Thank you all for a great start to the 2013 season. We had one of our best fields, and I hope we can improve on it. It was great to see some of the old crowd and also a chance to welcome all the new members.

I want to thank Lyle Waddell, he is our resident weather priest!!, for the great weather and I hope he can keep it up the rest of the year.

I need to take a minute to remind the tour, we need to do a better job at pace of play. Sat, even though we had a shotgun start, we had groups come in after 4 ½ hours and the final groups coming in closer to five hours and 40 minutes. We ALL need to work on this, please. This is the biggest problem we face when we book these courses, we can’t have our tour get a reputation for slow play….. That could make us unwelcomed guest.

Now for the results for sat (you would have had this Sunday, but had computer problem)
