The Snow(shoe) (Base)ball Effect

By Todd Curran

The Cougar's Sports Bar 24th Annual Snowshoe Baseball Tournament in Turner Valley was a successful spectacle once again.

Held over the March 25th to 27th weekend, the charitable event proved a riot for players and a great help for Baby Jillian, the tournament's beneficiary. At just 18 weeks old, Jillian Boudreau's mother passed away, but the baby is in the loving care of her father and Cougar's owner Lori Collins hopes the funds raised through the tournament will make things a little easier for them.

When the dust and snow settled, the L.O.F.T team beat out four others for championship status and the Gunt Hunters were crowned Toilet Bowl champions.
With live music, a chili cook-off and a comedic awards ceremony, you may want to put your own snowshoe softball team together for next year. If you're not a player, just come out for good food, good fun and a good cause.

In the realm of entertaining fundraisers, Cougar’s hit a grand slam with this tournament!
