Joint Chapter Event with Upstate SC!

We had a great turnout for our Greenville weekend getaway trip for the Joint Chapter Event with SC Upstate! Members traveled down to Duncan, SC to play at River Falls with members of the Upstate chapter. The day's contests were lowest amount of putts and closest to the pins on the par 3s. Nancy B took home 2nd place in lowest putts with Judy tying for 3rd place. Lots of birdies were recorded for sure. The course was a challenging but fun Gary Player design where local knowledge was very helpful! Following the round, we stayed and socialized with our new friends at a happy hour where the first drink was hosted by the host chapter. Afterwards, many of our members stayed overnight and explored Greenville then woke up to play in Inman, SC on our way home. 6 Members teed off Sunday Morning at Woodfin Ridge for a hot but relaxed round before finishing the drive home. A special Thank You to Fannie for assisting with the tee prizes and to all of our members who made this trip successful! We can't wait to host SC Upstate next fall in Charlotte to show them the ropes around one of our favorite locations. We look forward to hosting a few more travel opportunities in the future so keep an eye out for future plans!
