> Changes re Tax Deductible Donations   (posted Aug 13, 2010)

The Deer Lodge Curling Club  welcomes donations to the club to help enhance our facilities and programs.  The club cannot directly issue tax receipts to individuals.  However,  there is a process whereby donations of $100 or more made to the Canadian Curling Association (CCA) will get you a  tax receipt and then reach the club in the form of grants we request from their Curling Club Development Fund.
For individuals who have participated in the past,  please note that the CCA has asked for some minor changes to the content of the cover letter attached with the cheque/money order.

> 2010 Golf Day & Registration BBQ (posted June 11, 2010)

Fifteen groups teed off at 1 p.m. on Friday June 11th at the Assiniboine Golf Club for our annual Deer Lodge Golf  Day.  Once again it was a Texas scramble format.   Not all groups chose to finish as a downpour hit the already soggy course at about the halfway point.  
After golf back at the Lodge, our chef for the evening George Smith fired up the big BBQ ( courtesy of Custom Truck Sales).   He did a great job with the steaks preparing them to our individual tastes.  
Curling applications for the 2010-11 season were collected throughout the evening.
After dinner all the scores were tallied and emcee Dan Sul  announced the winners.
The low net team score for the day, an unbelievable 12 under par 60,  was turned in by the Brent Mackie group. On the team with  Brent were Gary Lacey, Garry Cornelson and Gerry Bell.   Cornelson also  won the prize for the  longest drive of the day on hole number 3.   To top it off they also inflicted damage to the Assiniboine Club House when one of the group sculled a lob wedge on the 9th hole sending the ball through one of the windows in the bar area.
The team with the highest net score (and the most honest) was the Colin McLachlan group.   Helping to achieve that recognition were Jack & Jim Gordon, Dan Gagne and Al Titheridge.
Closest to the pin honours went to Scott Hanson for his shot on the par three 4th hole.
Door prizes were handed out next followed by the draw
for the free membership.
All the curling applications received to date were shuffled by Brent  before getting Colin to make the random selection.  The lucky winner drawn 
was Wayne Buckle.
Thanks go to Dan Sul  & crew for organizing the event and to Jody & Shirley at the bar.
