Key messaging was provided in a British Columbia Golf Industry nine hole scorecard which included three pillars – Golf is good for British Columbians – good for our economy, good for our environment and good for health and wellness.  View our BC Legislature Golf Awareness Day – April 30 2014 Presentation.
