Wow, what an incredible day it was. Thunderstorms were forecasted for the day and unbelievably the rain and storms didn't appear! We had a gorgeous day for golf and a wonderful dinner and silent auction. I talked to so many people some of whom I hadn't spoken to or seen in such a long time. My voice was hoarse by the end of the night but I was so happy. The committee of Marty, Al, Randy, Derek, Gord, Sharon and Carole are the most incredible group of people and so many others helped. I'm going to attempt to mention a few who helped out at the event and please don't be upset if I miss you............you are all so great and know that you are very much appreciated.
