JUNIOR TOURNAMENT SETS HIGHER GOALS!!

The junior tournament hosted by 3-B Pumping and B.T.I. had 38 entries -and several who were turned down- and was a great success, not only among the kids who participated, but also well received by parents and all golfers.

All the golfers received a t-shirt and cap donated by the sponsors, and, after the tournament, golfers, caddies, parents and spectators were treated to a great hamburger lunch provided and cooked by Bart Barnett and Brad Harguess.

From the onstart, the tournament was designed to be somewhat serious (scores would be turned in, ball would be played as it lies, players walked, etc), somewhat generous (a maxium of ten would be the score on any hole) and fun: kids were allowed caddies who could use a golf cart, however, the cart would stay on the cart path. It's nice to be your "parent's boss" at times, "mom, give me the 5 iron and more out of the way please" (LOL)

Some parents used a cart, some walked. Caddies ranged from cousins, brothers, sisters and parents, and of course, the gallery was great, and all deserve a "blue ribbon" for helping by following the rules of the tournament and of courtesy. Many of the parents were also scorekeepers, which we are all grateful for. THANK YOU!!!

The 38 young golfers were divided into six "flights", accodring to grade level and gender. Some flights played 7 holes, some 8 holes and some completed nine holes, and the winners are as
