The Egan Cup Has Been Everywhere!

Hi Gang,


Belated Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to one and all, especially other Cup winners. I hope everyone had a safe and wonderful holiday season with lots of good cheer..

What can I say but what a crazy year it’s been. Strange and remarkable things have been happening the world over. The Arab Spring, the debt crises in Europe, Pat putting two balls in the drink at the first hole at St Andrew’s without a club following the balls and I had the honour of winning the Egan Cup. For people who know me winning a golf tournament was the equivalent of the first man on the moon. Man I love the Callaway Scoring System. 




The Cup is resting at home in NB, as it should be, with a view from Anne Marie’s front window looking out over where the St John and Kennebecasis Rivers meet. It has been well traveled and many admiring eyes have paid proper compliments to it. No touching the cup of course without the proper hand wear.


 It was a fantastic time and a great experience getting to meet everyone this past summer.  I love the atmosphere and the interaction amongst the different age groups. Seeing the younger children and the smiles on their faces I know this will be an event they talk about and look forward to year after year. With people so busy these days it’s why everyone makes it an important date on their calendars.  This is a testament to how well everyone was raised and most of all the importance of family. It must have been your Mother Mae and that fine McAdam water.


I'm looking forward to seeing everyone, defending my title and getting to meet George and Gaye. Once the family elder statesmen get together and decide where and when we can all start planning once again for the Egan Cup.

Take care everyone and be safe.

PS Judy and Sheila, I know who the Oland killer is.
