FAIRMONT MOUNTAINSIDE MEN’S CLUB

On a warm but breezy July 20, 33 members turned out to compete in a four-man, two best net team effort. Ed English, Scott Powell, Paul Barrett and Barry Jonas came in first.

Barrett, Stew Slack and Garry Thompson landed K.P.s. as did, of course, John Denhamer, who also rolled in a deuce. Paul Neilson also took a deuce award.

Our monthly camp event on July 27 was won by none other than Bill Clarke, with a low net of 65.  Howard Stafford, Jim Villeneuve and Sandy Trigg rolled in deuces.

K.P. awards went to Frank Ashworth, Wayne Geiger, Kirk Dawson and Dave Gibson.

The interclub challenge between Riverside and Mountainside on August 3 at the Mountainside course concluded in a split. The accompanying four-man team, two best net competition was won by Ron Wolff, John Zedic, Lawrie Nichol and Ashworth.

Closest to the pin awards went to Larry Rehaume, Powell, Ken Monroe and Slack.

Powell, Monroe, Slack and Dave Gibson rolled in deuces.

Our strongest congratulations to Glenn Findley, our new Archie Guthrie Seniors Tournament Champ, who took the event over a two-day competition August 17 and 19 with a low net of 66. Cal MacPherson was not far behind.
