July 26, 27: Graeagle Men’s Golf Association Member/Guest Invitational
The Graeagle Men’s Goff Association held its 52nd annual Member/Guest Invitational July 26 and 27. Teams of four competed in a format called Two Best Ball of the Foursome. Organizers report that 120 players enjoyed mild temperatures and excellent playing conditions. Dinner was served at the picnic grounds; participants said it was outstanding, and offered “cheers” to the food and beverage teams.
Players received engraved coasters and a flask. Organizers offer special thanks to Dan Friedman for the “tremendously successful” event; to Tad McCormick’s team and the entire golf course staff, who ensured a “flawless” tournament; and to Catherine Macdonald and the women’s club members for their supporting efforts managing the closest to hole, long drive, most accurate and margarita events.
