Where should we go for the 2017 Sandbagger?

Bass Lake has been wonderful of late but I am thinking we should return to our roots and venture further afield for this year’s Sandbagger.

I will welcome your input.  Here are just a few options…

  • Tremblant’s diabolical Diable?
  • Belleville’s Black Bear?
  • Smugglers Glen?
  • Malone? – site of the inaugural Sandbagger eons ago

And, if someone has a suggestion for a new venue, let’s hear it…Just keep in mind that we have people travelling from Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal.

Once we have a location, the date is next…Friday September 8 through Sunday, September 10 would align with our usual starting point for this discussion (the first full weekend after the labour day weekend).  Thoughts?

Please help us decide by entering comments below…

The Sandbagger has grown on us

As Rick Cunliffe has pointed out, we have ran out of room on our magnificent Sandbagger trophy.
Ever the engineer, and inspired by dreams of the Stanley Cup, Rick decided that a base was required.  As reigning champ (i.e., in possession of the trophy) Ricky generously took it upon himself to get this done.   Having “opted for the rarest African Kinowa Mahogany” for the base, Rick has proposed a surcharge of $250 per player to cover the costs collectively.   He says he trusts we will all be good with his choice and has asked that Sandbaggers forward money orders at your earliest convenience.
Sandbagger II

Sandbagger II: “just look at that sheen”, says 3 time champ Ricky Cunliffe.
