Plum Creek results are now available.

• CTGA welcomed New Members DERICK FISHER, JUSTIN HEATHCOAT, ALEX LEATHERMAN, and MICHAEL POWERS, and Special Guest JUAN MALDONADO to our Plum Creek tournament.
• Because of our 2 rain cancelled tournaments this year, we’ve scheduled a make-up tournament on Saturday, September 21 at Colovista in Bastrop. See Upcoming Events above for details.
• 2013 Fall Classic countdown: with the make-up we’ll have 4 remaining events prior to the Classic and 2 before the FedEx Cup playoffs.
• We’ve received 32 Survey responses to date. That’s 23%....not what we hoped for, but enough for us to move forward if we don’t get any more.

A good turnout for this weekday event. Not sure why they had us play “cart path only” with the little rain they had Wednesday night as the fairways were in good condition.
