The event had a great turnout at Buckingham Golf Course. Several teams played an exciting round of golf. Congratulations to the winners: Gary Lopez, the putting contest champion, and the winning team consisting of Bobby Rowe, Dick Ogden, Stuart Yeomans and Peter Wagschall.
The winners received donated from several members of the Lake County business community. Aardvark Termite donated a generous gift basket just days before the tournament and it was awarded to our winning team of golfers.
The association will apply the funds, totaling $1,355, to its 2010 Lake County High School Scholarship Fund.
They thanked all of their tee sponsors, raffle ticket purchasers, golf teams and thanked local business owners for donations. A special thank you was sent to Buckingham Golf and Country Club for use of the course and the fabulous spaghetti dinner after the event.
The association also thanked the event organizers from the LCAOR Scholarship Committee: Leslie Kirschner, Kayln Noble, Shevaun Stanfill, Rob Ishihara, Julie Alves and Ann Marie Borges. Their planning and participation made this fun-filled event successful beyond their expectations.
