They twisted a lot of arms getting some gifts donated. I would also like to thank Wesmac for donating the free curling time, paying for the rink time. Of course, all the agencies that donated, News/North, Inkit, CIBC, CJCD, NorthwesTel, MicroAge, Mack Travel, and also Matco Transportation, NTPC, NWT Housing Corporation, and RWED. I would also like to thank Ernie Comerford who helped with the scheduling and with the draws. I would also like to thank Vera Raschke who also worked very hard twisting a lot of arms for gifts. In fact, she was the main organizer and someone mentioned it was a fix because she won the tournament. In fact, I loaned her my tapes as well. Thank you.
