Tee Off Fore Tots

Eagle’s Bluff Golf Course was the setting for this years Tee Off Fore Tots golf tournament.  84 golfers weathered a damp “back 9” to complete the most successful benefit golf tournament in the 12 year history of the tournament.  Over $17,000 was collected from the tournament and these proceeds will help the children of Pike County that do not have the financial capability to pay for medical services that are needed.

The winning team for this years tournament is Community State Bank.  The team shot 18 under par, total score of 54 to win the tournament.  Team members include: Adam Trower, Clancy Boyer, Clayton Strotch and Bill McIlroy.  Jackson Brothers Vending finished second with 15 under par score of 57.

On behalf of the PCMH Foundation a huge THANK YOU goes out to everyone that contributed and participated in the 2008 Tee Off Fore Tots golf tournament.
