CWSGA 91st ANNUAL TOURNAMENT
DEERHURST RESORT, HUNTSVILLE ONTARIO
SEPTEMBER 3rd – 7th,
2013
National Executive members, Provincial Executive
members and members of the CWSGA, it is with great pleasure that I present the
Tournament Chair report for our 91st year.
We are returning to Deerhurst Resort 5 years after the
86th Annual Tournament was held here. The welcome, organization and
expertise of the golf staff have been exceptional. Director of Golf, Danny
Jackson, Highlands Manager, Kyle Dalgleish, Lakeside Manager, Jay White and
their entire staff have been instrumental in providing me, as your Tournament
Chair, and you, as participants, with a truly memorable experience.
The official Tournament Chair Manual was rewritten by Ann Pate after last
year’s tournament at Manoir Richelieu to update procedures and redefine
responsibilities. I want to thank Ann for her amazing work that will stand the
test of time for years to come. I will be rewriting and updating the Scoring
Manual for the CWSGA computer program over the off season to be added to the
Tournament Chair Manual.
137 applications were accepted, New Brunswick 11,
Quebec 50, Ontario 76. There was
no need for a waiting list this year because of the ability to utilize both the
Highlands for Stroke Play and Lakeside for the Stableford competitions. We had
12 cancellations giving us a field of 125. This broke down into 106 in Stroke
Play and 19 in Stableford. The Veterans low gross competition had 15
competitors and the Grandmothers low net competition had 51 players.
My job as Tournament Chair would not be possible
without the invaluable help of the Organizing Committee consisting of Donna
Howell, Chief Score Keeper Extraordinaire , Carroll Baker, Lee Fisher, Gayle
Grant, Ginny Green, Judy
Keefe, Elinor McKergow and Suzanne
Miles. They all wore many hats and did wonderful jobs. Thank you ladies it was
a pleasure working and, more importantly, having lots of fun with you! Special
thanks also go out to Jill Paton, Ontario President and Betsy Swaine, National
Treasurer for their wonderful help and support.
It has been a pleasure and an honour to serve as this
year’s Tournament Chair.
Respectfully submitted,
Mj. Stewart, Tournament Chair
