CN Golf Day

Written by kelly on September 23rd, 2008

There is one day a year where all the employees at CN head out to Willows Run to play golf (or mini-golf) for the afternoon. It is a best ball tournament with cash prizes and everything. I took a golf course in college that consisted of a dozen or so of us standing around in the gym hitting golf balls into a large tarp. I had no idea if I was a good golfer or not, but after two years of mini-golf, I decided to go for it on the full golf course. First, I was a little nervous because my team consisted of two other gals and Bob Nuber, as in, the company is half named after you Bob Nuber. Oh geeze. It turned out to be great fun!

Here is our scorecard. I got to be the score keeper:

Here is our team:

We ended the game 8 over par. Sort of bad in a best ball tournament, but around the 7th hole I started to figure out how to golf! It was really fun! I might even golf on a day when the company isn’t paying next summer. It IS a nice walk, if nothing else, and it’s fun to be outside and spending time getting to know some coworkers a little better.

    Wow, golfing with the big-wigs! I know the exact feeling of ‘around the 7th hole figuring out how to golf’. It’s a fun game when you acutally figure out how to hit the ball! Even better when you’re with people that don’t mind it takes 7 holes to do! :)

    Thanks for the comments on my page Kelly! Your so sweet! We had a blast at the reunion this weekend! My class was pretty small, there were 90 graduates! I think we have about 40 or so show up for the reunion! Hard to believe it’s been 10 years! Amazing how time flies!

  3. I love how you wore running shoes. If you do take up golfing, you’ll have to get some golf shoes!
