The Lucky 13th Annual Coach Harry Groves Golf Tournament is Coming!

A gimmee for sure.
In a meeting of the Official Idiots in Charge today, preparations for the weekend of fun were finalized. Clark Haley and Harry Smith have been busy in firming things up for us.  Some highlights:

  1. The Golf Tournament is on May 17 at 12:00 Noon at the Former Elks Club Course, now called Mountain View Country Club.  18 Hole Shotgun start with a four-man best ball format (whatever the technical name is!) where you get to choose the best of your foursomes shots on every shot.  There will be some skill events before the golf begins with a 50/50 monetary prize involved.  Maybe Mark Hawkins can sink another 40-footer...
  2. There will be a Friday night reception, May 16 at 7:00PM for everyone involved at the Hampton Inn/Damon's Complex on Rt. 26 near the track.
  3. There will be a Awards Dinner back at Damon's following the golf. The comedy ramblings of Clark Haley as host will award prizes to just about everyone.
  4. There will be a Climb of Mount Nittany for those not golfing for the seventh year in-a-row.
  5. Fees will be $150 this year.*
  6. Efforts are underway to expand the Council of Idiot Officers to include members from every decade, sex and every track and field discipline. Everyone is invited and welcome in our group!
  7. All monies raised above costs are destined for the Coach Harry Groves scholarship endowment.  Help ensure the continued presence of PSU Track and Field.
  8. A block of special rate rooms has been set aside again at the Hampton Inn.  Use code PST when booking the room.
Questions and suggestions are always welcome.  We would appreciate everyone taking the time to spread the word to Alumni unaware of our efforts.
