Trois magnifiques sourires d’Anges Molson Coors qui se sont présentées au Party APP qui s’est tenu à St-Sauveur les mercredi 4 août dernier. Les Anges Molson Coors avaient pour mission d’encourager les participants-es à opter pour les meilleurs choix. Entre autres, elles ont rendu disponibles des coupons rabais de taxis aux 500 personnes présentes, en plus de les faire participer à un jeu de cibles qui permettait de les sensibiliser à une consommation responsable.
Plusieurs de ces invités s’étaient désigné un conducteur, bravo!
Une soirée amusante qui finit en beauté!
Merci aux Anges Molson Coors de veiller sur nos consommateurs, et ce, de façon responsable!
Saluons ceux qui font le choix de rentrer à la maison en toute sécurité …

Yup, this Saturday, August 7th is National BBQ Day, and the national, youth-led charity Meal Exchange is inviting Canadians to take part in the yummy day while also fighting hunger in Canada.
What’s the ask? It’s simple:
Register & host your own backyard BBQ for friends, family and neighbors to raise awareness about Canada’s hunger problems.
Meal Exchange believes that everyone in Canada should have access to sufficient, nutritious, and culturally acceptable food in order to maintain a healthy & active life. Did you know that 2.7 million Canadians don’t know where their next meal is coming from?
How to participate (and a change to win 2 WestJet tickets!):
- Register your BBQ at http://nationalbbqday.eventbrite.com/ and send Meal Exchange a photo of your BBQ’ing fun to nationalBBQday@mealexchange.com
- You can also tweet about your BBQ fun using hashtag – #nationalBBQday
Registration is FREE, but here’s some food for thought: it takes only $28 for Meal Exchange to empower one youth to take action against hunger in their community. Donate here to help Meal Exchange support youth across Canada.
So this pretty much sounds like the perfect day to me – BBQ, a case of Rickard’s beer (taster’s pack – Red, White and Dark of course) and raising awareness about hunger.
Will you be participating? Have a BBQ/grilling recipe worthy of National BBQ Day!

News from the Deep South in the Windsor/Essex area of Ontario. A couple weeks ago Molson Coors Canada was the proud beer sponsor of the International Dragon Boats for the Cure event held yearly at Tecumseh’s Waterfront Park. Over 150 teams of 20 rowers paddled to raise funds for local hospitals to fight cancer. The Festival has donated over $1.3 Million since it began 7 years ago!
Molson’s sales rep for the area was also on hand to present a $5,000 donation from the Molson Coors Donations Fund which supported the construction of a Memorial Dragon (above) in Tecumseh’s Memorial Park.
Festival Organizers Beth Noakes and Gerry Orum with Molson Coors Canada territory rep Walter Hanson.
Total funds raised from this year’s festival are still being tallied. Will update when we get the numbers. Cheers!
