Organizers are thanking the community for supporting a local golf tournament.
The 17th annual William G. Rose Memorial Golf Tournament was held in Wawa last Friday, and organizer Danette Mathias says it was "a huge success", thanking those who supported the tournament.
A record 171 golfers participated in the tournament, with four teams going home winners: for the Men's Division, Eden Leadbetter, Max Simon, and Anders Morden with a score of 30; for the Ladies, Linda Paddock, Brenda Pelletier, and Amanda Huff with a score of 38; for the Mixed Division, Jeff Amos, Donna Korytko, and Christian Crosset with a score of 31; and for the Seniors, Ray Baronette, Betty McGie, and John Scott with a score of 33.
Named in honour of former Michipicoten Police Chief William G. Rose, the tournament raises funds for two bursaries for local students going into the law enforcement or emergency services field.
