We are saddened to learn that Honourary Member Philip Downey passed away on June 28th, 2025. Phil was a member of the original organizing team that started the HCC, one of a few committed people who invested the time and money needed to begin the construction of the building. Phil served as President during a stressful time when our membership lagged, using his leadership and influence in the community to encourage and engage other local Carp community members and leaders to support the club. Under his stewardship the club grew with expansion to the club we have today.
Phil's energetic personality, his willingness to get involved and his leadership were a major factor in the early development and success of the club. Phil enjoyed both the competitive and social side of the game, a friend to many, a true ambassador for HCC.
He will be missed by his many friends and family.
