George Gibson Meal Orders

Written by Robbie Thomas on . Posted in Need to Know.

Hi participants in the tournament!

I haven’t had a lot of response for meals to date.
If anyone is interested please put your order in for one or both days.  It makes planning so much easier.

Wednesday – Chili Dogs & Fruit Crumble/Ice Cream
Thursday – Chicken Caeser Salad & Fruit Crumble/Ice Cream

Cost per day is $10.00

Please notify Marg at margwood55@yahoo.com as soon as possible if you are interested in having lunch.

If you prefer to bring your own lunch and would like sweets and coffee and/or tea, these will be available at a cost of $5.00 per day.

Thank you!
Marg 🌭🥗

New Date Set for Club Singles Tournament

Written by Carol Bucyk on . Posted in Need to Know.

The smoke from both the Wesley Ridge and Mount Underwood fires burning close to Port Alberni have affected our tournament play date.  We will now have the semifinals on Sunday, August 17th at 10 A.M. and the finals will be at 1 P.M. that same day.   By that time, the rain and smoke are supposed to have cleared off  a bit, and we should be in a good, healthy position in which to play.  In the meantime, everyone stay healthy and indoors if you can.  Apparently, this morning, our area (Parksville and environs) had  the worst air quality in the WORLD.
