12:00pm – 5:30pm The Golf outing will be held at the Mountain View Country Club (old Elks Club) again this year with the putting contest taking place at 11:15. If you need clubs, there are always folks bringing extra sets so you don’t have to worry about renting (be sure to let us know when you register so we can plan to have them there).
1:00pm – 3:00pm Activities for those not golfing. Depending upon weather and volunteers, we usually have a group gathering to hike Mt.

Some of the present team members will be in town and possibly at the morning run at the track. Some may join us at the evening reception.
