Over $1600 in Prizes Awarded By Mark Wardlow, SHH Board Member:
The Santa’s Helping Hands 7th Annual Golf Scramble, sponsored by Alford’s Pharmacy, was blessed with a full field, great food, beautiful weather, and a little less heat than previous days. SHH would like to say a special thank you to Michael Meredith, Brad Johnson, and Greg Nugent for helping organize everything from signups, guidelines, rules, and teams. Mark Rich gave the blessing before the scramble started and then everyone began at their designated holes at Shady Hollow Golf Course, which was in excellent condition as always. Course owner Stanley Ramsey has always supported Santa’s Helping Hands. The pavilion was very popular because of the great food donated by Dad’s BBQ, lots of cold drinks donated by Houchens Industries, and the several fans that were brought by Rob & Lynette Saling. Between 1st, 2nd & 3rd place and 12 different holes to win prizes there were over $1,600 worth of Rafferty’s gift cards won on Saturday. Most of the teams were from Edmonson County but we also had teams from Louisville, Elizabethtown, Leitchfield, Franklin, Bowling Green, and Tennessee. When the scores were finally posted, nine out of the top 10 teams were from right here in Edmonson County. First place was awarded to the team consisting of Brad Johnson, Tommy Webb, Ty Johnson, & Matt Atwell. Second place finishers were Josh Jones, Mickey Jones, Dennis VanMeter, & Gary Minor, while third place went to Stanley Ramsey, J.C. Ramsey, Neil Vance, and Patrick Campbell. A 90 minute for-golfers-only raffle was held from 6:30am to 8:00am with Charlie Peck winning a Winchester SXP 12ga pump shotgun. Everyone at Santa’s Helping Hands would like to thank Alford’s Pharmacy for sponsoring our golf scramble this year as well as each and every one of the hole sponsors. We had more players and hole sponsors than previous tournaments, and we would also like to thank all the volunteers that helped put this tournament together. We will be starting our big “Kentucky Edition" Henry Rifles Raffle soon and our 19th Annual SHH Auction/Benefit will be held November 4th at the ECHS gymnasium. We are in the process of looking for items to be donated for our auction. Thanks to everyone who supports this charity where the money stays in Edmonson County. --from Mark Wardlow, SHH co-founder, and the SHH Board Members
