This year we were able to raise $ 3,000 for the Alberta Cancer Foundation , which brings the total in the last ten years to approximately $ 21,000 . Thanks to all of the golfers and sponsors who had such a great time and were able to help us raise this amount . This kind of support is encouraging as we may be able to , in some small way , help to find a cure for this disease .
Next year , we will once again hold the tournament at River Bend in Red Deer on Tuesday , September 3 . We encourage all male retired teachers to join us in such a worthwhile cause and in having such a great time .
We are especially grateful to our major sponsors Canwest Travel of
Red Deer , River Bend Golf Club , Henry ’ s Eavestroughing of Red Deer , Ron Olney ( Sun Life ) and Johnson Inc .
Our thanks is extended as well to the rest of our sponsors who very generously donated enough prizes that every golfer went home with something .
Current members of the tournament committee will be stepping down after this year . It has been a good run , but after nineteen years , we need some new blood with some new ideas .
Anyone wishing to get on the mailing list and to join us next year should contact Norm McDougall at 403-347-3491 or Don Taylor at 403-342-5493 . Larry Pizzey , Low Net , 62
