Event Location : Toronto, Ontario

Once again the sun was out for Risk Management Counsel of Canada, RMC, when they held their spring celebration event at The Steam Whistle Brewery in Toronto on April 17th, 2008.

Guests were welcomed to RMC’s version of “Canad-opoly” by a Mountie Mime, East Coast Celtic Music and a Canad-opoly game. Throughout the evening guests were treated to fabulous regionally-themed food, Steam Whistle Beer and a host of other delectable treats and drinks. At the four food and game stations guest were encouraged to play the game as well as to enjoy the various foods from across the country. For example, at the Atlantic Region station guests were invited to try freshly shucked oysters on-the-half- shell and at the Prairies station a chef was on hand to carve-up succulent Alberta beef tenderloin.

In addition to mingling and playing the game, many who attended also took tours of the Steam Whistle Brewery. While playing the game led to the possibility of winning one of 13 different prizes, there was also an opportunity to donate to WICC, Women in Insurance Cancer Crusade.

RMC was delighted, once again, to have an opportunity to give to WICC. Michael Butler, Chair of Chapter & Industry Relations attended the event and spoke on behalf of WICC. RMC President, Geneviève Cotnam thanked Michael Butler and spoke of the valuable work at WICC. In addition to Mr. Butler, RMC was delighted to have Lyna Newman; Secretary and Treasurer of WICC, Barbara Haynes, Chair, National Sponsorships and Steve Wilson, Chair, Media Relations for WICC attend the event.

RMC wishes to thank WICC for their support as well as the support of all who attended.
