Northlands Golf Party




NORTHLANDS golf course is one of the prettiest courses around. Four years ago, the publicly owned golf course, which is also operated by the District of North Vancouver, debuted to rave reviews. Not for the faint of heart, this course is a tiger and has been rumoured to take a ball or two for keeps. But with such beautiful surroundings, it's hard to picture anyone losing their temper for very long. On May 17, the course held an anniversary party of sorts, inviting all kinds of friends and patrons to help celebrate the start of golf season. There was an outdoor grill, live music and lots of refreshments and a great time was had by all.
