This year we are celebrating 20 years of our tennis lessons on Bruce Beach. We would like to invite all our past and current “ students” to join us on Saturday at the annual barbeque, for a group picture. If you could be available around 5:30 PM, we can get a picture before the food hits the table.
Looking forward to seeing all of you on Saturday!

In spite of a short rain delay, the spirit and enthusiasm of the 16 teams in the competition was not dampened. The skilled play of our teams brought many oohs and ahhs from the crowd of beachers who came down to be part of the fun and action. The tournament closed with an exciting final that had people on the edge of their lawn chairs and benches.
This picture was taken last Monday morning by Heather Currie of 124, picture of the kids playing baseball at the cottage this morning. We agreed that the rays of sunshine are Bruce Beach cottagers who've passed, smiling down at the ongoing traditions.
Located on the south side of the Club House.
To entice some "northenders" there is a copy of Baseball for Dummies!!
Don't worry it's mostly pictures...
If you could pass this along to the masses it would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike Buchanan

Jon Vickers (Cottage 41) Jonathan Stewart Vickers was born in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, on October 29 1926, the sixth of eight children, to a family that was musical but poor. So impoverished were his parents that at one time the future Canadian prime minister, John Diefenbaker, a long-standing friend of the family, offered to care for young Jon. As a child he and his siblings sang with his lay-preacher father, a former teacher, at churches near their home. Summers were spent labouring on a neighbour’s farm, where he developed his barrel chest.
