When the players came into the clubhouse after their round of golf they finished the day with a warm chicken buffet dinner with dessert menu of kringels (by Ene Timmusk) and homemade brownies. There were no leftovers. After dinner we had the awards presentation as well as the participation prize distribution.
The Estonian Golf Club of Ontario (EGO) is honored to announce the selection of its first three inductees into the EGO Hall of Fame for services rendered to the Estonian community. They are:
Allan Liik (1956- 2013)
Peeter Kopvillem (1954- 2016)
Markus Hess (1953-2022)
Starting in 2023, all future EGO tournaments will have memorial holes designated for these community builders.
The tournament was a huge success due to the participation of the players but also our hole sponsors- friends of Peeter Kopvillem and Allan Liik, friends of Markus Hess, Eesti Üliõpilaste Selts, Tevag Inc., and Jack Lake Productions Inc.
EGO (Estonian Golf Club of Ontario) would also like to thank Graeme McCarrel and Rebecca Krauklins, and the entire Pheasant Run Golf Club team, you made us feel welcome.
See you all next year, at our 27th anniversary, at the Pheasant Run Golf Course on Sunday, sometime in September!
