Scouting This Years RBC Cup:

Three members of the Vernon RBC Cup bid committee 3-4
have been in Humboldt this week.

Betty and Don Klepp were there for the opening
ceremonies and the tournament’s opening games.

On his way home from business meetings in Eastern
Canada, Chris Collard spent Wednesday and Thursday
in Humboldt.

“It was like a homecoming for us,” says Betty. We lived
in Saskatoon most of our lives and Don used to scout
the Saskatchewan league in rinks such as Humboldt.”

Both of them were very pleased with their reception.
“When we told them why we were there,” says Betty,
they went out of their way to answer our questions and
share their tips for running a successful tournament.”

“In fact,” adds Don, when the word spread that we were
there, members of their leadership group looked for us
so they could welcome the Vernon representatives and
tell us what they’ve learned.”
