Congratulation to all. And a big
thank you to Bev Chance for assisting with the tournament.
A few highlights were the perfect
weather and excellent shape of the courses.
The Navy threw in an air show and Sam Jepson and his staff at Pacific
Grove went out of their way to make this a very enjoyable experience.
Another comment that was shared was
The Castle Oaks Swingers had the largest turnout for the event. And one of the players had her breakfast
burrito in her purse and while making a pit stop she came back to a huge crow
stealing her burrito right out of her purse.
He was successful getting it out and was in the process of starting to
eat it when he was shooed away. He
brought a friend back and followed the ladies to the next hole trying to get at
the breakfast burrito.
One more story I received was while
getting ready to tee off at Pacific Grove, Maureen looks over by the cart
hearing bird noises. One might have been
a crow who took off with her bag of nuts…the whole bag. And congrats Maureen on that birdie at
Monterey Pines. Everyone seems to enjoy the experience and look forward to going back next year. Here are a few photos that were shared.
