23rd MtS Halifax Golf Tournament (2022)
After a two-year hiatus dg the COVID-19 pandemic, 24 teams teed off at the Avon Valley Golf & Country club. It was a day when the sun occasionally kept on peeking, the rain held its pour, and the bugs did not appear to distract the participants from playing, finishing, and enjoying their game. Many yarns and smiles were shared along with friendly hugs, libations, and a hearty meal at the end of the day.
Huge THANK YOU to the sponsors and patrons along with the organizers and participants! The 2022 Golf Tournament was a significant success especially in raising the necessary funds for the continued delivery of services to the hardworking seafarers who come to the Halifax ports.
