The first ever St. Ignatius Church and School Golf Scramble took place on Friday, March 26th at the North Sound Club. The teams of four enjoyed blue skies and calm winds with a 1:00 pm shotgun start. The warm temperatures were soon matched by the hot competition on the golf course!
The winning team was Joel Dodson, Andy Stepaniuk, Greg Bennett and Toni Pinkerton, with a net score of 50.75. Second place went to Deny Edward, Mark Thompson, Steve Euston and Lito Retumban, with a net score of 53.25. Third place went to Kirk Duval, Stephen Duval, Robert Tiofilo and Robert Ebanks, with a net score of 53.37. All three teams won gift vouchers from the pro shop.
Closest to the pin winners were Joel Dodson on hole 9 and Dave Loomis on hole 13. Longest drive winners were Samantha Widmer on hole 2 and Stephen Duval on hole 12. Clay Batson won the putting contest in dramatic fashion, holing a 70 foot putt to edge out Madge Tompkins at the end of the day. The best dressed award went to Tom Sperandeo.
After the competition the golfers received a number of prizes during the awards presentation and everyone enjoyed a nice buffet dinner catered by Signature Events.
