IRONHEAD GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB ...
Get ready for some of the
best golf ever …
From the championship tees Ironhead measures in at 6835 yards and features an abundance of
water and sand bunkers in play (there are 96 bunkers strategically placed throughout the course),
this makes it a course that requires intelligent course management to score well.
Ironhead has many challenging holes but the biggest challenge is the par five 3rd. From the back
tees this hole measures at 577 yards, and is a hole that requires powerful shot making and pin-point
precision thanks to the presence of an out of bounds left and a ravine down the right side.
T
he Ironhead Golf & Country Club is a fabulous championship length golf course located on the
shores of Lake Wabamun. The course can easily adapt to any skill level and at the same time
challenging the game's best players.
If you have yet to enjoy this fabulous course, the staff of Ironhead invite you to experience the beauty
and challenge of Ironhead!
Ironhead Golf & Country Club is located 40 minutes west of Edmonton on Yellowhead/Highway 16.

“EMOR” in a Nutshell …
The Torah section of Emor
TORAH TIDBITS ...
(“Speak”) begins with the
special laws pertaining to the
kohanim (“priests”), the
kohen gadol (“high priest”),
and the Temple service: A
kohen may not become
ritually impure through
contact with a dead body,
save on the occasion of the
death of a close relative. A
kohen may not marry a
divorcee, or a woman with a
promiscuous past; a kohen
gadol can marry only a
virgin. A kohen with a
physical deformity cannot
serve in the Holy Temple, nor
can a deformed animal be
brought as an offering.
"Stump the Rabbi"
A newborn calf, lamb or kid must be
left with its mother for seven days
before being eligible for an offering;
one may not slaughter an animal and
its offspring on the same day.
The second part of Emor lists the
annual Callings of Holiness—the
festivals of the Jewish calendar: the
weekly Shabbat; the bringing of the
Passover offering on 14 Nissan; the
seven-day Passover festival beginning
on 15 Nissan; the bringing of the
Omer offering from the first barley
harvest on the second day of
Passover, and the commencement,
on that day, of the 49-day Counting
of the Omer, culminating in the
festival of Shavuot on the fiftieth day;
a “remembrance of shofar blowing”
on 1 Tishrei; a solemn fast day on 10
Tishrei; the Sukkot festival—during
which we are to dwell in huts for
seven days and take the “Four
Once, the disciples came to their chassidic
Rabbi. They were playing stump-the-rabbi,
and were trying to ask him a question to
which there was no perfect answer. They
asked him, "Rabbi, there is a ladder, and
the ladder has 613 rungs on it. There is
someone near the top, and someone near
the bottom. Who, in the eyes of God is
higher?"
Kinds”—beginning on 15 Tishrei; and
the immediately following holiday of
the “eighth day” of Sukkot (Shemini
Atzeret).
Next the Torah discusses the lighting
of the menorah in the Temple, and
the showbread (lechem hapanim)
placed weekly on the table there.
Now, the Rabbi knew that the obvious
answer to this would be the person near
the top, who, being near the top observes
nearly all 613 commandments. But to say
that the person near the top is higher in the
eyes of God would be presumptuous, and
would deny the heights, however low,
acheived by the one near the bottom. This
too, might dissuade someone near the
bottom from climbing even higher. On the
other hand, the rabbi knew that to say the
one near the bottom was higher in the eyes
of God would be ludicrous, because of the
heights obtained by the one near the top.
So the rabbi kept silent.
Thinking they had their rabbi stumped, they
asked him, "Rabbi, what is the answer, if
there is one?" He responded, "There is an
Emor concludes with the incident of a answer, but you have not told me the
man executed for blasphemy, and the whole story." The disciples said to him,
penalties for murder (death) and for "Certainly we have. There is a ladder with
injuring one’s fellow or destroying his 613 rungs, someone is near the top,
property (monetary compensation). someone is near the bottom, and who in
the eyes of God is higher?" And the rabbi
said to them, "But you have not told me
which of the two on the ladder is moving
upwards?"

what was to become “A Legend”.

RADZYN … AN EPIC FOLKTALE
RADZYN is the epic folktale of a small
Hassidic shtetl that survives the Holocaust – and the three generations of
spiritual legacy that empower it.
Individual stories weave together to tell
the tale of the mysterious town of
Radzyn, hidden deep in the forests of
Poland. As Hassidim flee from the
of Europe’s darkest years, it quietly
becomes a beacon for true strength and
holiness.
