It was another great year for the Williams Lake Seniors Golf Club, says Arnie Zimmerman.

“Everyone enjoyed the comradeship,” Zimmerman says. “Mark, the golf course superintendent and his crew again did an excellent job getting the course in great condition.”

He says the seniors are still looking for more senior golfers.

If you are 55-plus please come and join the group every Wednesday morning. Annual seniors golf registration is $15. with lunch provided free of charge at the fall general meeting.

Contact president Tom Essery at 250-392-2893 or Arnie Zimmerman at 250-392-5451 or contact any member for more information.

Special golf cart rental rates are given to all senior golfers who do not own a golf cart.

In many cases seniors can ride with golfers who do own a cart.

“We are like a big happy family and we help each other whenever we can,” Zimmerman says.

“On Sept. 16 we played the Seniors Club championship on the front nine holes and on Sept. 23 we played the final round on the back nine,” Zimmerman says.

“We split the golf rounds up into two Wednesdays as a few seniors find it difficult golfing 18 holes in one day.

On the men’s side Arnie Zimmerman won the low net; Alex Wasylenko won the low gross. On the women’s side Floris Martineau won the low net by retrogression and Ellen Wiege won the low gross.
