President's Message

President’s April 2024 Message

With Spring having arrived a day early due to Leap Year 2024, we are already in Full Swing—by swing I DO mean golf!

April 12th we will run our Spring Golf Tournament at the great 18 hole Delta Golf Course, the same one we hold our annual Richard Gaudreau Fall golf classic.  Take you bag out, wipe the cobwebs off, and go down to the driving range.  Walter will post the 2024 Burnaby Driving Range dates and times very soon.  Yet, April 12th we have our spring tournament, with a BBQ afterward.  Non-golf club members can also drop by, check out the Spring Activities page.

This year, we are way ahead on book Banff for the 2025 ski trip.  It’s February 2, 2025 and I just went to Trivago to ensure Iain MacIver has the DEAL OF A LIFETIME for our club members.  Their BEST DEAL at the Banff Aspen, 401 Banff Avenue, for 7 nights in a standard room is MORE than our 10 night package.  Do not miss out.  Members of the PSC get to book April 2nd (if I had said the 1st, everyone would think I am joking!) and our Sister Club Members a day later, or April 3, 2024.  Our 7 day price is $24.00 (yes, I wrote twenty-four dollars) more than our unbelievable 2024 price, on Trivago listed at over $1,100,00 for the 7 nights!!!!


Our club night have move to the Tap House in Coquitlam, but it’s a very short walk from the Lougheed Sky Train Station, and we have had new members joining every month.  Come by and meet our new members!!!  Still have our great deals on beer and food and our raffles.

I am off to join the VASC on the Legends 5 night trip, but I will head up Easter Sunday, March 31 to get three more days on the mountain.  I still have 7 days left!!!

Ski you on the slopes or in the bars—socials are back and at Roxyburger 910 Granville 3 hours before home games of the Whitecaps.  We will see where we go for the BC Lions.

Still a week long to Whistler coming up, please see Skiing.  Let’s hope Üller, the Norse God of Winter and Snow, graces us in time to put fresh snow onto our locak runs.

Yes, you heard correctly,  I bought O1 Black Diamond Telemark binding in Vienna and finally installed them onto my Rossignol x-country skis.  We need new snow on our local hills!

See you at our event and club nights as well as on the slopes!

Sven
