Be a Part of Montana's
East-West Shrine Game
When we consider the cost to operate the 22 Shriners Hospitals (19
orthopedic and 3 burn institutes) will be over $726,000,000, an amount
which comes to more than 2 million per day, we can more than fully
appreciate why Shriners continue to sponsor all-star football games,
golf activities, and other events to raise money for this most worth of
all causes - "The Greatest Philanthropy on Earth." Be assured that
your continued support of our hospitals and attendance at the game is
genuinely appreciated by the Shriners, the players, and most especially,
our "kids" in the hospitals!
The
Montana Shrine Bowl is the oldest continuous single-state sponsored
Shrine High School All-Star Game in North America. It is played in
support of Shriners Hospitals for Children, which are open to all
children through the age of 18 regardless of race, creed or color.
All treatment is free! No third party payment is accepted and no
government funds are used.
This game has raised over
$1,000,000 for the Shrine Hospital in Spokane, Washington.
Over the past 65 years, nearly 3,300 of Montana's finest athletes have
played in the game. Some have gone on to star on college and a few
have played in the Shrine College Senior All-Star East-West Classic in
San Francisco and Palo Alto, California - and pro ball as well.
