The Almonte Curling Club recently hosted the highly anticipated Almonte Cup Bonspiel, attracting a total of 64 enthusiastic curlers on March 24 and 25. This exciting event not only showcased the talent and passion of the participants but also served as a remarkable fundraising opportunity.
Through registration fees, draws, and a silent auction, the dedicated group of curlers managed to raise an impressive sum of almost $8,500. All proceeds from the event were generously donated to the Almonte General Hospital Fairview Manor Foundation. This substantial contribution will greatly support the foundation’s efforts in providing essential healthcare equipment to the hospital and manor.
As part of their long-term commitment, the Almonte Curling Club has pledged to raise $30,000 over a span of 10 years for the Foundation. With endeavors like the Almonte Cup Bonspiel, they are making significant strides toward achieving this goal. The club’s dedication and the generosity of the participants and supporters play a crucial role in enhancing the community’s healthcare resources.
