Lakeshore Rocks raises $38,100 for our
Emergency Department

Thursday, June 5, 2025

On Thursday, June 5, Lakeshore Rocks took over Club Soda for a high-energy night of live music, fundraising, and community spirit — all in support of the Emergency Department at Lakeshore General Hospital.

With over 200 guests in attendance, the event raised an outstanding $38,100, which will directly support lifesaving equipment and care for the West Island community.

The evening was expertly hosted by Lee Haberkorn, who kept the crowd engaged and the energy high throughout the night. A big thank you also goes to our dedicated volunteers, who helped drive fundraising efforts by selling raffle tickets and Lakeshore Rocks hats.

The stage came alive with unforgettable performances by opener Hayden Nolan, followed by Retransmission, who brought a unique energy, featuring Dr. Jay Biem on drums and Dr. Fil Pasquini on keyboard, and even included a surprise saxophone performance by Dr. Sevan Ortaaslan! VTach & The Ectopic Beats kept the momentum going with a powerful set anchored by Dr. Robin Nathanson on drums, delivering rhythm and heart with every beat. And Shinebox finished off the show with hits that kept everyone singing along.

Guests in the VIP section enjoyed an elevated experience with delicious catering provided by Café Gentile, adding a touch of local flavour to the evening.

A heartfelt thank you to our generous sponsors Vivier Pharma, The Sampalis Foundation and Bayshore Soins à domicile, who made the night possible.

We’re also grateful to Terranian Productions and Provigo Le Marché Kirkland.

Thank you to everyone who attended, performed, sponsored, or supported Lakeshore Rocks — your energy and generosity help power better healthcare for our community. We can’t wait to rock with you again next year!
