Hole-in-one could win new Mustang
Can lightning strike twice in
the same place? If it does, John
Scott thinks that Saturday, Aug.
6, would be a good time. That’s
when Rotary’s seventh annual
Cool at the Coast golf tourna-
ment will happen at Ocean
Dunes Golf Links.
Scott is a Rotarian and an
avid golfer. He was the last per-
son to hit a hole-in-one on the
eighth hole at Ocean Dunes.
That happened Sept. 15,
2015.
The day was sunny, clear,
and breezy, according to Scott.
He hit a 5-iron off the tee,
approximately 140 yards and
right into the hole.
“I had several reliable wit-
nesses too,” Scott said.
Hole No. 8 plays 150 yards
straight downhill from a high
tee with a panoramic view. It
goes down steeply to a two-
level green nestled in a charm-
ing dell below. The green is
well guarded on the left by a
dry hazard and tall trees and on
the right by a trio of bunkers.
A hole-in-one here takes a
combination of skill and luck.
B E
The hole in one prize is
sponsored by Three Rivers
Casino Resort, and the car is
provided by Johnston Motors.
Of course, 135 other golfers
will be aiming for the same
prize, and who knows what
might happen?
Cool at the Coast is nearly
sold out. Only a few individual
spots are still available, so any-
one planning to play should
register quickly.
To register call 541-997-
3232.
Premier sponsors of this
year’s tournament include:
Three Rivers Casino Resort,
Ocean Dunes Golf Links,
Coldwell Banker Coast Real
Estate, Oregon Pacific Bank,
PeaceHealth, Banner Bank and
ServPro of West Eugene and
Florence.

The 10K walk from D-River
to Chinook Winds and back is

appropriate for strollers or
wheelchairs. The soft sand
conditions along some parts of
the course make this a strenu-
ous walk.
As always, leashed pets are
welcome on walks, but bring
water and clean up materials
for pets. A sturdy 6-foot leash,
not the retractable type, is
required.
On Wednesday, Aug. 3, the
