Southpoint Sun - 23
Krueger on fire at Talbot Trail By Bob McLean Sixty-five enthusiastic Talbot Trail senior men’s league golfers participated on May 17 on a somewhat cool, breezy, but delightfully sunny day that challenged the players’ skills. We’ll continue tuning our games for future league play. Only eight of the 65 players were able to shoot 45 or less. Kreug dominated the field with his spectacular 36. Joe Drummond continued his masterful play by shooting a 40. Dutchy, although hobbled by his aching hips, still produced a terrific 41. Other participants who shot 45 or less: Rick Thompson 42; Fuzzy, Nasher, Chopper 44s; Fred Michano 45. Reporting the scoring results by age divisions will occur in June. However, here are some commendable results by players over 80 years: Joe Vrtel and Tom Hyatt 46s; Carl Robinson, Neil Adamson, Andy Orsini and Bob Freure nifty 50s; Dave la Bonte 51; Bill Edwards and Tom Sasso 52s; Gerry Becigneul 53; Walter Balsam 54; and Erle the Pearl Nash 60. Two other players who achieved nifty 50 were Eugene Kerrigan and Dave Chambers. The closest to the pin winner on #9 was Tom Sasso whose dazzling hit on #9 ended up four feet from the pin. David Tonks captured the long putt victory on #2 by draining a 17-foot putt. A rumour was passed around in the clubhouse that OV couldn’t complete his round because he was still mourning the demise of the Leafs from the playoffs. Next year, Dave! Past and new players are welcome to join the Talbot Trail senior men’s league.
Erie Shores senior men’s golf
There were 42 Erie Shores golfers in the senior men’s league in attendance on May 16. The draw winners were Ron Tremblay and Wayne Wiseman. Closest to the pin on #3 was Tom Miehl and on #16 Jerry Mallard. The longest putt on #14 was won by Wayne Wiseman. The first place team consisted of Garth Denerley, Jerry Malott and Alden Warner. Second place went to Norm Beattie and Don Mensch. In third were Dave Binder, Gord Anderson, Ross Clark and Gary McRae. Fourth were Brian Collins, Gord Anderson, Bill Gherasim and Ed Schachowskoy. Low rounds for the day were Wayne Wiseman and John Rutgers at 80, followed by Norm Beattie and Matt Dick at 81. Norm Beattie and Kevin Shaften birdied the first hole. Wayne Wiseman and Musuronchan had birds on #2. Musuronchan also birdied #9. Gary McRae and Alden Warner had birds on #3, Peter Harb #5, Matt Dick #10, John Rutgers #14, and Jerry Mallard and Scott Maxwell birdied #16.
YESTERDAY AND TODAY CAR SHOW

Over 300 entrants brought their classic cars out for the afternoon, which include a live musical performance by Leave Those Kids Alone, a bouncy castle, food and lots of raffles. The evening concluded with a huge fireworks display at dusk to the delight of all present. The car show featured 14 different trophies handed out but the real winner was the Foster Parents Society of Ontario, to which the proceeds were donated. One of the organizers, Norm Lalonde, said that hundred of spectators attended under the cloudy cool skies and he was thrilled with the participation from classic car enthusiasts. Above are a few of the classic vehicles that were shown at the show. SUN photos
