Geeks Golf Registration Extended

Geeks on Ice 2006 to Auction Team Gushue Autographed Olympic Jacket

Moncton, NB – The third annual Geeks on Ice hockey tournament is pleased to announce that it has secured an Olympic jacket signed by all members of Team Gushue -- the gold medal winners of the 2006 Olympic men’s curling competition.

“Pictures are available on our website at
www.geeksonice.com” says Trevor MacAusland, tournament founder. “We’re very excited to have this piece of sports memorabilia and to be able to use it to raise money for such a fantastic charity.”

A raffle draw for prizes including a return trip for two from Moncton to Montreal courtesy of Via Rail, and a stay at the Ramada Crystal Palace for a family of four is also being held. Tickets can be purchased from Support to Single Parents (
singleparents1982@hotmail.com), from the Geeks on Ice organizing committee, or onsite at the tournament.

Proceeds from all raffles, auctions and the 2006 Geeks on Ice hockey and Geeks Golf tournaments go towards outfitting Support to Single Parents with computers and peripherals.

“We are taking registrations for the Geeks Golf tournament being held that same weekend at the Dundee Sports Dome,” says MacAusland. “The golf event has been unexpectedly popular, so we’ve extended the registration deadline to April 13th.” Individuals wanting to play golf but who do not have a team can also register to play.

Teams can register by contacting the Dundee Sports Dome at 382-PLAY (7529) or email at
info@sportsdome.ca or visit the website at www.sportsdome.ca.

Geeks on Ice has a mandate to serve as a networking catalyst and promotion of knowledge industry firms and professionals from all over Atlantic Canada while raising funds to purchase computers, peripherals and software for non-profit organizations.

2006 Sponsors include Maritime Cresting, Plexus Connectivity Solutions, Whitehill Technologies, Inc., Enterprise Greater Moncton, RBC Financial Services, Business NB, BMG Consulting and Dundee Sportsdome. Prize donors include Via Rail, Investor’s Group, Ramada Crystal Palace, and NRC.
