The weather for our three round golf tournament was not co-operative but we made the best of it and had a good tournament and a good time. There were some outstanding performances and I congratulate all of the golfers for their efforts. Elaine Cronin and I are so fortunate to be involved with a large group of people who rarely complain and are always willing to help. You all make our job of coordinating the league as easy as possible.

 Glenese Doughherty won the Ladies ‘A’ Flight for the second year and Pat Maslovich won the ‘B’ Flight; Virginia Howells shot three great rounds to take the ‘C’ Flight. There were many old friends participating in the tournament and it was exciting to see many new members and first timers playing.

 The Men’s division was very interesting, as the first two men in each flight had the same score and it was necessary to have a meeting of the Rules Committee to resolve the winners. This was done by taking the totals of the two rounds on the most difficult hole and the lowest score out of the two players was declared the winner. Bill Crosmas won the Men’s ‘A’ Flight, Jack Tusini, despite a bad back won the ‘B’ flight and Les Kimmerer was successful in the ‘C’ Flight.

 The spreadsheet showing each golfer and their scores are shown to the right.

 I thank Kat Whittaker for working so hard to keep the site current.

 Yesterday, Saturday 6 March was our Golf Banquet with recognition of the players and the awards to the winners. The ceremony of the “Gold” jackets presentations were made with Elaine Cronin helping the overall men’s winner, Bill Crosmas to fit snuggly into his jacket and Malcolm Quinn assisted the ladies overall winner, Glenese Dougherty don the ladies jacket for the second time in a row.

 The meal by Dave Dubuc and his crew was terrific, the Juke Box Hero kept the music going and the dancing lively and there were many prizes to share throughout the evening.

The major raffle prize, a picture of Sanibel Lighthouse was won by David and Maria Bowness.

 Most of the attendees agreed that the banquet was a success.

 Our official golf season continues to the end March and the scores from the beginning of the tournament until the end of the season will be the start of your handicaps for next season.
