Thank You Message from Commandant Dennis Spry, Sr.
Members,
First of all, I want to apologize for being a bit snippy at the tear down of the tournament. The pressure got to me. I'm sorry if anyone was offended. We just had too many chiefs and no Indians trying to run the thing. That won't happen in future tournaments. Second, I want to thank all of our awesome volunteers. Without all of you, this tournament wouldn't be able to happen. You all are so much appreciated by the Tournament Committee. Third, I want to give thanks to my co-chair and to the rest of our committee for all of your help. Now, it's on to planning next year's tournament.
The tournament was a great success other than the extreme rain, which was out of everyone's control. We had some other hiccups that we will learn from, but the golfers were happy with the way we streamlined our raffle this year, the quick and easy check-in, and the tournament overall. There are things that need to be fixed, and we will do that in planning for next year. Again, Thank You all So very much for what you all do for our League.
