The Club lost a friend and fellow pitcher this morning as Jim Kenney passed away after a hard fought battle against cancer. Jim was inducted into the Club Hall of Fame in September in his first year of eligibility for his dedication to Club and his success at the pits. We will miss you Jim. ... Condolences to his wife, Dianne, his son Jamie and family and his daughter Christa and her family.

Congrats to Vera Menzie and Blair Lacey on winning the Hot Stove VI horseshoe tournament at Fraser Farm yesterday. This is the last horseshoe tournament for the 2020 season for the Club. The Club is looking forward to 2021 and is always looking for new members to come out and pitch at Fraser Farm!

Due to rain on Saturday, the Hot Stove Tournament is on Sunday which is suppose to bring us sunny skies and temp in the high 50s! See everyone on Sunday!

This evening the Club inducted Jim Kenney into the St. Stephen Horseshoe Pitchers Club Hall of Fame.
