We had a nice turnout with 3 new players joining us, Merlyn and Verlyn King, our fi rst set of twins to participate and what fun we had getting acquainted. We encour- age golfers to come join us to meet new friends and enjoy old ones. Winners for the day were Robert Dickson and Chester Henry who fi red a team score of 37 which is 19 under par. This makes 2 times in a row that Robert has been on the winning team! Mac McLean and Pete Lilly teamed up fi red another great score of 38 for 2nd place. Third place winner was the team of Russ Leininger and Bud Key who fi red 39. Marlow Pounds made his fi rst visit a memorable one by winning 4th place with his partner, Jerry Taylor, as they shot a round of 40. LeeRaye and Tom Chopski followed closely with their 41 and Bill Toner and Dino Linden were close with 42. The award for lady's long drive went to LeeRaye Christ- ner, men's long drives went to Mar- low Pounds and Robert Dickson. Winner of closest to the pin on hole #8 was won by Linda Taylor with hole-in-one and closest to the pin on #9 was Jerry Taylor.
