Golf Tournament
From Chuck Allen:Kim Timberlake and Karen Davis asked me too get a golf outing for state convention, I have been checking and the courses around Charlottesville are very expensive. Especially weekends. The one in the City of Charlottesville, PEN PARK is closed the weekend that we are there, they have a City Tournament. All the ones that are close to town have green fees of $ 80.00 or more on the Sunday morning of July 13th, which is the time that we need to schedule. We can get get courses that are quite a distance out, like 40 or 50 miles, but with the cost of gas, that would not be practical or cost effective. The best deal that I can arrange is a course at Crozet Va,. About 13 miles from the Hotel, If I get 20 golfers, green fees will be $ 59.00, under 20 will be $69.00. I'm sending this e-mail due to the fact that I do not have enough time to get this in the paper. If you wish to play, or know someone that wants to play, and maybe not on the e-mail list let them know please, the following will be the schedule. Sunday morning July 13th, leave Hotel at 7:00 AM Will set tee times for: 8:30 or so. Format will be Captain's choice: If you do not have a team, we will pair up; I have 5 players as of date. I need to know by June 20th. We can car pool from the hotel. Contact Chuck Allen, at chuk@hovac.com, or call 434-315-1570 The e-mail address does not have a c in chuk. The last couple of years we have not had, 20 players are more, so I would plan on $69.00 green fees. Also, this is not a tournament, just fun and bragging rights.
Thanks
