Message from Metro Vancouver Air Quality Officer:
If you own, operate, or hire diesel equipment; Metro Vancouver’s Non-Road Diesel Engine Emission Bylaw 1161 may impact your business. The Bylaw was adopted in 2011 and began taking effect in 2012.
This humerous video from the Hoilies Executive Course in Port Alberni shows the fun side of the game and what it can and should be about - having fun! Port Alberni, located in the center of Vancouver Island, prides itself as the "Salmon Fishing Capital of Canada" but this video shows why Port Alberni has also turned out two of the best women golfers in Canada (full disclosure, I'm a resident of Port Alberni). The Hollies Executive Course and nearby Alberni Golf Club provide great opportunities to learn the game in an accessible and affordable way.
