Do you need to ask?
Was it the superb BBQ’ing delivered up by ‘Mr. Backyard’ domestic chef Brian Tremblay or the unmatched play of the confident Durham College engineering student Taylor Brooks who posted a nifty first place result of 86 points covering his 10th games. Along the way during his learning years ‘Little Brooker’ gained his natural ability honestly receiving excellent advice from his father Jimmy. His grand-dad Ralph ‘Red’ whose a proven player while uncle’s John and Gregory are talented and proven players over the years.
By looks of it, Taylor has more talent and ability his noted immediately family when it comes to cards.

His lowest performance happened playing with Ron ‘Batman’ Hele scoring a mere 3 points.

Placing Brooks in the top ten were Shirley ‘Mighty Mite’ Robinson, George Schnaider, ‘Eli-Ken’ Cain, Matthew Dressing, the Logan’s, Gloria and Mike, Jacquier, Bill Dressing and Kenny Graves.
For his brilliant effort the Oshawa Charity Euchre executive presented him with a new $20.00 bill. On the season he has won $64.00.
Meanwhile Brian Tremblay deserves equal billing along side Brooks. His delicious BBQ cooking gave Brooks the strength to perform so well. Afterall he devoured 3 mansize burgers and a couple oversized ‘ball park franks. Should Tremblay ever fail at his high profile government position being the commander and chief at the Whitby passport office he’s guaranted employment flipping burgers/dogs at any of the nearby fast food outlets.
