Our Coach, Lloyd Gauthier, extends season greetings and best wishes of pars, birdies and lots of fun for the New Year.
Looking back over the past year Lloyd has highlighted a few events that were special in his view. Who could forget the Olympics as they held the attention of Vancouver, the Country and the World. What a fitting end with a gold medal hockey win as "Sid the Kid" put the puck in the net and sent millions of Canadians into sheer joy.
Next on the list of great memories of 2010 was Lloyd's 13th hole in one. It was April 19th, 2010, he was playing his annual game with good friend Charlie Maxwell at the Squamish Golf and Country Club in BC. It was the 6th hole measuring some 140 yards, the hole was aced using a 7 iron.
Not far behind number 13 in Lloyd's mind was the annual July 1st Watermelon Open Golf Tournament in Victoria. Not only did everyone have fun but the event was topped by a great display of fireworks observed from the 17th floor of the hotel.
Lloyd had his own awards ceremony at the annual Coach and Friends Dinner in Victoria on October 16th, 2010.
Lloyd congratulated and acknowledged the following;
Most improved golfer...Garry Lamontang, from Regina.
Random Act of Kindness went to Dave Irvine of Victoria.
The Diamond of the Year Award was well deserved and given to Dorthy Cowell, Lloyd's mother.
Special Guest Award was accepted by Ian and Malissa McGill from Louisiana.
The Longest Flight Award was presented to Jerry and Susan Dutka all the way from Florida.
Lloyd wants all his friends and students to know that the greatest joy he experiences is when his students are able to make improvements in their game and just have more fun. He looks forward to the Spring when he can once again reconnect with all of you on the Golf Course.
The Best of This Holiday Season...Merry Christmas...See You In The Spring
Your Coach and Friend...Lloyd Gauthier
