2023 Club Closing Event

Club Closing 6-6-6 2023
The 2023, 6-6-6 Club Closing this year was held on September 30th.  It was a beautiful, brisk morning which turned out to be a really nice day, once the fog lifted.  We had a Ladies Division, Men’s Divisions and a Mixed Division which made up our 44-team field.  Fun was had by all and the golf scores were great, considering this unique format.  After golf there was a meal and refreshments prepared by the Oaken Barrell.  Thanks Dean and staff, the meal and drinks where fabulous!  A cake for dessert to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Paragon was enjoyed by all.
Thanks to the maintenance crew for their continued hard work in preparing the course, it was in great condition!  Thank you to all the sponsors: Freeman Motors, H.E. Armstrong, Aurora Inn, Barry Morse, Susan Hennessey, Royal LePage, Bayshore Contracting, Green Diamond and Broker Link for their gracious donations.  Thanks to Chrystal for her help scoring and making sure everyone was warmed up with a special beverage!!  And last, but certainly not least, thanks to all the participants that came out to play in the closing and helped celebrate Paragon’s 60th anniversary!!

2023 Labor Day 2 Man Scramble

The Paragon Labor Day 2 Man Scramble was held last weekend (Sept 2nd & 3rd), and a great time was had by all involved!!

The weather was great all weekend, and the Paragon grounds crew did a fantastic job getting the golf course in superb condition for the tournament.

The Pro shop staff did an excellent job greeting the players, and getting them out on the course.

We would like to send out a huge thank you to all of the volunteers that come out to help with scoring, set up, prizing etc.  We would not be able to host an event like this without the help of such a devoted group of Paragon volunteers.  We are truly thankful for each and everyone of them!!

We would also like to thank our wonderful sponsors for their generous support.  Thanks to West Nova Fuels, Bruce Auto Group, Green Diamond, Nova International, Chris MacCrae (TD Bank), Darrell Cook (CIBC Bank).

And last but certainly not least a huge thank you to all of the players who came from all over the province, country and further to play our tournament and to make this another successful event!!

Sam Hayden 2023

26 teams participated in the annual Sam Hayden Tournament. It is competitive and social tournament that recalls Sam Hayden who was one of the founding members at Paragon. The ladies teed off the orange tees and the gents teed off the red tees. It is a net tournament in which the team handicap is determined by 60% of the lower handicap and 40% of the higher handicap.

The day started out damp but by the time the players teed off, it was sunny, breezy and 23. The course was in great shape considering all the rain that we have had. Billy Eaton made sure that all the pins were well placed. Thank you to Barb and the Pro Shop staff for collecting the entries. Thank you to Dean (Oaken Barrel) for extending his hours. Thank you to Lorraine and John Drummond for scoring. Picture attached.

Additionally, friends of Roger and Audrey Neate announced, that in their memory, over $300 had been collected to purchase a bench to be installed on the course this fall.

The Winners:

63 Gaudets $60

65 Tidman and Fay $50

67 Rings $40

68 Spicer and Glavin $30

the following all tied at 70 (tie breaking procedure)

70 Grimms $20

70 Graves and Lavigne $20

70 Haywood and Dale $20

70 MacMillan and Coleman $10

Thanks,
Rosemary and Mike Willett
