Molson in the Community

Molson Coors donates  $10 000.00 toward the Star City Arena Geothermal project.  The project will see a geothermal heating system installed in the rink enabling the creation of artifical ice.  This will allow the arena to continue to provide the much needed ice time to the town’s residents and to the residents of the surrounding areas, thereby encouraging greater participation in winter ice sports.

Molson Coors …proud to play our part!

Cheers…sagree

Un groupe de près de 20 employés-es Molson Coors se sont investis le mercredi 2 juin dernier à procéder à une opération de nettoyage du terrain de l’Auberge du P’Tit Bonheur, en vue d’accueillir les enfants de tout milieu lors du camp de jour de la saison estivale 2010.

Cette opération est devenue une tradition pour nos employés-es Molson Coors qui répètent l’opération depuis bon nombre d’années déjà. Il va sans que l’Auberge du P’Tit Bonheur apprécie grandement cet investissement communautaire de nos employés-es qui, à voir les photos, ont travaillé très fort physiquement … la bière a certainement été fort rafraîchissante après ce grand ménage …

Félicitations à toute l’équipe pour cette très belle initiative qui fait une grande différence tant pour l’organisme que pour tous les enfants qui profiteront d’installations rafraîchies, rénovées et/ou réparées.

Bon été et à l’an prochain!

A big welcome to Lindsay (far right in above photo), the newest member of the Molson Coors Public Affairs team.

A grad from University of Guelph and Humber College (yay, another Humber PR Alumni!), Lindsay will join us as an intern over the next four months working directly with @MolsonMoffat, @MolsonFK, me and the rest of our communications team.

Mini-interview with Lindsay:

Why are you excited to work at Molson Coors?

“My goal was to combine what I love; public relations and the beer industry.  Molson was the most attractive candidate to fulfill this, being North America’s oldest brewer and having a 224 year history.   Since being employed it’s been everything I had imagined it to be; working alongside a strong and supportive team, the opportunity to attend meetings and events, as well as exciting upcoming projects which I am contributing to.  I really look forward to the rest of the summer, and continuing to learn and adopt the Molson culture.”

What’s your favourite beer?

“MGD.”

We’re thrilled to bring Lindsay into our community, and even more excited to have her writing, posting and reporting on events, news and experiences at Molson Coors….right here on the blog. Cheers!

Le lundi 14 juin dernier, lors du tournoi de golf du Rendez-vous des Ex (ex employés Molson et O’Keefe), messieurs Michel Fuller, président du comité, et Pierre Villeneuve, membre du comité, ont remis un chèque de 4 000 $ à Marjolaine Deslauriers pour la campagne Centraide des employés Molson Coors. Sincères remerciements aux organisateurs du tournoi de golf Rendez-vous des Ex!

It’s been a busy month already with some amazing weather in Ontario!  Can’t speak for the rest of the country…but summer has arrived here.  Taking advantage of the warm weather, pics from some recent events.  Cheers.

The LCBO Queen’s Quay charity BBQ (Toronto) took place on June 4th with all proceeds to Camp Ooch.  This was the 19th year of the event, raising $130,000.  Pretty awesome – in their first year, they raised $500!  Anyone go?

Rickard’s Beer and Broil King were on site

MGD was there too…with the Harley.

Busy!

And farther East…15 Molson Coors employees in Moncton, NB spent an afternoon volunteering at “Maison de Jeunes de Dieppe” . Nice work team!
