SummerFest Golf Scramble this Saturday

ROYAL CITY - There were still berths available on Monday in the Royal City Summerfest Scramble Golf Tournament this Saturday, July 6, and teams will still be taken on Saturday if there are spots available.

Late registration for the tournament will be at 8 a.m. on Saturday. But with only 11 berths allotted, they may all be taken by then.

There will be prizes for each team that makes it into the lowest-scoring third of the mixed field, PGA Pro Randy Puetz said. You can make up your own teams. They can be four men, four women or a combination of four men and women.

In a scramble, after all four players hit their tee shots, they move to the ball with the best result and take their second shots and so on until the hole is completed.

Summerfest Scramble is a fund-raiser for the support of the golf course. Players will be able to purchase mulligans for $4 each. And there will be a beverage cart.

The tournament will get under way at 9 a.m. with a shotgun start. The entry fee will be $30 for public players and $25 for members of the golf club.

Powered golf cars are available, but they must be reserved.

There will be special event holes such as long drive, closest to the pin, longest putt made and team straight drive.
