Our first event of 2011 at River Wilds went well - great food and no hitches. No funny stories to tell, no one got pulled over on the highway and no flat tire stories.

We did have doughnuts, but I charged less money for prize, so the prizes were weaker than usual, (Some teams won pats-on-the-backs for their achievements). But it’s not about money, it’s about getting out with your friends and bragging rights.  

The flag winners were: Closest 2nd shot (Men)- Zach McIntyre;  Longest Putt (Ladies)- Pat Galvin; Closest 3rd Shot- Ryan Schmitz; Closest Tee Shot- Sandy Martin; Closest 2nd shot (Ladies) Barb Coleman; Longest Drive (Men) WHITE TEES- Zach McIntyre; Closest Tee Shot (Ladies)- Donna Lessig; Longest Putt- Rita White; Closest 2nd shot (Men)- Lorin Galvin; Closest 2nd shot- Tracy Shutt; Longest Putt (Ladies)- Deb Emery; Closest 3rd Shot- Deaun Trayer; Longest Drive (Men) BLUE TEES- Jeff Kurtz;  Longest Drive (Ladies) RED TEES- Pat Galvin; Closest 2nd Shot- Lorin Galvin; Closest Tee Shot (Men)- Doug Kuhlers; Longest Putt- Mike Reece.
