These are good people and a worthy cause and a busman's holiday for them. Last year I flew cross-country to play in their tournament and was welcomed with open arms. Played with Mark Mungeam, who I still owe a bunch of pictures. My check will be in the mail tomorrow. Some great courses in the mix for ticket winners. I think GCAers won two foursomes of golf.

My day at Nantucket Golf Club via Steve's raffle and Sankaty Head with The Black Hand was still a Top 5 day in golf for me.

Check in the mail today....

Still haven't won yet, but I'll be entering this year for sure. If I were to win, I might end up donating the tickets to another entrant who would use them, so if you enter, it's almost like you have an extra chance...

I wonder if, just maybe, among the "Plus Thirty other courses in northeast" is the Rat & Toilet Plunger Club....

Paul,

Played at The Hills in the 2 day member guest over the weekend and ran into all of the Everbrown GC crew.  Do you still run that event??

Thanks for the support!

Hello All:

On a sad note, we had to cancel the event this year and the raffle will be drawn on Nov. 1st.  I will post winners then.  This also means you can still purchase tickets.

Best,
Steve

A "present"arrived in today's mail from the ATF. Four people at Brian Silva's Red Tail in Devens, MA. If I make the trip it will probably be in conjunction with the 2013 ATG tournament.

Checked the mail this morning and we now have three lucky GCA winners! Got a round for 4 at Waconah GC in the Berkshires. Thanks again Steve.

Pete,

We are planning to have the 2013 at TPC of Boston which would parlay the Red Tail round well.

Cheers,
Steve

Steve,
Thank you for the update on TPC Boston, but it's unlikely I'll attend the Troll tournament. I already have two east coast golf trips planned, Streamsong and Nova Scotia. Maybe I can tie Red Tail in to the latter destination.
