out. Contact Donna at 410-627-7697. If we have enough interest, we can pick a date
and time. Thanks.

A golfer teed
up his ball on the first tee, took a mighty swing and hit his ball into a clump
of trees. He found his ball and saw an
opening between two trees he thought he could hit through. Taking out his 3-wood, he took a mighty swing.
The ball hit a tree, bounced back, hit him in the forehead and killed him. As he approached the gates of Heaven, St.
Peter asked, "Are you a good golfer?"
The man replied, "Got here in two, didn't
I?"
