The Annual Wenatchee Sunrise Lions Club Putting For Sight tournament was held today at the 18-hole, par 72, championship putting course at Desert Canyon Golf Course near Orondo, Washington. The Puttermeisters fielded a team, but one of our regular team members, Karen Madison, could not play with us because she was one of the tournaments organizers. So, here is the team as it was today, from left to right: Donna Regan, Lisa Schmidt, Kris Bates, and Carol Williams. Kris is a good friend of ours and was a very worthy Puttermeister substitute.
This is definitely a fun course to play, but it played way slower than it usually does. Desert Canyon was recently repossesed by the bank and I think they are scimping on grounds maintenance. Don't get me wrong. It wasn't bad, but just not the usual. This is really a fun thing for two couples to do together. It takes less than two hours and is worth lots of laughs.
We left before the results of the tournament were in because Lisa needed to get back to work this afternoon. Our team had the low score posted at the time. This was the cumulative total of each players score (280). To the best of my knowledge, I had the low score of 67 when we left... but there were still several teams to come in. I'll report back in when we get the final results.

Late breaking news: The results are in. The Puttermeisters won the team title (for the second year in a row) by quite a large margin. I, indeed, did win the individual division honors again this year... defending my title from last year. This is a lot of pressure for next year! Way to go Puttermeisters!
