In addition to Brad's reports, we also have a fascinating interview from Women's Golf Project contributor, Karen Kloske, as she spoke with Nanoose Bay's Shelly Stouffer. Karen sheds a little more light on the Canadian and U.S. Senior Women's Amateur Champion from 2022 in her 'Getting To Know BC's Shelly Stouffer, A Champion On And Off The Golf Course' story on page 38. We also have a look at what is taking place with the First Tee - Canada program, helping to empower youth through golf on page 20. We're also pleased to pass along on page 18 that 'Women's Golf Day' will be a week-long celebration this year. All of us at British Columbia Golf want to wish everyone a happy & healthy holiday season and all the best for the New Year.
