It was great to have some old faces return to bring our field to 13. Angela Giouzellis (34) had an excellent day with 40 points. Joyce, Chrissy, and Michelle D were in the ball pool. Michelle Baker birdied the 7th which was a very good effort. Joyce had nearest the pin on the 9th.

Friday is our Gold Watch tournament, and we look forward to welcoming players from several clubs. The course is looking terrific thanks to all our workers.
