  We will be honoring the following people:

Of course we expect to play the tournament annually.
There will be a $10 entry fee (to cover the cost of the plaques)
 plus your green fees.
We are also considering adding a fee that would cover a lunch at the course following the tournament
(your input would be appreciated on this).
* Handicap can be obtained by playing with our group for at least 3 rounds or submitting scores from at least 3 rounds that we may input into our records to establish a handicap for you. If you have an established handicap from another league, we will accept that.

Balloons from Pam P.

Hi Sue -
 
While you were enjoying the fall colors in New England, we were enjoying New Mexico's famous Balloon Fiesta. 
 
 It was one of the most impressive things
we've ever seen in our journeys. 
 
 I highly recommend it to our fellow Peeps!
Pam

The Colors of New England!

We spent a long day yesterday (Friday, Oct 7) touring Camp Sagamore (the Vanderbilt summer camp) and oohing and aahing over the spectacular Autumn colors.
 






 Fort Ticonderoga on Thursday. 
We are full to bursting with history.

The Artist!

Last weekend Catherine competed in the Indiana Plein Air "Brush of Fall" event in Converse, Indiana.  Artists from all over the mid-west met at a small, rural community in north-central Indiana for a painting competition.  
 
 
About 75 artists competed.  Entries had to be painted that day in the open air.  Catherine entered one painting.  While she did not win an award, she did sell eight paintings to collectors attending the event (the most of any of the artists).












 
She was absolutely ecstatic.  
 
 
In the evening Catherine and Bob attended a "Garden Party and BBQ" at a large farm owned by the hosting artist.
