Another quarter century of seminary golf tournaments began on Monday, 5 June 2017, as seventy-six golfers gathered at the Sawmill Golf Course in Fenwick, Ontario, for the seminary’s 26th annual tournament.
Good-natured participants bought mulligans for $5 a piece (kind of like indulgences!), and the tournament was made fair to all with a “best ball” format (kind of like sharing the merits of the saints!). But none of these good works could stop the best team from winning, again. 
Prizes went to the winner of a putting contest, the longest drive, and closest to the pin. Alas, no one claimed the $10,000 hole-in-one prize on offer from Intact Insurance! After the game came the usual enjoyment of a chicken-and-ribs supper, cold beer, and good conversation. What a great way to support the seminary! Keep the first Monday of June open on your calendar and look forward to news of next year’s tournament.
Many thanks go out to Hugh Weltz of FaithLife Financial and the RaeLipskie Partnership for sponsoring the meal, to our numerous hole sponsors, and especially to the Julie family for being such generous and hospitable hosts.
