What a great golf day we had at St. Petersburg Country Club on October 21st. Our annual Member/Guest Tournament in April was cancelled due to COVID so we scheduled our regular monthly outing there this month.
The weather cooperated with cloud cover, only a few sprinkles and a cool breeze. The island green on Hole #17 had been recently rebuilt and posed quite a challenge. Lunch was provided to be picked up at the turn and after play we met outside on the patio for our awards and golf stories!
First Place at -3: Tom Ritschel, Bill Casey, Isabel Schoenberg, Mike McDonough Second Place at Even: Dawn Eckhart, Karen Lieberman, Guy Anderson, Jay Marshall
win for a team representing the Wing Shooters. The friendly competition was held at Sarasota Trap Skeet and Clays with over 25 teams competing.

Happy Holidays to all, as we have scheduled our December for the Innisbrook Golf Resort at the Island course, and on December 3rd we will be celebrating our accomplishments at our annual party at the Club with dinner, dancing, and libations. Also, the word is that there will be a special guest who will visit from the North Pole Golf
