Mont St. Joseph 22nd Annual Monty Phantom Bonspiel

Feb 24, 2021 | 9:34 AM

Vern has found a way to enjoy his favorite sport in spite of COVID-19 and so have we!

We are so excited to announce that our 22nd Annual Monty mixed curling FunSpiel is set to start on March 12, 2021!!!

Supporting our MSJ staff, Residents and families is the main goal for our Foundation, and this year it is even more so!

Our Monty has been such a fantastic event each and every year! Between all the folks that came out to curl last year, and our amazing sponsors, we raised enough funds to purchase a new Bladder Scanner for our Home which has significantly improved our care team’s diagnostic abilities and reduced our residents’ discomfort.

Help us to continue to rally behind our MSJ team and join in on this year’s ‘Phantom’ Bonspiel!

Our goal is to raise $40,000 to go towards the Tub Campaign we started in the fall; this initiative will provide funds for the Home to upgrade 6 of our special access tubs, ensuring the highest quality infection control and comfort for our residents and staff.

How do you get involved in a ‘Phantom’ Bonspiel with all these public health restrictions???

Easy! Take advantage of our online Monty Auction that will be running from March 12 – 17, 2021 at www.charityauction.bid/MSJ, where local sponsors, like you, have joined our fight for infection control here at MSJ and donated some incredible items for us to auction off! You can even download the Auctria app on your smartphone or tablet to make mobile bidding even easier.

And, consider sponsoring a team!!! This year, instead of sponsoring a team to come out and curl with us, you will be sponsoring a team to stay home, relax, enjoy their families and support the efforts of our community to fight against this pandemic all while supporting the efforts of the MSJ Foundation!!

Here’s your chance to really get in on the fun!! Send us pictures of your ‘team’ practicing and warming up for this year’s Monty so we can share them with the rest of the community and really show everyone just how much fun our Monty truly is!

Now, you may be asking, ‘what about the 50/50 draw you always have’? No need to worry, we have that covered too! This year we are so excited to showcase our new MONTHLY online 50/50 draw!! You can get your name entered with just a few clicks of a mouse and be entered into each draw for the whole year if you want!! Head over to www.msj5050.ca to get started and get in on a great chance to win some extra spending money!

Ok, are you ready to join in? Super! Your first step is to complete the attached sheet and fax, email or mail it back to Jessica Gale at the MSJ Foundation’s office. Make sure that you include any auction items that you are willing to donate and your team sponsorship payment. Team pictures or even short videos can be sent through email to jgale@montstjoseph.org.

For more information, or questions, you can reach Jessica at 306-922-4663 and she will be happy to help you out. We are asking that you confirm your auction item or team support by February 26, 2021, so we can ensure this year’s Monty is even more fantastic than last year’s!! In the end, your sponsorship and support make a direct impact and difference in the lives of the 120 special people who live at MSJ Home.
