I can’t believe it’s over already! What a weekend!
I want to thank all the players for the awesome matches and for helping us stay on time all weekend!

A standing ovation for our volunteers:

Tee Roy Brown! My Brown Knight - this event wouldn't have happened without you. Thanks for keeping me on track and for waiting til Sunday night to let your cold take over.
Diane Grady - Our Draw Diva and Court Control Queen. Thanks for all your help. You truly went above and beyond the call of duty. Again:)
Jen Close – I can always count on you for a laugh and for being there:)
Melisa Tang – Sorry you weren’t feeling so well this weekend but thanks for all your planning and help.
Doug Janzen, Brendon Hull, Randy Winters, Owen Smith and Doug Kreutzer for all their referreeing.
Brenda Tansley, Dennis Hill and Gary Buss – you guys pour a mean free beer!

These kind of events can’t happen without sponsors:
Thank you all so much!

Lorraine June of Dundee Securities Corporation: We look forward to working with you next year too!

Thanks again to Grady Environmental Solutions, Michael Hansby Real Estate, Shawn Patton and RBC Financial Group, Marnie at Bar None, for making Friday night happen, and Denman Fitness.

I’d also like to take this opportunity to thank Melanie Jans for jumping up to the plate and playing in the Men’s Open. Your grace and talent are inspiring.

Cheers to Men’s D winner Richard Caelius for donating his prize money to the 2020 Fund! Nice.

Special thanks to Christopher Ziegler for flying in from Whitehorse!

Congrats to Soren Schou who, due to a conflict of interest, (in regards to sponsorship issues), was crowned the champion of the 1st Annual SCRU Darts tournament.

We hope everyone had a great time and we look forward to an even bigger event next year! See you then.
