June 20, 2012 - Chipman-Zeneca Golf and Dinner

Last week was our 15^th annual golf tournament and dinner; sixteen brave people played golf under sunny, hot and humid skies. Golfers made it back to the club house before a heavy downpour. Nearly 50 people joined us for refreshments and dinner. It was a great opportunity to visit with former employees and renew old friendships. People came from far and wide. Jim Reid, Bob and Lynn Woods travelled from Pennsylvania while Ed Johnson joined us from Iowa.

The golf tournament was a modified best ball event and the foursome of Caroline Neilson-Dykstra, Clarence McCloskey, Steve Babulal and his friend Gord McIlwaith had the lowest score. They won the Fern Plante Memorial Trophy. Bernard St-Martin had the longest drive and Wayne Ingell was the most accurate player by driving his shot only inches from the target. Gord McIlwaith chipped his shot closest to the pin. After dinner, Ed Johnson strummed his guitar and sang a few songs. He has not lost his touch.

A special thanks to Wayne Ingell and Blair Clark for a well organized event. As tradition goes, next year’s tournament will be organized by this year’s winning team. We look forward to getting together once again next June.
