On Thursday May 19, 2011 (20) members making up (5) teams competed in the May 2011 Scramble at the Gold Canyon Country Club. It should be mentioned that all in attendance agreed that the hospitality of the staff at Gold Canyon , headed up by manager and resident pro Kevin, was outstanding. The course was in excellent condition even with all the recent rainfall with only a few fairways being a little soggy. Lastly, the lunch provided was excellent in addition to the service of the restaurant staff.
Concerning the golf results (2) teams tied for 1st place with a gross score of (75) with the balance of the (3) teams coming in with a gross score of (76) only (1) stroke behind. Could not get much closer than this. The winning teams consisted of the team of
Kieran Savage, Harry Nieuland, and Keith and Noi Taylor and the team of Les Harvey, Nigel Jones, Dan Severson, and Steve Jepson.
Closest to the pin honors on the par 3 holes went to Joe Ritter, Jimmy Catterson , Steve Jepson, and Dave Robertson.
Congratulations to all the winners!
Lastly, hats off to Les Harvey for coordinating this event, and as stated, everyone who attended had a great day.
