I want to thank all the members of the Golfweek and Senior Amateur Tour / Orlando for another successful year:  I know those that wend to Hilton Head this year had a great time and are already looking to qualify again next year.  We hope those of you who could not go this year can qualify to represent us next year on the national stage.
