33 Years of Competition in the summer has shown a few new faces on the championship blocks.
220+ golfers teed it up over 3 days of competition.
A lot of the Champions were decided by count back while most were won by just one stroke.
Sponsors made this whole event possible and many, many thanks go out to them for the continued support they have shown.
The Grande Prairie Golf & Country Club were once again the perfect hosts. Everything was in order and the hospitality was second to none.
This year a returning champion lead the tournament from start to finish.
