3rd Annual Golf Scramble
This year's golf tournament, held at the beautiful Salt Creek Golf Course on Tuesday, September 14 was a roaring success. The course wasn't in the greatest shape, but 4 individuals didn't seem to mind and walked away with the victory. Congratulations to Jeff Healy, Joe Miller, Brett Pickett and Rodger Keller, the 2010 Tournament Champions!
A special thanks to John Crist who has been organizing the golf outing for the past 3 years. The field gets more and more competitive every year and we are already looking forward to the 2011 outing at Glendarin Hills Golf Club in Angola, IN. If you are a golfer, and have not played this course, the Golf Committee would highly recommend that you take the extra day and enjoy an afternoon of golf with other INAFSM members. Surrounded by nature, the course is immaculate and proves challenging for golfers of all levels. Hope to see you next year!
