🏒 Split the Pot Draw: In Honour of Brad’s 64th Birthday! 🎄

The next few days we’re celebrating Brad’s 64th birthday the best way we know how—by honoring the legacy of our light bringer.

The Winter Classic was without a doubt Brad’s absolute favorite day of the year. Paired with the Christmas holidays—his favorite season—the BJB during this time was pure magic. If you’ve ever had the pleasure of being in attendance, you know the atmosphere was unmatched (and you’ve definitely heard your fair share of Boney M on repeat! 🎶).

Making a difference in someone’s life was something Brad held so close to his heart. In that spirit, we’re running our Split the Pot draw to carry that torch forward.

💰Current Pot: $240.00 (and growing!)

⏰Time Left: Just 2 days to get in!

🎟️Tickets: $10.00 each

📍How to Enter: Send an e-transfer to [email protected]

Let’s blast some Boney M, celebrate Brad, and build this pot up together. Thank you all for your continuous support! ❤️✨
