13th Man Fundraising Dinner

On Friday, November 23rd, Football Manitoba hosted the 16th annual fundraising dinner at the Viscount Gort Hotel, the 13th Man Dinner. The evening was a tremendous success, with a keynote speech from Buck Pierce, spectacular entertainment from Brian Glow and the best live auction Winnipeg has ever seen, led by the Football Manitoba Executive Director, Ron East. Thank you to everyone who came out this year for the dinner and to all who supported Football Manitoba by attending, donating tickets, volunteering and donating prizes - we can't wait to see you again next year!
