• Group A: Larch Hills’ surge continues, passing Sovereign Lake and then Caledonia in the last few days, and they’re now hot on the heels of Telemark, last year’s winner, for first place. Larch Hills’ momentum might be stemming from their new chalet expansion? Good luck to all.

As mentioned last week, Sovereign Lake and Caledonia were the two largest clubs in Canada last year, and they have a friendly wager on who will be the largest this year. But at the rate that Telemark grew last year, might they both lose this wager?
