Final posting for 2016.

The Pavilion is quiet today, most people having left.

The final Team dinner last evening was an enjoyable affair. The main guests were Lt.Col. and Mrs. Simon  Rushen, representing CDLS, and Mrs. Marion Evans, former manager of the Pavilion. A specially engraved medals was presented to John Marshall to commemorate his first coming to Bisley 60 years ago. Patrick Champagne won the Gerry Ouellette Award and Jim Paton the Victoria Rifles Trophy as, respectively, the top Canadian Under 24 and Top Canadian overall in the Grand. With so many people leaving early this morning, the festivities did not go on very late. 

So Bisley is over for another year. I would not presume to comment on the Canadian Team's performance - that will be for the Team Officers to report. I'd like to thank those who have read these daily ramblings and hope they have provided a few sparks of interest and information.
