This week, new trees marked and scheduled to be planted at Shoaff and East Swinney. I also asked if we can get some new trees planted at West Swinney. I have been involved with The Arbor Day Foundation for almost 20 years!

Our inaugural club championship was held this past Saturday October 24, 2020. It was a chilly morning that turned into a beautiful fall day. There were 45 total competitors: 42 Men and 3 Women.

The weather conditions and the added pressure - made it very difficult to score at Shoaff. The cut line was at four (4) under par for the men and 22 folks were able to able to make the cut. All 3 women progressed to Tillman.

Our inaugural club championship was held this past Saturday October 24, 2020. It was a chilly morning that turned into a beautiful fall day. There were 45 total competitors: 42 Men and 3 Women.

Brent Koontz had the hot round at Shoaff shooting a blazing 16-under par and found himself on the lead card with Hohlbein (-12), Lomow (-10), and Kremer (-10). Some technical difficulties made it a mystery about how the lead card was fairing against Tillman while Sprunger and Wilson were making moves from the chase card. Ultimately, Koontz came out of the woods with a solid 5-under par on a very difficult layout and showed us why he is the best player in the Fort.

The top (3) finishers from the Men’s division:
1. Brent Koontz - (-21 ) $165
2. Brian Wilson - (-15) $115
3. Ben Lomow - (-13) $77
4. Caleb Sprunger - (-13) $77

Nikki Vaughan had herself a day! Shooting a total of 6-over on the day. Nancy and Courtney had a close battle for second place and Nancy was able to take it home.
