News at the Course:
Congratulations, Lynn Mitchell, the West Marshall Girls' Golf Coach, her assistant, Becca DeWild, and the six young ladies who qualified for the state meet:  Juree Muench, Susan Johnson, Kaitlyn Randall, Abbey Barry, Taylor Davis, and Shawna Pfantz.  To win the Regional Golf Meet and qualify for state is one awesome accomplishment, and this team should be very proud.  I know their parents surely are.  And, with only one senior on this team, the future appears to be very promising.

Parting Thought:
Lincoln Valley's 30 Year Anniversary:  If you are someone who would like to be a part of planning something special to celebrate our wonderful golf course's thirty years of existence, please call the club house and give Aaron or Kathy your name and number.  After some very difficult decisions over the last five months, and having many generous people step up to help, we have much for which to celebrate.  The plan is to have this celebration this August.
