Reigning co-champion Jason Vaillant teamed up with new partner Tracy Krull, going undefeated through 5 rounds to claim the title.🏆

The evening also included a very competitive game of Left Right & Centre (congrats Kenz! 👏), great food, lots of laughs, and a beautiful sunset over the lake.

A pretty great way to spend an evening! ☺️
