Champion Kerry Rutan

Wrap Up
Another great venue made it possible to host a fun, competitive, and memorable event. Mt. Vintage Plantation and Golf Club did not disappoint allowing birdies to be made at the same time jumping up and grabbing you with its defenses. Thank you to everyone who came and played. We look forward to seeing you again next year along with everyone else who couldn't make it. Until then...... as Nancy Lopez always says..... "Play Happy."
