This-Hurricane-Ain’t-Gonna-Stop-Us Golf Outing In golf and life, it’s how you react to the rain, not the rain itself
H urricane Matthew dropped only three inches of rain on Rowan
County, but golfers have run for cover with even less. But not
at Warrior Golf Club in China Grove on October 7. For the 10th
Annual Trinity Oaks Golf Tournament, all teams but one played the
entire 18 holes in the rain. And you know what? It was fun!
“Brian Lee at Warrior Golf Club told the teams that this was a golf
outing, not a tournament,” said Trinity Oaks Sales and Marketing
Director Ann Pressly. “At an outing, golfers help raise money for a good
cause, not to win prize money for themselves. His encouraging words
made all the difference. We all looked at the weather, golf and what we
were doing with a new level of fun and excitement.”
Golfers felt better about the rain after Brian Lee’s pep talk, but they also
kept score. Winners with a score of 51 were the foursome of Jeff Pressly,
Shane Sexton, Eric Burris and Billy Parker.
Golfers ranged in age from 5 to 86. And the 5-year old, Camden
Honeycutt, had one of the prettiest swings of golfers ten times his age.
Total proceeds were $10,900. Thanks to all our sponsors, golfers, and
friends who made the 2016 outing successful and fun.
