Happy Canada Day and 4th of July!

Long days and warm weather are here, meaning golf's peak season is officially underway! Summer time is family time, and GolfBC has many Family-fun programs designed to make the most of your time together. From our popular Kids Play Free program (kids play free with paying adult), to Quik Tees (forward tees so the whole family of all abilities can play together), to lesson programs and camps for all ages, we're sure to have something for the whole family!

Still plenty of tee times left for this weekend. Start the first long-weekend of the summer right by hitting the links (or a patio) at one of 7 GolfBC locations.

Congratulations Shingo!

Congratulations to Shingo Akizuki (Mayfair Lakes Golf & Country Club) on claiming the Srixon Tour event at Whistler Golf Club. As the event was rained out after 13 holes, Akizuki shot 50 through 13 to take home the Champion Cheque. Well done, Shingo!

THANK YOU from GolfBC and Gallagher's Canyon

We would like to extend our gratitude to everyone who helped make the inaugural GolfBC Championship event happen, especially the 300+ volunteers and all the spectators who came out- rain or shine- to support! Congratulations to Dan McCarthy (who is still at the top of the money list with CAD$73,938 including 2 wins and 2 Top 10 finishes!). Charity was also a huge winner, with a total of $150,000 raised for the BC Cancer Foundation!
