Drive for Show, Putt for Dough

Greg Zusan trying to find the pin.
This week was our very own Harold Martin Open.  110 golfers descended on Twin Bridges Golf course.  The beer carts were full of liquid refreshments.  The beer cart drivers (The Hotties and the Cougars) were assigned to parts of the course.  There was a lot of smack talk among the drivers both of the beer carts and those with clubs in the hand.  As golfers arrived, everyone was signing in, purchasing last minute muliagain's, raffle tickets, and the 50/50.  After lunch, golfers hit the putting green and awaited the shotgun start.

Greg VanLaere and Pat Cockrum spoke briefly to the golfers about Rotary and Sycamore Services.  Buford followed up with some rules of the road for our attendees.  The weather held off and it was a great day on the links.  Golfers were laughing and carring on, while others were chasing down the beer cart.  Par or better was the suggestion.  Some say that golf is a wonderful walk spoiled by a little white ball.

I was happy to put together a team of the Hendricks County Rotary Club Presidents.  Greg Zusan, Max Hank, Scott Norris and myself.  It was great Rotary fellowship and quite the swan song as we wrap up our year of leading our clubs.  As the day wound down, golfers made their way back to the club house for the 50/50 and the raffle.  Heath Allen and Flory Phillips lead a active golf outing committee to a successful outing.  Thanks to all who worked to make this a success.

Tonight at the Danville Town Hall Meeting, the Town of Danville made the Mayberry Cafe a landmark, announced that May 20th will be forever a local holiday with parades and laughing children, and gave Brad and Christine the Keys to the Town... well maybe that is not how it all went down, but Brad and Christine were recognized for their assistance in attracting tourists to the Danville community.  Way to go Brad and Christina.
