A Day, A Week, Hemant, A Year

This past Saturday was the company Golf Tournament and Family Fun Day. The event was out at the Rosthern, Saskatchewan Valley Regional Park. The format was a Texas Scramble (best ball) with around ten foursomes in the tournament. The weather was looking fairly questionable since Saskatoon and area was hit by a massive thunderstorm the night before. Even though Saturday looked quite gloomy as well, the rain did hold off allowing the day to be enjoyed by all.

My team ended up finishing at four over par which was good enough to claim second place. This got me a ten dollar gift certificate to SportChek. I could have used that in the morning since I had just bought some golf balls at that very store prior to the tournament. I was also about ten feet away from winning the “closest to the pin” contest on the ninth hole - I blame the wind for this.

Following the tournament was dinner and a Bocce tournamnet (which I didn’t participate in). Steak, chicken, hot dogs, corn, and veggies were grilled to perfection and everyone stuffed themselves silly. The steak was incredible. Following dinner, Jeffrey, Rachel, Ryan (Cey), and I went to the park where we were extremely excited to go down this big, fifty foot tube slide. There was a faint smell of urine in the slide, but that didn’t hold us back. When we got down and our backsides were slightly wet, our poor decision was fully realized.

I took some pictures with my little point-and-shoot, and you can see them here and here.
