Guys For Kids Fundraising Event on May 23, 2013

Cornwall Ontario — The Max Keeping Foundation: Cornwall Edition will be hosting a special event on Thursday, May 23rd 2013 at the Ramada Hotel & Conference Centre in Cornwall, Ontario.

This event will raise funds for the Max Keeping Foundation – Cornwall Edition, with all proceeds directly benefiting children in the Cornwall community. Last year, the organization invested over $50,000 to support economically disadvantaged children in Cornwall and surrounding area. All of the funds raised locally go directly towards supporting local youth.

This unique “Guys Night Out” theme will offer a guy’s night of ‘pampering’ including:

• Beer sampling from Canadian craft brewers Beau’s, Wellington, Church-Key, Hockley Valley, and McAuslan

• Wine and spirits sampling from Philippe Dandurand Wines, Jim Beam, and Forty Creek

• Food selection to satisfy your cravings, including a variety of meats and pastas

• Golf stations that will test your swing (on-site golf simulator)

• Fishing stations displaying the latest fishing gear

• Prizes and auctions

• Networking/Socializing with special guests and local business & community supporters

Doors will be open at 6:00 p.m. and – for the price of admission – attendees will have their fill of drink and food, golf and fishing stations, car displays, on-site massage station, and more.

“Using the local Mother/Daughter fundraising events as inspiration, we’ve decided to host a ‘Guys For Kids’ event that will support a wonderful cause while providing local guys (and gals) with a night of fun and excitement,” said Gilles Latour. Co-Chair of Guys For KIds “There hasn’t been an event like this before and the buzz is building – you won’t want to miss it!”

“We have been able to secure 6 craft breweries from both Ontario and Quebec and expect over 20 different styles of beer to sample”..said Jason Killoran Co Chair of Guys for Kids and Leader of aleienated.ca.

Max Keeping, Jesse Winchester, Kurt Stoodley will be in attendance, as well as other special guests that include professional athletes, media figures, and local business and community supporters.
