Fort Steilacoom Open **A-tier** July 2 & 3, 2011

It's pretty awesome that the Readings will be in attendance.

What would be even more awesome is if they both took second place in their respective divisions.

Ahem. Ahem.

Are there going to be doubles on Friday night?

Great playing Jessie Westphal! Only two strokes off of Des Reading; good luck on Sunday!

[PuttsRrad]

The Readings won their respective Divisions, but Jessie Westphal did great! Also, a shout out to Tom Bontempo, Russell Cannon who tied Tyler Butler, and Andrew Rich for coming in 2nd place in the Open! :O) beating Barry Schultz! :O) congrats....

Where was Kyle Crabtree?

Here are the results with the finals included.


Scores

Three of the REVO MINI bags that were given out didn't get their hard plastic insert. If you are the owner of one of these bags with no insert from the tourney, please get in touch with me and I'll get you hooked up.

Thanks to all that attended. I had a lot of help from the club and a crew of volunteers that made all the holes run smoothly. Seriously, I had more volunteers than I have ever had before and that is what will continue to help this event (any event) become more and more successful. Thanks needs to go to Kurt Bayne, Sumo, & Justin for sleeping at the course in order to keep the temp baskets and tourney central safe. Mark Kilmer for organizing work parties and then just showing up with his own mower until the fairways were spectacular.

Thanks to Jay & Des Reading for giving me a lot of helpful feedback on the tournament. That clinic was pretty cool too.

I simply can't run this event without Ryan Gwillim, Kathy Rideout (awesome wife), & Rob Smith. These three are an essential part of the Fort Steilacoom Open team. Don't get me wrong, every job related to the event is important, but this event wouldn't run on time without these guys. It would be sloppy without them. Ryan Gwillim keeps that tent running sharp - I don't know how he gets those cards counted and organized so fast. Kathy checks every single player in and gives me clear data on every little thing that changes or needs attention - then she helps with anything needed the rest of the weekend. Rob took on the ultra confusing tasking of managing this year’s player's packs - wow, three different options depending on when you signed up (due to the REVOLUTION fiasco) and he did it flawlessly while amateur players were lined up growling to get through as fast as they could.

I owe you guys all the success of the tournament.

Thank You

Mike

Thanks for the support. I always have an awesome time playing Steily. I started playing there in 1998 and the course has never looked so good. A big shout out to Mark Kilmer and all the volunteers who made the course prestine. Any time I was in a bush I threw a bad shot, lol. It was an honor to compete with Barry and edge him by a stroke in the end. Congrats to Dion for an awesome Final 9 and obviously to Ricky for his stellar performance all weekend. See everyone at Lake Tahoe!!
