Mincon Canada recently participated in the “Curling for Kibble” charity bonspiel, hosted by the North Bay and District Humane Society. The event, which took place on 21 January 2023, was a resounding success, with 22 teams coming together to raise over CA$9,100 for the Pet Food Bank and the shelter’s food and litter program.

 

Mincon was represented by a team of dedicated employees from Mincon Canada, North Bay Factory, who contributed to the fundraising efforts and had a great time participating in the tournament. The event offered two four-end games, a delicious lunch, and a round of trivia.

 

This event forms part of Mincon’s ongoing efforts to give back to the communities in which it does business – including people and animals.

 

Charlene Ylimaki, General Manager, Mincon Canada, North Bay Factory, said:

“It was such a pleasure to participate in Curling for Kibble and support such a wonderful cause. Our team all love animals, so had a great time competing and contributing to the fundraising goal. We are already looking forward to next year’s tournament and the opportunity to support the North Bay and District Humane Society once again.”
