Knut Berg Charity Tourney 2024

In 1994, the club honored VLBC (VBCC) life-time member Knut Berg with a tournament in his name in appreciation of the numerous ways he contributed to the club. It was Knut’s wish that this event be a charity fundraiser.

Although Knut has moved away from Victoria, he is fondly remembered by all who knew and bowled with him over the years.

On September 2nd, sixty+ members came to bowl, play croquet and enjoy a mid-afternoon BBQ. The Kitchen Hospitality crew headed by Kathy Moi-Barker provided another delicious side of salads and condiments to accompany the Smokies barbecued by Richard C. and Peter M. Thanks to all who worked so hard so the rest of us could play and enjoy!

Victoria Hospice was again the charity recipient of choice. A total of $2,200 was raised at this year’s event. Winners of the Knut Berg Tournament were John Wigle and Chris Jones.

John and Chris win the 1-game tourney by point differential.
