VICTORIA EDUCATION SERIES EVENT CANCELLED DUE TO WEATHER, VIRTUAL MAKE-UP SESSIONS TO BE ARRANGED
|
|
After heavy winds and stormy weather blew through Victoria overnight, we regrettably were forced to cancel the Victoria Education Series yesterday after a power outage. The event will be canceled in person, however we are working towards offering all three presentations as part of an expanded virtual program over the coming weeks. When the schedule has been finalized we will announce the changes and all members are encouraged to attend. Please note that no changes to the virtual education pass will be made following these adjustments.
The Association extends our appreciation to Victoria Golf Club Head Professional Lindsay Bernakevitch and his team for their hospitality, and to Foresight Sports Canada for supporting the PGA of BC Education Series. We appreciate your patience and consideration, and thank you for your understanding.
