GOLF TOURNAMENT ANYBODY ???
We have had some discussion about organizing an annual golf tournament for the Ashbrook Community. The format would be “Captains Choice Best Ball” for groups of four. It may be a little late to get something organized for this season, but if we get enough interested parties we may be able to book something for early spring of 2010. To try and generate more interest, we would allow non-residents of Ashbrook but at least one resident would be required for each foursome. If you are interested and would like more information, contact Bill Ruitenberg at 804-639-0532 or e-mail billandjo94@comcast.net .
