agreed to take over he chairman s position on an interim basis The 1976 tournament is now upon us and lo and behold Mr Levy is still the driving force behind the The tournament was initiated in 1961 but really came into its own and began to attract provincial national and even in ternatlonol attention with the introduction of the Kinsmen into the affair In no small way this is due to the chairmanship provided by Harry Levy Harry is a well respected member of the Georgetown community serves on town council and is held In high esteem by his fellow Kin He never approaches a Job in half measures and it Is for this reason that the Bantam Tournament has flourished Harry originally Involved in the tournament because of the organizational challenge Tournament preparations officially get underway at least six months in advance and from this point on Harry finds himself slowly but surely immersed in the project From the scrutinizing of available teams to the mailing of Invitations even to ensuring that teams from distant communities have compatible schedules requires individual attention and these duties are bequeathed to the realm of Horry Levy The tournament under Mr Levy a
