What’s new at Community Living’s 2025 Festive Brunch? More than you expect

Community Living Huntsville’s 2025 Festive Brunch, presented by Tall Trees Muskoka and Deerhurst Resort, promises to be bigger, bolder, and full of surprises – all in support of disability-inclusive, affordable housing initiatives in North Muskoka. 

The not-for-profit organization invites the community to come together for its signature  fundraising gala on Sunday, December 7. 

“Get ready to enjoy a delicious gourmet brunch buffet at a new and larger venue, try  your luck at the bigger and better silent auction and exciting treasure box key contest,  and bid on some amazing luxury items in our live auction,” says Jennifer Jerrett,  Community Engagement Specialist for Community Living Huntsville. “And come ready  to be wowed by fantastic live entertainment and inspiring conversations worth having.”

To accommodate growing interest, the 2025 brunch will take place at Deerhurst Resort, offering even more room for guests and entertainment. 

Live performances include Ascension Aerials and the ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) Band – a talented group of musicians on the autism spectrum who are pushing the  boundaries of autism acceptance one heart-pumping song at a time. Jerrett will lead a  panel discussion with the band members after their performance. 

Mrs. Jessica Claus will also drop in for a special visit for children. 

Every dollar raised helps ensure that community members shut out from housing equity can find and keep safe, stable, and dignified roofs over their heads. 

“By joining us for the Festive Brunch, you are not only enjoying an unforgettable event – you are helping to create a more inclusive community through real housing solutions for  people with developmental disabilities and families we serve,” says Jerrett. “We are  beyond grateful for the generous commitments from Tall Trees Muskoka and Deerhurst  Resort for this event, so every ticket, every auction bid, every donation goes straight to  our affordable housing initiatives.” 

Tickets are $75 for adults or $30 for children. Or, if you’re a business, organization,  community group, or supporter, why not become a table sponsor? Table sponsorship is  $1,000 and includes 10 seats, name recognition, and priority seating. 

Tickets and table sponsorships are available now through Community Living Huntsville’s  website at bit.ly/FestiveBrunch2025. 

Community Living Huntsville is a not-for-profit, registered charity that supports and  advocates alongside more than 300 children and adults, and their families, to promote  and advance meaningful choice and real inclusion for people with developmental  disabilities, so people, families, and our community can thrive.
