With last week’s various announcements regarding the new restrictions brought into effect by the province of Alberta, Chief Medical Officer and Alberta Health Services, we decided to consolidate the various COVID-19 related pages on our website to provide ease of access for all our Members.
We hope the updated Resource Centre Page (found under the "My Account" tab) will help with any questions you may have during these trying times and all information on these pages has come directly from Alberta Health Services or government of Alberta or Canada pages to ensure accuracy, consistent messaging and clarity.
With all the hard-work being done on our Industry’s behalf by the tireless NAGA Alberta & all advocates, we have thankfully managed to remain open whereas so many others have not. While not easy to yet again be forced to endure making changes to operations and all the challenging facets that entails; we implore everyone to hang on and follow the new restrictions and guidelines that have been imposed. A recent article in the Calgary Herald by Wes Gilbertson helps shed some light on the current direction of lobbying and ongoing discussions with governmental persons.
We are saddened to announce the recent passing of PGA of Alberta member Corey Beaver. Corey joined the PGA of Canada in 2015 and received his Class A status at the beginning of 2020. He was most recently the Assistant Golf Professional at Sundre GC and previously worked at Jasper Park Lodge GC and Station Creek GC in Ontario. Corey passed away at the age of 27.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, a time of celebration to honour Corey’s life will be held at a later date. Arrangements have been entrusted to the Colchester Community Funeral Home, 512 Willow St, Truro, N.S.
Our deepest condolences goes out to his family and friends during this difficult time. Click the link below for Corey’s obituary.
