10 golfers took a swing at claiming top prize in the “Longest Drive/Closest to the Pin” golf competition held at the Cold Lake Golf and Winter Club last Thursday.

Crispy afternoon fall weather didn’t dampen spirits or, in some cases, shots as competitors were broken up into “Under-40” and “Over-40” age categories.
