2010 Evergreen Summer Doubles

In lieu of a Summer Solstice party, the Evergreen Squash Club celebrates summer with a doubles tournament. This annual event is a mainstay of the Greater Vancouver doubles community. It is an opportunity to celebrate the easy living of summer, and a chance to assess one's waning skills.

This year's event will be held Monday, 2010.07.12 to Sunday, 2010.07.18, 2010. With a number of venues used for the matches.

Thanks to a number of volunteers, and Don Smerch, there are always enough snacks to keep the competitors, and guests, from completely starving while catching the matches. The Saturday night party, to which those attending contribute, is traditionally hosted in the home of one of our generous members.

With the summer looming large, with the generosity of the sponsors and volunteers, and with the hearty competition, it is definitely an event to add to your calendar early in the year. You don't want to miss it.

Annual Grouse Grind Challenge
in Memory of Denis Fontaine

This is not a race, as you know, but a challenge against yourself. Guess your own time — closest to their time (male & female) wins.

Goes with out saying that no watches, cell phones or GPS devices allowed.

Back to the club for wind down, food, etc. Down tickets (gondola) are not provided (ensure you bring the funds to purchase one).

Entry is minimum $10 donation, which goes to charity — North Shore Rescue.

Event host is Richard Dustan.

(Many of us just take some time to list all our ailments to Richard Dustan, and the others, before apologizing—again—for not being able to take part. Of course, we still contribute to North Shore Rescue.)

Summer Doubles Sextathlon

The hardy crowd use the event as an opportunity to test themselves and raise a little money for charity by competing in the Summer Doubles Sextathlon. It is open to one and all — but, only the most hardy survive.

If you think you have what it takes, you will be required to complete the following events:

  • Doubles Event 1
