1st Annual Kathy Allen Memorial 3 Lady Scramble: A Fantastic Success
Submitted by Sharon Berg
With temperatures in the mid 20’s, the first annual Kathy Allen Memorial 3 Lady Scramble was well attended with 18 teams registering for the 18-hole best ball golf tournament. The ladies enjoyed a light breakfast on the deck before heading out onto the course. The golf course was in amazing shape and our thanks goes out to Danny and Stacey for doing a beautiful job of maintaining our greens and fairways this year.

Both rounds featured a “Hole in One Contest” sponsored by Kay and Doug Dingman. Joan & Ken Mick kept a watchful eye on hole #2 but no one walked away with the $10,000 prize up for grabs. We also had a chance to “Beat the Pro” on hole #8. The ladies had tons of fun picking the club Josh or Jayden would use to hit the green but if the ladies ball was closer to the pin, their name went in the draw.
After completing the first 9 holes, all the golfers returned to the clubhouse and were treated to a delicious lunch prepared by Stephanie and the indoor staff. The golfers were then flighted into the A, B, or C divisions for their second round of play by Brad and Robert. During lunch, the ladies bought tickets on the bucket draws and had a chance to play the famous “Pluck-a-tee” in hopes of winning some fabulous prizes which were donated by generous local businesses and individuals from Oyen and surrounding areas. Shaune ran a challenging putting contest during the 18 holes of golf.
After golfing was completed, the ladies enjoyed a hot roast beef supper with all the fixings and dessert. A big thank you goes out to the tournament organizers, ladies who helped set up, our registration volunteers, muffin bakers, our ticket sellers, and anyone else who helped make this day a huge success.
When scores were tallied, the final results of the day were as follows:
Flight A – 1st – Deb K, Colleen, Kim
2nd – Erin, KarenAnn, Sharon
3rd – Brittany, Erin, Michelle
Flight B – 1st – Kris, Linda, Eileen
2nd – Deb H, Cailey, Susanne
3rd – Bev G, Sandi, Brenda

Many beautiful prizes were donated by local businesses and individuals which were awarded as hole prizes, put in the bucket draws, or won in the “Pluck –a tee” contest. Once again thank you to our golfers and we hope to see you back again next year!
