We are celebrating the life of Chris Thompson and the commitment that he made to the CCIAC for more than 50 years as a player, coach, mentor and friend.
We will be having a tree planted in his memory at the Calgary Irish fields on June 20th at 5:30pm. We will have a memorial bench located at the fields alongside the tree.
We would like to see as many people come out to celebrate and recognize “The Admiral” for all his contributions to the club and to the whole rugby community in Calgary, Alberta and Canada.
Thank you to all those who have donated to this cause and, especially to Phil Paxton for the donation of the tree, and organizing, and building, the bench, along with Mike, Chris’ son-in-law.
