\n\tJuly 17, 2020<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n

\n\tGrande Meadows Golf Course continues to see an increase in golfers playing as the summer rolls on. It's great to see lots of activity at the course during these trying times.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

\n\tGrande Meadows Facebook<\/b><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

\n\tGrande Meadows social media sites are undergoing some changes these days. Jacob Farrell, a Grade 11 MCHS student is using his social media talents towards improving and connecting the Grande Meadows Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts as well as helping with the Tourism Newfoundland & Legendary Coasts sites.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

\n\tThis week's shoutout goes to Bill Hanrahan who recorded his first ever hole-in-one on July 4 while playing along with brothers Frank and Dick. Bill used his 7 iron to ace the 150 yard Par 3 Hole #3 into a light breeze. Congratulations Bill!<\/font><\/p>\n

\n\tAll the best and stay safe.<\/font><\/p>\n
