The 70th Anniversary of Chapples Golf Course will be celebrated this July with a commemorative event.

The City is looking for citizens to share their memories of the course through photographs. Photos from the 1950s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s would be a welcome addition to upcoming 70 year celebration.

“We want to capture the history of Chapples in our community and what it has meant to local golfers,” said Pat Berezowski – Supervisor Golf Operations. “We’d love to see pictures of the Chapples club house, the greens and holes, and golfers out on the course.”

Photos can be submitted electronically at www.thunderbay.ca/GetInvolved or hard copies can be shared by contacting Pat Berezowski at 626-3122. Photos will be accepted until July 5.

The upcoming Chapples commemorative event will occur on July 16 at the club house. More details for the public celebration will be provided in July.
