With the alteration of the Club Championship format, the Junior Club Championship carried a little extra weight starting this year.

The ever popular August Stag was a fantastic day all around. Between the weather, the company, the golf and the food, we couldn’t have asked for much more.

We’re always excited when the Women’s Board sponsored social comes up on the calendar. They do a great job supporting worthy causes year after year and this year was no different with PARS for PUNT. While the golf is secondary to the charitable fundraising, we did want to recognize the team that came out at the top of the leaderboard. Dave Nelson, James Sabo, Ron Baker & Donna Baker had the best dice ball scramble score by one with a 27.
