Great matches - many very close games by all.  Even flickering lights and some coming down with flu did not dampen the enthusiasm of the participants.  Well done Kamloops!  The food was awesome, and we always enjoy  the entertainment provided by the Okanagan ladies.  Thank you all for your help in putting this event on for the 4th time!
