Special Olympics Nanaimo is having a Beer and Burger and Silent Auction fundraiser on Thursday, October 24th from 6-9pm at the Old City Station Pub.

Tickets are $20 and we are asking for coaches and volunteers to please help with selling tickets. If each coach sold five tickets we’d have a great event to support local athlete programs, equipment, uniforms and travel.

Please contact Jacky at 250.802.1088 to get your tickets and for more information on this great event.
