Sports in brief -
Bench Press / Powerlifting proved to be a very successfull event. Thanks to a large turn out from those who came from Trois Rivieres Police. A new location is set for this year.
Badminton was very popular this year with a strong field in the Experts category. Alain Landry & Rodrigue Berube will coordinate the event this year.
Cycling road race and 5 & 10k races will be located at a new sight, Gatineau Park. The staging area for these events will be at Camp Fortune with all races starting and finishing at this point.
Shower facilities and BBQ will be available. There will not be any traffic on the road ways.
Track proved to be lacking in participation. Those in attendance were treated to a high degree of officiating and we thank the Ottawa Lions Club and all officials.
Looking to great expectations for this year's events.
