RCC INTER-CLUB BONSPIELS: The Big Pumpkin: 1987
This was the sixth inter-club version of the famous Big Pumpkin, which was won by Harry Hunter's team from Ottawa. Hunter was a second event winner in 1986, and viced a team that won the main event in 1985. This was the first time we had trophies (at least for the first three events). Semi-related, Rochester won the fourth event.
