And our event would not be as successful as it was without partners like the Grand Falls Golf Club, the Maintenance staff at CNRHC and 14 volunteers who included Board members Jennifer Whelan and Dianne Minhas. Our volunteers included: Stephanie Boone, Harold Butt, Brenda Cooper, Marie Hawkins, Hayley Head (summer student with the Central Northeast Health Foundation) Phil and Lorraine Haynes, Angela Decker, Donnie Murray, Olivia Organ, Courtney Stoyles (Executive Director of the Central Northeast Health Foundation) and Mondella Winsor. We would also like to thank Fred Pretty; local paramedic, photographer, and TC Advanced Drone Pilot, who donated a beautiful photograph of a sunrise over Gorge Park in Grand Falls-Windsor as the takeaway gift for our golfers and volunteers.
 

Last but not least, I have to give a shout out to our staff, Community Development Officer Jenna Budgell and summer student Ethan Lane, who were instrumental in preparing, organizing and making everything for golf day run smoothly. It really does take a village to make this event a success. Our proceeds will be used to replace all Cardiac Crash Carts at the Central Newfoundland Regional Health Centre as well as those at all the rural health centres in the south and central region.​

Thank you everyone
