Join us on October 6th, 2024 at 9 A.M. for an unsanctioned 2 round event that will feature the following: 1) a morning singles round and 2) an afternoon doubles round, where your partner will be randomly selected. We will use a randomizer to select your partner on Saturday night after registration has closed. Partners and hole assignments will be posted via ScorePointe, 30 minutes prior to Rd 2.In the event, we have an uneven # of players and their needs to be a Mully designated, that player will also be randomly chosen as well.
