Grab your running shoes, three friends and get registered for SaskGaming’s third-annual Charity Championship, taking place on September 21 at Casino Regina.This year’s event features an “Amazing Race” style competition that allows up to 50 teams of four to compete in scavenger hunts, puzzles and fun team challenges at locations throughout downtown Regina. Teams earn points for each completed challenge as they vie for a piece of the $25,000 prize pool for a charity or non-profit of their choice.
“Since 2016, Charity Championship has raised more than $142,000 for Saskatchewan charities and non-profits,” Minister Responsible for SaskGaming Christine Tell said. “This event is an exciting way for the corporation to foster its mission of giving back to the people of this province.”
Charity Championship teams will fundraise before the event. The more money a team raises, the more advantages they will receive in the competition. All funds raised will be endowed to the team’s charity or non-profit of choice.
“SaskGaming’s brand promise is an ‘Always Entertaining’ experience,” SaskGaming President and CEO Susan Flett said. “Charity Championship marries fun with fundraising and offers a unique way to engage Saskatchewan people’s generous and giving spirit.”
