Huntsville, Ontario – There’s magic in the air as tickets are now on sale for Community Living Huntsville’s 2026 Festive Brunch presented by Tall Trees and Deerhurst Resort.

The not-for-profit organization invites guests to purchase tickets for the signature fundraising event, held at Deerhurst Resort on Sunday, November 29, from 9:30 AM to 2:00 PM, and get set to enjoy a festive morning filled with a memorable meal, silent and live auctions, inspiring conversations worth having, and magical moments featuring special guest Yan Markson, one of Canada’s top mentalists and magicians.

“You’ll want to get your tickets early – last year’s 400-seat event sold out in record time,” says Jennifer Jerrett, Community Engagement Specialist with Community Living Huntsville. “Whether you purchase an individual ticket or gather colleagues, friends, family, or business clients around a corporate table, you will not want to miss this gourmet brunch and festive celebration of disability inclusion.”

Jerrett notes that, thanks to the partnership with Tall Trees and Deerhurst Resort, every dollar raised through tickets, auctions, and more, will support Community Living Huntsville’s affordable housing initiatives for people with developmental disabilities and families who access the organization’s services. Initiatives include a more than $1.2-million renovation of a home at 18 Main St. W. in Huntsville to create 4 apartments, including 1 fully accessible unit, plus an emergency response bedroom, shared living space, and a shared kitchen.

“Tall Trees and Deerhurst Resort are going above and beyond for this event,” adds Jerrett. “These two Platinum Signature Event Partners they are contributing their expertise, food, kitchen staff, waitstaff, and the venue to help us make the most of our guests’ contributions. It’s a shared commitment to disability inclusion in our community that is unparallelled.”

The 2026 Festive Brunch includes:

• Mimosa Mingle
• Gourmet Brunch Buffett
• Silent and Live Auctions featuring Luxury Prizes, including a Trip to Costa Rica
• Special Guest Performances by Yan Markson

Guests will also have the chance to purchase one of 70 keys for an Unlocking Elegance Treasure Box Key Contest. Each $50 key offers a chance to unlock an Etrusco Gioielli piece handcrafted in Italy, contributed by Ron Henry Jewellers, and valued at more than $1,500.
