June 23, 2003 The Annual Red White and Blue Golf Scramble for the benefit of the Humane Society of St. Thomas, held on Sunday at Mahogany Run, was a great success for the society and participants alike.
This year's golf outing came off without a hitch thanks to the ICC/Prosser Foundation, the event's sponsor, and the many volunteers and players, a release from the Humane Society stated.
"We had 108 players this year and hope to have raised around $15,000 for the operation of the shelter," a Humane Society spokesman said.
In an unexpected illustration of the event's purpose two abandoned dogs brought to the tournament by Cara Hinton and Zona Corbin were adopted into new homes.
The tournament was a best-ball scramble, and the following are the results:
