Men's 2011 "Opening" a Success in Spite of Rain

The BCC Men's Opening was held Saturday, May 14, 2011 with 102 members registered. Great turnout gang! Oh Yah! It rained all day. So golf was actually cancelled with everyone invited back to the BCC for the scheduled lunch.

But that didn't stop the hardy. A 3 person 9-hole scramble was quickly organized and 15 of BCC's finest headed out in the rain to complete an improvised and soggy match.
At noon, the vast majority of the Men's Opening registrants returned for a fine lunch prepared by our staff. Special thanks to Denise and Joanne who were able to pull the lunch up to noon from 2:00 pm with very little notice.
Following lunch, Club Captain Dale Watts and our Pro Derek MacDonald drew names for a long list of prizes. Along with Dale and Derek members thanked Paul Darby and Kent Swirsky for organizing the day and getting the large draw put together.


It may have rained, but the 2011 BCC Men's Opening was a great success with a super turnout of members. The gang is raring to go ... the course is in great shape .... so bring on the sun!!
