The adjudicating panel for the Alv Erlingsson Trophy is pleased to announce that the co-winners for 2018 are Sophie Hesling and Emma Giles. The citation for the award can be found near the bottom of this page . Congratulation to the recipients! The panel was most impressed by the energy and skill-levels of all of the participants, over a wide range of sports. The addition of kubb to our selection of competitive events was especially noteworthy. (Thanks, again, Ashley!) The 2018 plaque been added to the trophy: Some pictures from the 2018 summer events have been posted here . Contributions of additional photos would be appreciated so that these can be added over the coming days. A big "thank you" to everyone for making it such a great summer!

The Summer Games are Drawing to a Close

We're not quite  done yet, but the 2018 Summer Games are definitely winding down. And what a summer it's been so far! On a positive note, a record number of events have been included.  Unfortunately (and as usual), the adjudicators have observed a small number of rather dodgy attempts to garner points in questionable ways. To whit: competitive s'mores eating; overly exuberant shopping at the Quinte Mall; & unduly aggressive Tinder trolling! However, the points will be tallied shortly, and pictures will be posted on this blog. In the next few day you can expect to see the Grand Announcement about the winner(s) of the Alv Erlingsson Trophy for the summer of 2018! Don't touch that dial!

What Happens at the Lake..........

You know the rest of that expression...... Word around the lake this year is that there has been skinny dipping at #58! It could be just a rumour. On the other hand, it could be a brazen attempt to extend the opportunity for gathering points! No names will be revealed, of course. As always, the adjudicators' collective lips are tightly sealed!
