefits of leaving a financial or land donation in your will.

Estate planning can be difficult, but leaving a charitable gift in your will means you can rest easy knowing your loved ones will receive generous tax benefits as you leave a lasting legacy.

To help you maximize these benefits, the Rideau Valley Conservation Foundation (RVCF) has teamed up with IG Wealth Management and Kelly Santini LLP partner Zach Gaulin to host a free planned giving workshop and coffee hour. Experts from both firms will explore how financial and in-kind donations can effect your estate taxes, and walk you through various planned giving options, legal considerations and more. You’ll also hear from RVCF about its role as a local environmental charity and land trust, and how its unique land donation program can help you protect your natural property in perpetuity, at no cost to your estate.

Bring a friend for coffee, treats and an engaging presentation!

King of the Swingers at the Cove

King of the Swingers has energized festivals, fairgrounds, street concerts, and parties with their upbeat, energized, (kinda twisted) approach to Dixie music for more than twenty years. With locals Steve Clarke, Marty Crapper, Stu Pike and Dawson Willsey, they’re ready to take you on a little trip down nostalgia lane. Crowds can be seen singing and tapping along as they relive songs of their respective pasts. From their humble beginnings as Westport’s Official Busking Band, Steevo, Dawg-son, Spiker, and M.C. Rapper laugh and shout their way through such classic Dixie songs as Obladi Oblada, Jocky Full of Bourbon, and Ain’t She Sweet.

King of the Swingers hold the all-time record for most performances by a single group at the Stewart Park Festival, Perth with more than twenty performances over 15 years. Audience reaction is unanimous…..BRING THEM BACK, so we are bringing them back, here, to The Cove!

Always true to their roots, King of the Swingers love to wander the streets playing fun tunes for the kiddies and the Grannies. They have been a mainstay on the streets of the annual MUSICwestport festival as well! One day they hope to make enough cash to afford a place to stay. In the meantime, come out and celebrate on the street with Mowgli, Baloo, and King Louie, to dance and sing with King of the Swingers!

2nd Tom Green Show Added! Westporch Fest Saturday September 23rd! Come to The Cove and Westport!

WELCOME!
We’re glad you’re here.

Homepage Image
We are so happy you are here with us Wendy. Thank you for trusting us with your email address. We’ve got a very newsy email for you.

2nd Tom Green Show Added!

 

The first Tom Green show sold out so quickly,

we’ve added a 2nd show!

 

Join us on Wednesday September 27th, 2023 from 7-10:30pm for Hollywood Actor/Comedian Tom Green. $90 + HST gets you dinner and the show.

After living in the USA for decades, Tom Green recently relocated to Canada, where he starred in Amazon Prime’s “LOL: Last One Laughing Canada.” He cracked up many of Canada’s funniest comedians, including K. Trevor Wilson, Dave Foley, Colin Mochrie and special guest P.K. Subban.

Tom’s program “The Tom Green Show,” which began on Ottawa cable TV and moved to MTV, influenced the rise of shock comedy shows like “Jackass.”

Tom’s appeared in several films, including “Charlie’s Angels,” “Road Trip,” “Stealing Harvard,” “Shred” and “Freddy Got Fingered,” which he wrote and directed.

Tom’s TV appearances include hosting “Saturday Night Live.” He is among the few comedians to guest-host for David Letterman on “Late Show with David Letterman.”

The eccentric, funny man was also a contestant on “Celebrity Big Brother,” in which, despite being Canadian, he was voted America’s favourite house guest. He competed on “The Celebrity Apprentice” with former U.S. president Donald Trump.

In 2006 Green, a pioneer in independent web-casting, was producing a talk show from his Los Angeles home. Fellow comedian Joe Rogan named Green’s show as an influence on his podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience.” Numerous podcasters and other online content creators have cited Green as a pioneer in the medium.

Tom’s battle with testicular cancer was chronicled in the short film “The “Tom Green Cancer Special.” The topic was also covered in his 2004 autobiography “Hollywood Causes Cancer: The Tom Green Story.”

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see Tom Green live on stage! You might hear some live music too!

Uncensored show. Discretion advised.

Reservations required to save your spot! Call 613.273.3636 or Email: thecoveinnwestport@gmail.com to book now.
