Closest to Pin honors were spread around by the Gals, but the Guys honors were "swept" by John Comeau at 6'4½" on #9, 9'11" on #5 and 37'3" on #2…? (ank goodness the team was able to par the hole using a driver for the second shot from John's CTP lie.) We had an on-site awards social for November commandeered by our Chief Catering Officer, Randy Meyer. It appears to have been well received by all who attended, aside from an insistent chant from the unruly of "let's eat." is would also have occurred when the kids got home from ball practice in the days of "years past." Calm however was restored aer the awards were presented as we "let the feeding begin!" Because of a scheduling conflict, the December Colony 2Ball Tournament event will be cancelled, thus closing out the tournament event with the November competition. We will pick up once again on ursday, Jan. 4. More fun on the links is in our future. If you have interest, give me a call or drop an email to dmurph44@vrizon.net and I will send you a 2024 tournament schedule (first ursday aernoon of the month), rules of the game, and include you in our active mailing list. Requirements for this event are to be able to grasp a club! Being a member of the Men's or Women's Golf Club is not required. Just pick up some sticks and join us for a friendly aernoon of fun.
