September 2014
Dear Fellow Members and Friends,
I
am very happy to update you on our recent National Tournament at the
Chateau Montebello. We had our largest registration in memory, with 155
golfers signed up for stroke play and stableford format at the Chateau
Montebello course and the nearby Heritage course. The weatherman was on
our side: we enjoyed three days of warmth and sunshine, thus upping the
smile quotient for all. At the annual meeting on September 4, the
national executive officers from New Brunswick were appointed for the
next two years: National President Jennie Duncan, National Treasurer
Cherie Henry, and National Secretary Gillian Wallace.
I do wish to congratulate our tournament champion for 2014, Nancy
Layton, who turned in two fine rounds of 77 to win the trophy for the
third time.
We
also welcomed 12 members from the US Senior Women's Golf Association,
who joined us to contest the Ann Taylor Green Trophy. The CWSGA team,
ably captained by Pam Frost, came out the winner in a very close
contest.
Great
thanks for a happy and successful tournament to the Quebec Tournament
Committee of President Eileen Hamilton, Tournament Chair Gail Blake,
Event Co-ordinator and Vice-President Barb Langley, and Prize Chair
Greer Gorick. Their committee's attention to detail, and the charming
ambiance of Chateau Montebello, made for a wonderful event.
Thanks as well to Barb Moysey, who again produced a video of the tournament. Yes, we did have fun!!! Please click here for a link to her video, and click here for tournament results. Click Here for photos of the Trophy winners.
I
hope you have a wonderful fall, and look forward to seeing many of you
at our Florida satellite tournament in Fort Myers in February. Lynn
Clappison, Betsy Swaine and I thank you for the honour of acting as your
National Executive over the past two years.
With best wishes,
Gail Todgham
