A fun time for over 30 peo
ple was the order of the evening
Saturday at WCCC.
Lowell Cribble organized a
two-ball foursome with a "shot
gun" start. We were told to keep
track of score and number of
putts used on each hole. Three
partners. Helen Schaffitz and
Lowell Gribble; Beverly Guilder
son and Ed Hiemstra, and Ha-
zel Mahoney and Ed Schaffitz
tied for low gross, all with a 38.
A contest of the gals was held
on the putting green to decide
the winners. Beverly had the
least putts, making her and Ed
winners for the evening. Marie
Mcyuarrie and Hoot Leslie of
Hardman received the consola
tion balls.
Some who couldn't make it for
golfing, came later for the
scrumptious meal and friendly
btmosnhere. We are glad to wel
come back from a vacationing
summer, Marylee and Ed Hiem
stra. Ed is our new vice-president,
having been elected to the
office in his absence. He didn't
seem to mind, as he just smiled
and accepted the position. He
is filling the place of Dick Car
penter, now of Brownsville.
Many youngsters of the golfers
attended the barbecue, making
this a family affair in the new
American way of life. We are
happy to see the "kids" there
playing and enjoying the dinner
with their families. Doug Gun
derson, in a cast and sitting in
his wheelchair, has been a faith
ful onlooker at most of our bar
becues, since his operation in
Portland in June. It is nice to
have you there, Doug, watching
the activities, even though you
would rather be golfing. Won't
be long until you are back
swinging that club so well.
Last Tuesday was a "great
day in the morning" for golf.
Least putts on No. 4 green was
chosen for the awarding of the
golf ball. Four gals had to chip
off for the coveted prize. This
was done very legally, one per
son chipping at a time and the
others with their backs turned
so they couldn't see how close
to the pin the "chipper" placed
his ball. No. 4 green is a dilly
for making a ball "sit", so it
was quite a challenge. Beverly
Gunderson came closest and
earned the title of the winner
for the day.
The golf course was well oc
cupied Sunday, with the men
playing in the morning and a
two-ball foursome in the after
noon.
Ladies' Day will start at 9:00
beginning Tuesday. August 22,
Maybe more gals will like this
time set one-half hour later.
Don t forget.
Let's all support the Morrow
County Fair and Rodeo this
week. Golfing can come in when
you are tired of sitting and have
a couple or hours to kill. You
can then stretch your legs and
get in your walking and swinging.
Ride 'Em Cowboys!
