Forget Boardwalk and Pennsylvania Avenue, Airdrie businesses now have a chance to be on their own game board.

“It is a fundraiser that the Airdrie Business Network Association has put together to raise funds,” said Ash Dawodharry with the Association, “It’s a board game that we’re making which features all the local businesses in the Airdrie community.”

Dawodharry anticipates that they will raise about $100 thousand for the event which will be split between 10 different charities.

“The first and the best spots on the board will be available for businesses to come and swoop up,” says Dawodharry, “We’ve got spots ranging from $100 all the way up to $10,000.”

The best part of all is that the Airdrie-Opoly board will be available throughout the city after the event.

“There’s no other return on investment that you can get that I can think of where someone’s going to pull out this game board, in their families and their businesses and they’re going to be playing it over and over again with 6 to 8 players. It repeats exposure which is going to go on for years.”

Tonight’s fundraiser starts at 7:00 pm at FitzSimmons Brewery In Airdrie.
