Don’t you LOVE this time of the year? There is a little snap in the air, and we are starting to see a little color change in some of the leaves. What a GREAT TIME to be playing golf in Fort Worth, Texas!
Some of you are probably thinking it’s time to wind down and start looking at other endeavors besides golf. We can assure you there are still plenty of golfing opportunities to come over the next couple of months, and DON’T FORGET TO MARK YOUR CALENDARS for our year-end event. We are going to celebrate a year of accomplishments on December 4th at Shady Valley Country Club.
See below for other great opportunities.

Canyon West Pink Ball Tournament
We came full force to Canyon West on September 18th for the 9:00 a.m. shotgun start of our Pink Ball Tournament. (Okay… the balls were more of a bright tangerine, but that only made them easier to track!)
The weather was AMAZING! Anytime you can start the round in a light jacket and start peeling it off at the turn… that’s a great day on the course.
Here’s how the tournament worked. Each team was made up of an A, B, C, & D player and was given a sleeve of 3 pink golf balls. Starting on the first hole, the “A” player teed off with the pink ball and played it until she holed out. The “B” player played the pink ball on the 2nd hole, the “C” player on the third hole, and the “D” player on the 4th hole. Then everybody started over in the rotation. The objective was to show up after the round with all three pink balls.
T
eam members Lisa Papes, Joanna Cloud, Jan Ray, and Jeannen Provost were the big winners of the day.
