On Thursday, August 29th, over 120 golfers—CPAs and their guests—gathered under perfect golf conditions at the beautiful Mayfair Lakes Golf & Country Club for an unforgettable day of sport, networking, and fun. With sunny skies and a gentle breeze, it was a picture-perfect day for our 63rd Annual Golf Tournament!
Participants faced 18 challenging holes, starting with a thrilling shotgun start. Golfers fueled up with a delicious sandwich lunch to power through their drives, while those who joined later for the evening festivities enjoyed a delicious banquet dinner. With two exciting formats to choose from - 'Play Your Own Ball' for the more seasoned golfers and 'Scramble Team Play' for the novices—there was a style of play for everyone.
The day culminated in a grand trophy presentation that celebrated excellence on the greens. Our winners included:
- Men’s Low Gross – Gary Wozny, CPA, CA
- Ladies’ Low Gross – Connie Hang, CPA, CGA
- Team Low Gross – Andre Lemieux, CPA, CA, Peter Lewis, CPA, CA, Ben Moxon, CPA, CA and Gary Wozny, CPA, CA
- Team Low Scramble – Kern Chiu, CPA, CMA, Brian Darrah, Eric Halpenny and Marcus Schalle
But the excitement didn't end there! Additional recognition went to those who triumphed in the longest drives and closest-to-the-pin challenges:

- Ladies’ Longest Drive – Stella Hew
- Men’s Closest to the Pin – Remco Bosdel
