BCC Members Welcome Home Cody Fox

Cody Fox has long been associated with the Brockville Country Club. He played in many curling leagues starting as a junior and throughout high school. He represented the BCC, TISS, EOSSA in many tournaments. He also worked part time at the BCC as one of our ice technicians. And then he joined the Canadian Forces and went to Afganistan. Completing his tour of duty in Afganistan, Cody recently returned to Brockville. BCC member Sid VanderMeuler suggested BCC should welcome Cody back (Cody seen in picture with parents Terry and Corry) by holding a bonspiel in his honour. The Club agreed and Bob Jordan said he would organize.

So Friday evening, Jan 21st, a "Welcome Home Cody" fun bonspiel was held in a "Doubles Curling" format under World Confederation Rules. Eight (8) ends of curling, a buffet compliments of BCC, and a lot of camaraderie. We are all proud of Cody for his service in Afganistan and it's great to have him home back safe and sound.
