Recap of Annual Golf
Tournament |
The weather gods were on our side
for the Convention Bureau's annual golf tournament!
It was mostly sunny with a temperature in the 80s and golfers were
geared up to play a successful round of golf at
Saratoga National Golf Club. Tee time was at 1:30 pm
and golfers were finishing up by 6:30 pm. The buffet
reception took place in a newly constructed banquet
hall at National and attracted both non-golfers and
golfers. Prizes from our donators were given out
while a slideshow of pictures from the day's
activities played in the background on two flat
screen televisions. The Bureau would like to thank
everyone who was involved in making this event an
enjoyable and fun day!
