Griz Pins for Charity

Pins go on sale starting Feb.18th! Get them while quantities last!

Griz Days is all about giving back to our
community. Because of COVID-19 we had to cancel many of
our events that provide an opportunity for our local non-profit
organizations to raise much needed funds for their cause. As a
result, we have decided to change up our pin format. This year instead of a

cash prize, the winner will get to choose what non-profit organization they would

like a $1000 donation to go to. We have only printed a small batch of pins so get

them while they last!

BUY YOUR GRIZ PINS HERE:

Drift & Sonder, Fernie Distillers, The Salvation Army Thrift Shop, Fernie Mountain Spirits, Visitor Info Centre, Big Bang Bagels, Fernie Meat Market, Scotiabank, The Fernie Legion, Stick and Stone, The Fernie Hotel & Pub, The Fernie Museum, Art Station, Fernie Heritage Library, Fernie Brewing Company
