Saturday
October 15, 2911 was the
Swing & Sweep, a long established annual event at the
Brockville Country Club. And the weather was miserable! But being inside, the curling ice was in great shape and
56 players turned out for the morning curling. Each team played
two (2) four-end games, then settled into a great spaghetti lunch in the curling lounge. Outside there was torrential rain and it was very windy. The radar was constantly being checked and indicated there might be a window opening up early afternoon. So following lunch everyone moved to the lower golf lounge (to allow the upstairs to be set up and decorated for the "Gala" event being held that evening .. amazing what goes on simultaneously at the BCC).
With everyone downstairs, it was decision time. So a vote was taken .. to play golf, or not to play. With a majority rule set, the vote results said
.."Let's Play". And no sooner than the decision was made, the sun came out. Talk about organizing! So virtually everyone suited up and headed for
nine (9) holes of golf. It was still very, very wet, cool and blustery but play golf they did. Following golf, it was back for dry clothes and to the golf lounge and bar where Denise and staff had the lounge elegantly set up for the wrap-up meal.
Congratulations to Scott Moor
e for organizing a great day, hanging in when conditions looked bleak and for bringing on the sun.
How did he do that? Curling is now in full swing with league play underway and golf is winding down.
Great Swing & Sweep gang and hopefully next year the weather will be more cooperative.
