Good Luck Cathy!

January 2008 

As you may know Cathy has left the Niagara Region for a new challenge in Belleville.  Cathy has taken a teaching position at the Black Bear Ridge Golf Club. 

Cathy has always been an inspiration to me and regularly takes time to send me words of inspiration and support for my Gogirlgolf vision.

I wish Cathy every success in her new teaching position and home in Belleville.

One of Cathy’s proudest moments was being inducted into the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame on May 4, 1995. Cathy was coached by the late Gordon McInnis Sr. of Lookout Point Country Club, Fonthill, Ontario and attributes much of her success to the fundamentals and foundations laid by Mr. McInnis. Her favorite quote is:

“The day you stop experimenting is the day you start to improve."
