Partner Partner and Couples Barbecue - May 3rd
Still time to sign up, but please RSVP this week. We need an accurate count for the barbecue to order food and libations. We have several players looking for partners - Let us know if you can play. Those not playing in the tournament are invited to the barbecue - $10 per couple; $5 per single.
Barbecue - 6PM at Rick and Donna Armstrong's home in Walden Pond (2023 Sandy Pond Lane ). We will have BBQ, hush puppies, slaw, rolls, desert, keg of beer, wine, soft drinks/mixers. BYOB if you want something other than beer or wine. We will have a few activities, such as corn hole, horse shoes, etc. and a Kentucky Derby wager. Rick lives on a pond so you can do a little fishing if you'd like.
We look forward to seeing you and<< Test Spouse >>
