Would like to thank all who came out Saturday night for this year’s Annual Awards Banquet. It was a great evening. Would like to congratulate Kelli Eagen and Jean Ackerman for being selected as Members of the Year. And would also like to congratulate Russ Bastian, our Superintendent, for being selected as Employee of the Year. All are 3 are well deserving of the awards. And of course would like to thank Bill and Tammy for the great dinner and Mary, Melynne, Aaron and Madison for the great service. It takes a lot of hard work and effort in running both a golf course, bar and restaurant. It simply would not be possible without the hard work and dedication of all the Lake Ridge staff. So please thank all the employees for all they do. Pictures of this year’s event have been downloaded to our Facebook page for your viewing pleasure.
Want to give a shout out to Brett Hahn for shooting a “59” last week. What an amazing round. Brett shot 30 – 29 in route to setting a new 18 hole course record. Great round Brett. And if anyone needs a little help with their game, give Brett a call at GolfTEC. He obviously knows how to play the game.
