The golf tournament held at Meadow Gardens Golf Club on Sunday, August 20th, was a lively event with a total of 29 participants.
Air quality was a concern due to the wildfires in the east, but the weather on the day was sunny. There was not much wind, and the conditions were good. From the start of the first group at 13:00 until the finish of the eighth group at 18:00, a fierce battle unfolded on the greens.
After a refreshing workout, we enjoyed a delicious buffet-style dinner in the golf course's banquet room. The results were announced at dinner, which added to the excitement.

Trophies were awarded to the male and female winners and the best gross scorers in both genders, while prizes were given to the winners of the nearest-to-the-pin and longest drive categories. In addition, all participants received a participation prize, which they could choose freely in order of their ranking.
We received many donations this time. There were many items other than golf-related goods, such as 1.8-liter bottles of sake, wine, vegetable gift sets, electric toothbrushes, collagen supplements, and meal vouchers, and it seemed that everyone enjoyed choosing their participation prize.
This time, the number of co-sponsoring and cooperating business organizations increased to seven. Several people from each organization participated, as well as many individuals who do not belong to any organization. Many people met for the first time at this event, and I think it was also an opportunity for them to expand their circle of golf friends.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the co-sponsors, the Roundtable Discussion Group and the Japan-Canada Chamber of Commerce, as well as the supporters, Kenyu-kai, BOSS-kai, Sakura-kai, and the Association of Japanese Women Entrepreneurs, for their support and cooperation. We also thank everyone who donated prizes.
Based on what went well this year and what can be improved, we will plan next year's tournament. Golfers, please make sure to prepare yourselves mentally and physically for next year. We look forward to another exciting competition next year.
Yuki Shiraishi, Director and Secretary, Kiyukai
