The first annual Wesmen Athletics Golf Tournament was a huge success. The tournament took place on Wednesday, June 30 at the scenic St.Boniface Golf Club.
The tournament, which featured 140 golfers, raised funds for the Wesmen Athletics Scholarship fund. The tournament and banquet was hosted by University of Winnipeg President and Chancellor Dr.Lloyd Axworthy.
In addition to a round of golf, each golfer went home with many gifts, fabulous food and services from the St.Boniface Golf Club, and plenty of contest prizes, registration gifts and hole gifts supplied by the many corporate sponsors. A particular highlight was that each golfer received an NHL style Jonathan Toews hockey jersey.
The University of Winnipeg Wesmen would like to thank all the boosters, corporate sponsors, media, University of Winnipeg staff who made the first annual tournament a great success.
"It was an amazing event where we had current Wesmen players, alumni, staff, senior administration, boosters, corporate family, inner city leaders and avid golfers all together working on the common goal of raising scholarship dollars for our student athletes. The tournament was a success and has laid the groundwork for an even bigger and better event next year. Mark your calendars for the 2nd annual Wesmen Athletic Scholarship Golf Tournament on July 6, 2011”, said Doran Reid, University of Winnipeg Athletic Director.
