Club Championship - Volunteers Needed

From Saturday August 1st to Monday August 3rd the club championships will be played, one of the biggest events of the year. In an effort to make the three days as smooth as possible we have had members volunteer in the past to assist will duties like time keepers, spotters, etc. With the championship weekend just over a week away we are still looking for members to help out. We need people for all three days so if you're interested please sign-up on the website and indicate your availability.

Tim Packer

On Friday July 24th Whitevale member Tim Packer will be setting up his easel at the clubhouse in the early morning hours to help raise funds for our Cancer Society Drive. Tim will start and finish a 24” by 36” painting in the one day.  The painting will be auctioned off at the club later this season with all of the proceeds going to the Canadian Cancer Society. Tim will be creating one of his trademark “Sun through the trees” paintings depicting the view looking up from the path on the way to the 12th green. The regular retail price for a painting of Tim’s of this size is $3,295.00.

Tim is an internationally recognized painter whose work can be found in private and corporate collections around the world. He is the former president of the Canadian Society of Painters in Watercolour and a former senior signature member of the Canadian Institute of Portrait Artists.

Two giclee reproductions of Tim’s work are currently in the club house… one in the east Garden Entrance hall and one in the Lounge.

Tim participates in a similar fundraising initiative with the Toronto Police Service and the United Way each year by completing a painting in one day in the lobby of Toronto Police Headquarters. You can see a fast motion video of the 2013 painting being completed on youtube at the following link.

Drop by, say hello and watch the painting take shape throughout the day.

Senior Ryder Cup - Qualifying for 2016

Men’s Senior Ryder Cup

The Senior Men’s Ryder Cup was created to provide a forum for senior men in Southern Ontario who enjoy competitive match play. There are 60 clubs stretching from Oshawa and Wyndance in the east, to Listowell in the north, London in the east and down into Niagara, with four New York State clubs also involved in 2015. Whitevale is participating for the first time in 2015, in a division with Scarboro, Summit and Emerald Hills GCs. We hosted the initial 2015 event and took the most points. This is a gross match play event. Each team has two Super Seniors (65+) and six Seniors (55+). Thornhill GC will host the Division Winners in late August to name an overall champion.

The 2015 Senior Club Championship on July 18 and 19, 2015 is the Qualifying tournament for the 2016 Senior Ryder Cup team.

All Senior and Super Seniors members wishing to Qualify must play Blue tees.
