 Notables - Thanks to Chilly for bringing us heartening information mid round which served to lighten our understated concern. Thanks also Chilly for showing us how a Venza handles with 14 Slammers draped all over it.
- Thanks to Lydia for sharing Ticklar with us.
- In a TC "A" division semifinal, Juice beat ZenGirl on the 17th hole and advances.
- A Slammer Tour salute to eQuinelle for shuffling the deck and getting us out ahead of our tee time, and for your outstanding and genuine hospitality.
- Fifteen Slammers had 40 3 putts, and the Make a Wish Children's charity is .50 richer for every one.
- Honourable mention to Raker for defeating Bookie for the first time ever, on the 18th hole. Raker also lost a 100 yard dash against his umbrella on the 7th fairway.
- Thanks to Kadaver for his caligraphy on his really cool donation of the 1st Star prize of a Callaway Big Bertha driver head circa 1993 with a stub of a hickory shaft in the hosel.
- Honourable mention to TinMan and AluminumMan for their epic 18 hole battle which saw them shoot identical scores...and tie!
- In addition to DeeJay and Juice each winning 2 FitforeGolf skins, Cuba also had 2 with Motown and Mother getting the others, worth $8.
- TanCo doggies were won by Juice who had 2 and Bookie with 1, and with the 13th hole not hit and subsequently 2 putted. Each was worth $23.
- Thanks to Bookie for handling last minute Dog Duties, Grumpy for ably and concisely doing skins duty and Aluminuman for Photomastering for posterity!

Summary
Sixteen Slammers, some from as far away as Cornwall, came out to one of our favourite venues in spite of threatening cold and rain, and battled through an emotional event as one of our own was felled just before tee time. It's only a game, but it's not just a game.
| Stars |
 |
Juice |
|
This fine golfer squeezed almost every drop of money out of the money tree as she had 2 birdies with 2 dogs and 2 skins and won 2 matches and tied the other. Word is she would have had another dog but couldn't quite seal the deal by making par. To top off her golf day, she and ZenGirl went back out on the course after the Slammer event because that's the way this star rolls! Inspiring ! |
|
DeeJay |
|
As a last minute addition to the fearsome twosome of Motown and Kadaver, DeeJay humbled both as he went 2-0. When he woke up this morning he was ranked #34 and tonight he almost topped the charts, and stands at #3 on the Slammer parade! He played the blue tees and had 2 birdies which held up for skins as well. Commanding! |
|
Ticklar |
|
This most honoured Slammer brethren was unable to tee it up due to medical reasons. He arrived for a morning meal with some fellow Slammers and left at a high rate of speed with lights flashing and Chilly in pursuit. Ticklar's remark to us in the midst of his troubles told us all he felt safe and cared for, and his indomitable humour almost seemed as if he was more worried for us! Chilly brought us welcome and needed news mid round and later we heard only very encouraging updates. A Slammer Group Hug! |
