Grand Pines Golf Club is just one hour north of Winnipeg on Highway 59. This championship course borders the Belair Provincial Forest in the heart of the lake country, minutes away from both Grand and Victoria Beaches.
On Saturday our good friend and colleague, Tom Betz passed away. Tom was gregarious and big hearted man, and throughout his time at Grand Pines his leadership and kindness created a large family of friends not only with everyone who worked with him at the course, but to thousands of people who played at Grand Pines. A lot of the "Grand" in Grand Pines was Tom's warmth and personality that made it more than just a place, but a community and his legacy will be that community he helped to create. It has been our great honor to have had him as our friend. Rest in peace Tom.
