Oh Canada!
Stephen Walter got the event underway by piping the 50 or so members in attendance across the green to the flagpole where we sang “O Canada”. Shortly thereafter the draw was made and play got underway. Drawmasters for the event were Patricia and Clark Warren with keen help from Brent Stevens. After the Gents crunched the numbers, our winners were established. Brent presented the winners with their respective prize money.
- Tied for fourth place Doug Edge and Laura Bratton
- Third place was Kathy Percival
- Second place was James Chase
- Tied for top score – Ken Oherogge and Christine Warren!
Well done everyone! Thanks to everyone for attending!

Fabulous Fridays!
Our Aussie Pairs evening on June 28 was a huge success with 36 players and 18 teams! Lisa Whittall-Chuang got donations from various shops in downtown Oakville so that everyone went home with a gift!

Jennifer Aziz took the opportunity to encourage our novice players to enter the District Novice Aussie Pairs in Port Credit on Aug. 17, the District Novice Singles in Milton on Sept. 7 and our own Club Novice Championships on Aug. 24/25.
Our top three winners were as follows:

Please mark these dates on your calendar for our remaining Friday Nighters:
- July 26 – “YoYo”

- Sept. 20 – “YoYo”
What a Turnout!
What a fabulous turnout we had for our first club tournament of the year – 60 participants! Big thank you to our sponsor, Nurse Next Door for supplying our wonderful lunch. I wish to congratulate our first place team of Anne Wilkinson, Linda Arnold, Denny Chuang and Raheem McEwan.
A big thank you to our kitchen helpers of Sue Eadie, Zeljka Misura and Cynthia Self who worked hard to supply everyone with breakfast goodies, coffee, tea and cold beverages plus extras to go along with our pizza lunch. And finally a big thank you to Anne Wilkinson and Pat Jenner who are always early to help set up the green and who assisted with the scoring. I look forward to organizing our next Club Tournament on August 14, the Chris Curran Sr. Memorial Mixed Triples.
