RCC INTER-CLUB BONSPIELS: The Big Pumpkin: 1986
This was the fifth inter-club version of the Big Pumpkin, and for the first time, the main event was won by a Rochester team. Another Rochester team won the third event, and two were event runners-up – so, all RCC teams played in finals! This was the last time we had a Main Event, Second Event, etc. because in 1987, we procured trophies (for the first three events).
