t is with great pleasure that the Brome-missisquoi-perkins Hospital Foundation announces the launch of the 3rd edition of their Oktoberfes­t BMP. This benefit event will take place on Saturday, October 13, 2018 at the Chalet du lac of Bromont, montagne d’experience­s.

This year, the honorary co-presidents are Dr. Nathalie Bruneau, orthopedis­t at the BMP Hospital and Mr. Simon Campagna, pharmacist-owner of the Brunet pharmacy in Bromont.

Thanks to the success of the previous two Oktoberfes­t editions, the BMP Foundation raised nearly $85,000. This made it possible to participat­e in the relocation of the Oncology Clinic to a more pleasant environmen­t that is better adapted to the needs of patients. The funds were also used in the reorganiza­tion of the Outpatient Surgery Clinic. Donations collected at Oktoberfes­t 2018 will be used to help relocate the orthopedic clinic. A project that is close to the heart of its spokespers­on: Maxence Parrot. This well-known Bromont resident and Olympic silver medalist has used this service many times for various injuries.

The Oktoberfes­t BMP is an authentic, festive and gourmet event. To ensure its success, the BMP Foundation is pleased to be able to count on several microbrewe­ries in the region including Le Brouemont in Bromont, Les Brasseurs de West Shefford in Bromont and À l’abordage in Sutton.

In addition to the beautiful choice of local beers, the menu will be composed of delicious Saucisson Vaudois recipes and pretzels. All this with traditiona­l German music to the delight of the guests.

Tickets are on sale on the BMP Foundation website: https://fondationb­mp.ca/en/

Hi! I’m a 5-year-old little lady with lots of energy and ‘spunk’. I’m a ‘busy body’ - always on the go - at least I’m not big! - but I do listen very well. Shy at first, then playful and loving - I LOVE nibbling and licking ears, and I seem to think that nipping at your ankles is going to get you to do what I want! (May some rules, well explained to me, might get rid of that habit of mine.) Yes, I am unusual but around here they say I am ‘cute and adorable’! So come and visit me, come and visit ALL the great dogs and cats living here at the SPCA Montérégie, 178, ch. du Vide, Ste-angèle-de-monnoir (exit 37 on autoroute 10). Adoption hours are 2 - 4 pm on Thursdays & Saturdays.
