Ladies Golf at Chinook Cove to hold cancer fundraiser

Golf report for July 29, 2014, re: Ladies Tuesday Night Golf at Chinook Cove Golf

Here, There and Everywhere...this Beatle’s tune describes where my golf ball went on Tuesday night.  49 or 50 ladies (I am not sure which) turned out on very hot afternoon to take part in the Chinook Cove Ladies’ Golf Night.  Even though my golf game wasn’t the best I still had a fantastic time.  Spending time with friends is a great way to while away a warm summer afternoon and evening.  I did have one nice long putt and was pleased to pick up the Shais Designs certificate for doing so.

The Thompson Valley Awards prizes for Flight 1 went to Carol Hindle (low gross of 47) and Debbie Rainer (low net of 33 (48).  Stamer Logging sponsored Flight 2.  Low gross went to Abbey Bates who scored 50 by retro and low net went to Jeannie Webber with the same score.  Ron Wallace Trucking sponsored Flight 3.  First low gross went to Gwen Travis with a score of 52 and second low gross went to Mel Shepherd with a score of 54.  And Abbey Bates great playing didn’t stop at low gross.  She also scored a deuce to pick up the deuce pot and a KP on Hole 4 (Bondar Forest Planning).

Babes Shanko was a double winner - a long putt on Hole 1 (Val Bella Studio) and a long drive on Hole 9 (Station House Restaurant).  Sue Paulhus had a good round with a long putt on Hole 5 (Country Store Antiques) and getting closest to the golfer on Hole 1 (AG Foods).  Evelyn Lucas had a long drive on Hole 3 (Barriere Timber Mart) and a long drive on Hole 5 (Crystlee’s Hair Design).  Deb Rainer had a KP on Hole 4 (Campbell & Company) and KP in 2 on Hole 7 (Estylo Hair Design).  Sandy Hultman had a KP on Hole 4 (Carl’s Market Garden) and a long drive on Hole 9 (Rainer Custom Cutting).  Jeannie Webber had a long putt on Hole 2 to win the Armour Mtn Office Services prize.  Mel Shepherd had a long drive on Hole 2 to win the Barriere A & W certificate.  Ilke Marais had a long drive on Hole 5 to win the Barriere Massage certificate.  Kelly Simons had a KP on Hole 6 to win the EBL Ventures prize.  Ashley Salle had a long putt on Hole 8 to add to her collection of cups from Pottery by Ramona.  Trudy Forsythe had a long putt on Hole 8 to win the Knights Inn certificate.  The Interior Savings Credit Union putting prize was split between Lindsay Arcard (14) and Tara Murphy (27).

Of course, once a week with the girls just isn’t enough so on Wednesday Debbie, Donna, Val and I went on a road trip.  Had a fantastic day at Eagleridge and managed to survive the heat.  Thanks for a great outing, Ladies!

We are just a couple of weeks away from the Cancer Fund-Raiser (August 19th).  If you haven’t booked your team and carts yet you had best do it soon.  We are asking golfing to raise pledges for our local chapter of the Cancer Society.  Funds raised will go towards helping local folks with the high costs of fighting cancer.  It is a fun night and the $40 fee includes golf, cart, dinner and prizes.  The cost is $30 for those ladies who have already paid their green fees.
