The Trail Hockey Club Society held its annual Trail Smoke Eater Golf Tournament and fundraiser on Saturday at Birchbank Golf Club with a full complement of 108 competitors teeing off.

Funds raised by the THCS have gone to a scholarship fund that recently awarded $61,000 in bursaries for 14 Greater Trail hockey players.

As for the tournament, the three-man, best ball scramble saw the team of Steve Simister, Ryan Edwards, and Jackson Duffus fire a low gross 61, while the threesome of Pat and Del Iannone, and Kyle Jones won the low-net.

Prizes and awards were given out courtesy of a number of local sponsors, in addition to an auction and silent auction to raise funds for the event.
