Department of Biochemistry Golf Day

Flemingdon Park Golf Course

Toronto, August 5th, 2014

Once again we enjoyed our Annual Golf Day at Flemingdon Park, a delightful 9-hole course hidden away within the Don Valley. Twenty biochemists ranging from first-timers to accomplished pros took to the links in a scramble format that evened the odds for all teams. Great weather, convivial company and friendly competition made for another exceptional Golf Day!
