“With ever-rising costs in secondary education, our club voted to increase the amount of Book Awards distributed,” said Chuck Drew, club president. Each student received a varying awards to help fund the cost of their higher education. “Our club members work hard with fundraisers like this to improve the trajectory for kids’ through education. We are sincerely grateful to the sponsors and players who continue to make this tournament a success each year because that is what allows us to do what we do,” said Chief Bobby Cormier, immediate past president.
