RBC Bid 2014

VernonCentral.ca is delighted to host this section devoted to the bid for the 2014 RBC Cup. We believe that bringing the tournament to Vernon would boost the local economy and contribute to community spirit.

We share the bid committee's goal of contributing to a regional event, a 10-day celebration of athletics and culture that can bring people together from all parts of the North Okanagan. But it won't be restricted to locals – the bid committee has plans to entice visitors from all the regions that send their championship teams to the RBC Cup.

As you've seen, VernonCentral.ca focuses on the local scene, including the Vipers. This coverage of the RBC Cup is a natural extension of that coverage.

In the weeks and months to come, this corner of VernonCentral.ca will post feature stories, interviews, and videos. We'll keep you updated on the progress of the bid, starting today. Hopefully, at the end of May we'll celebrate good news when the 2014 RBC Cup is awarded to Greater Vernon.

Then, the real fun will begin!
