150 Club Spring Opener

Saturday, March 17, 2012

Here it is, the first tournament of the year, we have 52 signed up and then the weather gets ugly.  When we came in Saturday morning, we weren't sure how many would want to play if we could play.  In the end, 40 players went out to play.  I must say I was impressed.  They played through cold, rain and even snow and go figure when everyone finished it got sunny out.  Thanks to everyone who played and toughed it out and congratulations to the winners!
