Golf tourney times filling up

By Kathy Thomson

Registration is still open for the Albany Golf Club’s annual Labor Day tournament, and according to president Randy Walker on Monday, both morning and afternoon tee times are available.

“We had a pretty good run last week, with several teams signing up, but we still have openings for both tee times,” said Walker. “However, we are out of rental golf carts.”

The Labor Day tournament is held at the Albany Golf Course. Registration for the two-person scramble is $80 per person ($160 per team) and includes one mulligan per player for each day of play and a brisket meal with all the trimmings on Saturday evening. 

Tee times on Saturday, Aug. 31 are 8:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Play continues on Sunday, Sept. 1 with teams flighted based on Saturday’s play.

Cash prizes will be awarded to the top teams in each flight.

For more information about the tournament or to register, contact James Waters at 325-627-3598 or Walker at 325-762-4177.

Weekly golf scrambles are held at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday afternoons. The entry fee for those events is $10 for club members and $15 for non-members.
