This will be a 9:00am shotgun tournament.  We're looking for major sponsors, gift cards, tee sponsors and volunteers the day of the tournament.

 

The mailings for this years tournament went out February 3rd to sponsors, tee sponsors, businesses and some golfers.

 

A big thank you to Anita Satterfield for redoing the cover letter and getting it printed at Beach Copy with our tee sponsor forms , golfers registration forms and envelopes. In addition she stuffed 142 letters & forms for the mailing.

Do you know why the Cleveland Browns were the last NFL team to get a website?

Because they couldn’t put three W's in a row.

Baltimore Ravens, let’s go

And put that ball across the line

So, fly with talons spread wide

Go in and strike with Ravens pride

Fight! Fight! Fight!

Ravens dark wings take flight

Dive in and show them your might

For Baltimore and Maryland

You will fly on to victory

Bubba

Walking the boardwalk yesterday morning, saw that the poster of Jimmy Buffett was still being displayed at the Phillips Beach Plaza Hotel, currently being demolished, although it's no longer going to be a Margaritaville Resort. 


Today, walking the boards once again, saw that the poster was no longer there, replaced by a political poster. Saw the poster laying on the ground, inside the fence.  The demolition guy from ICI was nice enough to give it to us. Bubba will now reside forever at the Zippy Creek Dockside Resort!

Funny Poop

Pappy sees Elmer walking with a lantern and asks, "Where ya going boy?"

The son smiled and replied, "I'm a-going courtin’ Peggy-Sue."

The Father said, "When I went a-courtin', I didn't need me no dang lantern."

"Sure Pa, I know." the boy said. "And look what you got!"
