Tremendous golf tourney turnout
Posted Monday, June 29, 2009 by derekm

It was a hot day as the combattants hit the links for the Cornwall Curling Club's annual golf tournament at the Countryview Golf Course. As part of Countryview's tenth anniversary celebrations, course owners Carl and Karen Currie had just opened two new holes, turning the best-ball tourney into an 11 hole event.

Here's a couple of shots of some of the teams finishing up:

While the last teams were still out on the course, the early-finishers kept to the shady part of the deck, and kept hydrated with copious quantities of liquids.

Meanwhile, Karen Currie grilled up burgers and dogs to feed the hungry golfers.

Finally, the last teams finished play, and it was time for the awards ceremony.

It turned out that the last team on the course, a three-person team consisting of Bob Fowler, Bev (Nucker) Richards, and Dan MacRae (who seemed to know his way around the course) emerged the winners, with an amazing three under par. Organizer Rick Doiron was determined not to give the trophy to any team containing Bob Fowler, and presented them each with a golf ball instead.

Finally, he relented, and brought out the trophy.

Other winners included:

Closest to pin number 8 (women) - Tracy Affleck

Closest to pin number 8 (men) - Dick St.John

Closest to pin on new par 3 - Bob Fowler

Closest to the line - Bob Tucker

Ladies Long Drive - Krista Affleck

Men's long drive - Rob Young

The last prize presented was for the "most determined" team, which included Paul Arsenault and Mary Plamondon.

After the awards, door prizes were drawn for those present. As usual, very few, if any, went home empty-handed.

The great weather resulted in one of the largest turnouts ever, around 60 participants. Incoming curling club president John DeLuca was on hand to thank the golfers, and the organizers, including Bob Fowler, Rick Doiron, Carol Sweetapple, Ray Biage, and Karen and Carl Currie, and said that he hoped to see everyone back at the Cornwall Curling Club in October.
