Don't Forget To Donate Your Bras For A Great Cause

We are a little over halfway through the month, and don't forget that bras will be collected until October 27th for "Bras Around the Building" at The Canadian Cancer Society, OLG Slots at Kawartha Downs and Country 105/Energy 99.7. For every bra collected during the campaign, OLG Slots will donate $1 to the Canadian Cancer Society.
