Fall 2005 Habitat Golf Tournament A Success

Capitalizing on fantastic weather, the Habitat Golf Tournament drew together more than 70 players at Meadows Farms Golf Course on September 30. This marked the 12th golf tournament for Habitat in Orange County and by far exceeded the size of the three prior tournaments. The morning opened with a bit of a chill in the 50s, but the continental breakfast helped to warm that chill.

• The team of Glenn Robinson, George Allman, CID, and Buzz took first places honors with a blistering rounding of 58.
• The second place team of John Faulconer, Jim Kite, John Nettles, and Tom Flarey scored an impressive 61.
• Closest to the pin on #13 (on Longest Nine) was Matt Quillon, driving accuracy or closest to the line on #11 (on Longest Nine) was Jim Hoffmann.

Upon completion of the Tournament everyone gathered at the Clearwater Grill for an absolutely delicious and bountiful buffet. Our collective hats are off to the owners – Lenny and Juli Schafer for being a most gracious sponsor of Habitat's golf tournament. Herndon Chevrolet sponsored the hole-in-one contest this year. Everyone left in the same car they came in. Maybe next year we can have a winner.

Among the many other sponsors are: Orange County Review, Orange Paint Center, Custom Printing, Mason’s Insurance, Senator Houck, Delegate Scott, Dr Hugh Teller, Breeden’s Auto repair, Purvis Ford, Mr. & Mrs. John Henry, Marvin Snoddy, Mr. & Mrs. Mike Hill, and Dr. William Crawford, Superintendent of the Orange County Public Schools.
