Molson in the Community

 Auberge du P’tit Bonheur

On Thursday June 5, for the second year running, a team of approximately 40 Molsonemployee volunteers, including yours truly, spent the day in the Laurentians to help clear the site of Auberge du P’tit Bonheur, a summer camp for underprivileged kids, of fallen trees and other debris left by winter. It was a long and physically challenging day, but the amazing team spirit that was shown by everyone as well as the smiles and appreciation from the organization’s staff made it all very worth it. In fact, it was such a great success that the organizing committee has decided to make this a yearly Molson tradition and people are already starting to …

It was an amazing experience and honor to be able to present our donation to Steve Gottlieg of Boundless Adventures Association.  The donation is going to a very thankful group of people who are very passionate about what they do and help countless youths and young adults, it truly was an inspirational place to be.
Steven was very thankful to all of our generosity over the years and especially this year.

The 2008 Ride for Cancer with Lance Armstrong was a success, and the $5000 from Molson will help reach the goal of $25,000 which will go towards a linear accelerator for the Regional Cancer Centre at Grand River Hospital.   The participants of the 100 Km ride had an opportunity to ride up front with Lance Armstrong, how great is that!!

Last night was Molson’s first ever Brew 2.0 event!!!

About 20 or so 2.0-savvy folks joined Molson and the Brew 2.0 team at the ACC in the Lord Stanley’s Mug for few hours of minglin’, food and beer tasting, and a little brew education.  With a killer line-up of different foods paired with different beers — Molson Canadian, Coors Light, Corona, Rickard’s White, Rickard’s Red and Creemore – the guests were given a little history about the beer and why it was paired with certain foods.  Me, the vegetarian, watched from a far….man those mini burgers looked good
