Club president, Glenda Epps was continually on hand to help give support for this tournament as was Tootie Chittenden.

These were the partners having ramped up their skills from ordinary to extraordinary who accepted the handsome plaques honoring their success.

 

The first to fourth place finishes were by these teams:

First place: Kristi Brinegar and Sharyn Metzner, playing out of Villa del Monte.

Second place: led by Nadine Hackett and Fran Hayner from Hemet Muni.

Third place: Jeannie Gregory and Harry Gregory, bringing together their team from El Grande Estates.

Fourth place: Helen Bell, directing a team made up of SDSE players.

Again, Harlan Mathews down-loaded wonderful photos of the four top teams.

A number of participants stepped forward to receive their awards from the door prize drawings.

As is now a tradition, Aaron Young, officer of The Bank of Hemet, stopped by to hand out the awards to the winners.

We commend the bank for their funding and sponsorship.

Careful maintenance of the boards was in the hands of Paul Epps.

Looking forward to a well-run tournament like this next year.
