Brad also talks to British Columbia Golf's newest president, Mr. Greg Moody who was elected at the recent Annual General Meeting.

We have a preview of BC's attempt at an unprecedented '5-peat' as the province's North Pacific Junior Ladies Team heads south to the Homestead Golf Course in Washington in search of their 5th consecutive triumph in the NPJLT Matches competiton.

Additionally, we are saddened to pass along the news of the loss of one of BC's longtime volunteers, Lorna Semple.
