2023 Golf

Monday, November 27, 2023

Spring Valley Golf Course Peter Catherwood, Ken Hengst, Reza Mostafavi, Charlie Raisor and Ken Walling played a fun round, had a nice lunch and failed to win anything but it was still a wonderful day! 

On Tuesday September 26 Area 11 Tournament at Pacific Grove was a gorgeous day of sunshine but few birdies. Ken Hengst, Atsu Fujiyama, Glenn Darragh, Peter Catherwood, Charlie Raisor and Ken Walling enjoyed the beautiful vistas, sunshine and pretty good golf even though we did not win.

On August 14 we enjoyed two firsts. Our newest member Reza Mostafavi and Frank Conrad and Gayatri joined us for a round of golf at Los Lagos.

It was a windy day but Peter Catherwood took 2nd place in 2nd flight. In the first flight, Ken Hengst was 5th, Charlie Raisor 13th and Ken Walling 9th. We had a fun day even though the scores were not as good as expected. It must have been the wind!

This was a fun challenge. Up and down hill, narrow fairways with blind shots and a few bolder challenges. Charlie Raisor, Peter Catherwood, Bob Feldman, Glenn Darragh and Ken Walling had a lot of fun but set no records nor won any prizes.
