The teams of Mike and Dan Korpita and Kevin Bagge and Andy Rogers were knotted at 2nd with scores of 69. On the Net side, Roger Frant did well being on the 1st and 2nd (tied) Net teams in the Net scoring. Roger and Jeff Gold took first Net on Sunday and 2nd Net was split between the teams of Frant and Sandy McNiven (Saturday) and Glenn and Sandy Allan.

Consistent with the greens recovery program laid out here by Superintendent Carl Teschke and the Greens Committee, the first steps toward winter preparations began Monday December 3rd, 2018.  A course-wide aeration program began immediately before heavy frost sets in for the winter (see photos below) and additional treatments and greens renovations this winter and early spring should lead to outstanding course conditions for 2019.
