Golf Tournament and Silent Auction

Golf Tournament
Despite a cold and rainy April day, sixty-four golfers registered for the first annual JL Jordan Catholic School Golf Tournament! Nancy Ker from Sunnidell Golf Club was most helpful in getting our brave and hardy golfers off to a great start at noon! Many thanks to Steve Clark, Mark Musca, Stephanie Pankow-Gray, Marg Shea Lawrence for sponsoring a child to participate in this tournament.

Tournament Coordinator, Robin Reil, had a wonderful time with his team of three young students. He found this to be a learning experience for his young charges. They learned about the golf ball washer, the lost balls in the bushes and learned not to use the golf club as a hockey stick or baseball bat.

Congratulations to the Carroll team of Ryan, Earl, Jason and Noelle for winning the top scoring team award in the scramble division. Matt and Carter Reil braved the cold to win the top scoring parent and child team award. Lucky Matt Reil also won the 50:50 draw! Grade 6 teacher, Jennifer Morris' team was awarded the Most Honest Golfers award.
Prizes for the golfers were donated by: Lisa Mastin, Joe Jordan, Gord Brown MP, Starbucks, OFIX – Dave Mallory, Jim Jordan, Kelsey’s, Luna Pizzeria, CDSBEO, Lake 88.1 FM (Perth), Brockville YMCA. Trophies were graciously donated by Kathy and Robin Reil.
We hope that by suffering today, we will have wonderful weather on May 5th build day! We sincerely thank our sponsors, participants, and volunteers who made our 2012 tournament and silent auction a success.
