Shannon Niemi of Divestco Inc. is also a new mom and is enjoying her time at home with little Emma. Shannon hopes to return to work on February 1, 2004.

Doodlebug 2003 a Great Success!

The 51st annual Doodlebug Golf Tournament in Jasper, Alberta was another huge success. The weather was once again favorable and everyone in attendance had a fantastic weekend. A great big thank you goes out to the Doodlebug committee who spent countless hours organizing this event. One of the weekend highlights included a hole-in-one by Martin Armitage of Burlington Resources. Way to go Martin! Another highlight was the Greek Theme dinner held on Saturday night. The costumes were very creative and glamorous. I especially enjoyed seeing Oliver Kuhn dressed as Zeus...his long wig and beard must have outweighed him.

Congratulations to this year’s Doodlebug champion Mitch Peters of GeoStrata who took home the sought after trophy.
