Spring has sprung, the ‘grass is riz,’ I wonder where the golfers is!
A beautiful warm day greeted 21 keen golfers on our starting day of another season at March Meadows Golf Club in Honeymoon Bay.
Our usual 9 a.m. start was delayed a bit by frost on the greens, but by 10:30 a.m. we were peeling off layers as the day warmed up.
The golf on the other hand was not so hot as most players were a little rusty after not playing much over the winter.
Earl Laforge had a chip-in par which helped him win the low gross award for the day.
Don Cochrane won the low net award. Gerry Janzen had a chip-in birdie. Ray Bourassa and Jug Kalar were KP (closest to the pin) on the par threes.
We play every Tuesday from now until October. Any players over 50 years of age are welcome to join us for golf and a light lunch.
You do not have to be a member of the golf club to join us. We make up different foursomes each week so you get to play with a variety of players. There is a sign up sheet by the pro shop door.
Remember, as the Duffer says, “It’s better to get up early for a game of golf than it is to sleep in and mow the lawns!”
