2015 Brandon Santa Claus Parade

The Brandon Kinsmen entered our float in the Santa Claus Parade. This year we had the Delorean Time Machine tribute car, the Mystery Machine tribute van, and one of the PASCAR race cars. The kids loved seeing Scooby and we also had some nice comments about the Delorean. We were pleased it went over well. Kudos to all the other floats and thanks to the organizers, it went smoothly as always.

PASCAR Successful First Race of 2015

PASCAR held our first public race day on May 31, 2015. There was a great turn out and very exciting racing action.

Most of our race teams from last year have returned, and their cars were better than ever. We also had some new teams, and all told we had more cars on our first day of racing in 2015 than we had on our best day in 2014. And we know there are more teams building more cars, so look for 2015 to be a great year of racing!

The track has seen many improvements. The bleachers have been upgraded, a new flag stand was built, and space added for concessions. Also, the derelict structures have been taken care of.

Our next race day is June 28, 2015, see you there!

Brandon Kin Museum Exhibit

Ride for the Breath of Life logo

The 2015 Ride For The Breath Of Life at Cycle Boyz will be held on June 6, 2015.

We are changing the format this year. We are proud to announce a partnership with Cycle Boyz Customs. We are moving our weekend and site. No longer at the Sobey’s parking lot on the Saturday before Fathers Day. Instead, the event will be at

Cycle Boyz Customs
358 Park Ave. East
Brandon, Manitoba, Canada
R7A 7A7

Phone: (204) 726-4641
Website: www.cycleboyz.com

Registration will be 9 am on June 6, 2015.

The route is Brandon-Kenton-Sandy Lake-Rapid City-Brandon.

We will no longer draw cards for a poker hand, but draw a numbered poker chip out of a bucket, numbered 1-30. This means the best possible score would be 150 (5 times 30) and worst possible score would be 5 (5 times 1). There is a cash prize for best and worst score.

Funds raised will go to support Cystic Fibrosis Canada.


CANCELLED – April 18, 2015 Texas Hold’em at the Double Decker

Regretfully, due to low advance ticket sales, the Kinsmen Club of Brandon has cancelled the upcoming April 18, 2015 Texas Hold’em Poker Tournament at the Double Decker.

We thank all who were interested and bought in ahead of time, and apologize that we could not proceed with the event. We are contacting all ticket holders to arrange a refund.

We will attempt to host another event in the future.
