For Immediate Release
Tobiano named Best New Course in Canada
Kamloops, B.C. – The Thomas McBroom-designed Tobiano has been named the Best New Course in Canada for 2008 by SCOREGolf Magazine.
"We are delighted that our team effort has been recognized by course raters from across the country," said Michael Grenier, President of Pagebrook, Inc., developer of Tobiano. "The superb work and dedication of Thomas McBroom, Director of Golf Miles Mortensen, Superintendent Terry Smith and our entire Tobiano staff, allow us to present this high quality product to golfers here in the Thompson Okanagan and from around the world."
Tobiano was recognized among outstanding new facilities across Canada and the award not only honours Tobiano but signals the emergence of the Kamloops area as one of the nation's finest golf destinations.
"It is very gratifying to receive this honour and it is doubly satisfying that Kamloops and British Columbia are centre stage for this prestigious award," Grenier added.
The dramatically beautiful par 72 Tobiano is visually stunning. The award-winning McBroom – 11 of his courses are named in SCOREGolf 's Top 100 List for which Tobiano will be eligible in 2010 – transformed a portion of the fabled Six Mile Ranch overlooking Kamloops Lake into both a golfer's and photographer's dream.
"I am honoured that Tobiano has been recognized with such a sought-after award," said McBroom. "What makes me very proud about Tobiano is that there is really nothing else like it anywhere in the world."
Ideally located in the semi-arid climate 20-minutes west of Kamloops, Tobiano is just a three-and-a-half hour drive from Vancouver and less than two hours from Kelowna in the heart of the Thompson Okanagan region, renowned for its wineries and year-round vacation destinations.
"To be named SCOREGolf's Best New Golf Course in Canada is a phenomenal achievement for Tobiano, developer Michael Grenier, and our entire operations team," said Tobiano Director of Golf Miles Mortensen. "We will celebrate this award with our entire golf community here in Kamloops and across the province of B.C."
