Ladies night out

Local ladies packed the Forest Inn’s Rainforest Conference Room on the evening of May 10 for a social evening of music, shopping, and fun in support of the Sioux Lookout Blueberry Festival.
This year’s Ladies Night Out Purse Auction featured an 80s theme and featured more than 25 items up for bid.
“With each purse we’ve added accessories such as scarves, chocolates, handmade soaps,” event co-coordinator Dori Hopko explained, adding special gifts were also up for bid along with the purses.
This year’s Blueberry Festival runs from August 2-11.
