Shelly Stouffer received the Senior Women’s Player of the Year award from the Pacific Northwest Golf Association. Stouffer of Nanoose Bay, B.C., and an honorary member at Mount Brenton Golf Course, has now earned this honor three of the past four years. In August, she won her third Canadian Women’s Senior Championship and added victories at the PNGA Senior Women’s Amateur, Irish Senior Women’s Amateur, and B.C. Senior Women’s Amateur. She also reached the semi-finals of the U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur and qualified for the U.S. Senior Women’s Open and U.S. Women’s Amateur.
BCGA’s active season for handicap purposes runs from March 1 to Nov. 15. If you post a score after Nov.16, it does not get calculated into your handicap unless you are in an area of the world that has an active golf season.
Dave Hayer aced Hole 3, 128 yards with a pitching wedge. His playing partners were Warren Boschee, Larry Kydd and Paul Williams. It was Dave’s second hole-in-one. Did you know that 95% of golfers will never get a hole-in-one?
Course conditions overall are reasonably stable for this time of year. We will soon be restricting play to mats on some of the smaller tees on par 3s. Don’t be surprised to see the 16th green play as a temporary green throughout the winter; it just can’t handle the amount of play this time of year. Factors such as the size of the 16th green, its limited walk-on and walk-off areas, and the lack of sunlight combine to inhibit the turf from recovering from the amount of winter play we now get.
Also, please replace your divots. With the ground so soft this time of year, the divots can be quite large, and with very little growth now, the divot scars will take a long time to recover with just adding sand.
Projects/Other Work
The Irrigation system has been winterized.
Work commenced on Nov. 17 on the irrigation improvements on hole #8. The hole will be shortened and play to a temporary green for the first phase of the work in November. For the remainder of the work on #8, the hole will be entirely closed until the end of December. While the hole is closed, we will also be doing some work on the 8th green’s left-hand bunker and levelling the apron on the front of the green.
There have been recent issues with spiked golf shoes in the Mount Brenton Pub, both inside and on the deck, which are concerning to the Board and Pub staff.
The issues are. 1) In the Pub, there have been instances of golfers slipping, which could cause injury; 2) shoes tracking in dirt and grass clippings, leading to higher cleaning and maintenance costs; 3) heavier-than-normal wear and tear of the flooring.
The board asks members and guests to be extra careful when visiting the Pub and patio and hopes everyone will clean their shoes before entering the building.
A new shoe cleaning brush and pad will soon be installed at the lower entrance to the clubhouse. In the meantime, there are two shoe brushes – one at the cart cleaning station behind 18 green and one beside the stairs leading up to the Pub patio.
The worst shoes to wear have hard plastic soles and “cleats”.

Mount Brenton Golf Course opened in 1948 and celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2023. The par 71/73 course, Vancouver Island’s Hidden Gem, is in the scenic, historic town of Chemainus, Canada’s Mural Capital. With shaded fairways flanked by towering firs, the course also features willow, hemlock, maple, scotch, ponderosa pine, sequoia, cedar, dogwood, and giant cottonwood. The course is challenging for every level of golfer; there are creeks to hurdle and ponds to circumvent. Maintained by an excellent grounds crew, the fairways are lush, the greens are true and tricky, and the sand is deep. An extensive drainage system also makes Mount Brenton one of the most playable golf courses year-round on Vancouver Island. Book a tee time today and come and see for yourself.
