This year's Winter in July Joe Hattori Memorial Fundraiser Squash Tournament was
yet another success. While it was a scorching 34 degrees in the Okanagan
Valley, the 37 participants worked hard on the squash courts playing
over 90 competitive matches in: Men's Open/A, B, C/D and Women's C/D
categories! The tournament commenced on Friday, July 11 with Final
Matches and prize ceremony on Sunday afternoon. Saturday was an action
packed day, with matches, outdoor BBQ and live musical entertainment by
two local bands, Bansais and Hippiecritz! The greatest highlight of the
event was the overwhelming contributions to the Silent Auction 2020
Fundraiser.
Through the generous donations of several local businesses
and private donors, as well as the contributions of our squash players, this
year's WIJ Joe Hattori Memorial Fundraiser raised $1,627 towards the Vancouver Foundation's 2020 Fund! An inspiring
event, as we support Joe Hattori's legacy of bringing squash to young
people. We hope to see everyone back next year!
