Our lunch on Saturday was prepared by Russell Howard and it was wonderful. Our staff in the kitchen prepared the lunch on Sunday. It was Crawfish Etouffee. It seemed to be a big hit also.
A special thanks to all of our wonderful staff. The maintenance crew had the course in great condition and the clubhouse staff kept everything working smoothly all weekend. Thanks to all of our sponsors that make these events possible. Our total payback was $13,900.00. We look forward to next year’s club championship and hopefully it will be bigger and better.
