EXETER, Ontario (March 29, 2007) - You have to want to get to the Ironwood Golf
Club. From London, Ontario, it\'s a good 40-minute drive through vast, neat farmlands
and small towns - and away from numerous more conveniently located golf courses.

Once you get there, though, you\'ll be happy you came. Ironwood is a top-notch
family-run operation, easy on the eyes and easy on the scorecard. Opened in the
mid-\'60s, the course has been expanded, tweaked and fiddled with for four decades,
and it\'s not finished yet. This work-in-progress is an interesting little (6,179
yards from the tips) course that, along with fun golf, offers the astonishing sight
of white squirrels.

Exeter is so enamored of the little beasts that it holds a white-squirrel festival
every year. This isn\'t the only place in North America to trumpet the presence of
pale rodents; Oleny, Ill. has them, as do parts of North Carolina. Kenton, Tenn., is
perhaps the most aggressive in marketing its white squirrels; the strange-looking
creatures have right-of-way on city streets and residents are fined if they try to
leave town with one.

Fortunately the squirrels aren\'t Exeter\'s only attraction. More and more people are
coming to play Ironwood, which was considered out of the way in golf-heavy London
until the daily London Free Press ranked it second among 20 area public courses in
2002.
