QUESTION: What do these things have in common? Do you want to call a friend, or pick someone from the audience?
ANSWER: The Alan R Wakefield Memorial Golf Tournament, sponsored by the Corona Rotary.
I know you want to go....its a day outside in the sun, convivial companionship, and best of all you're not at WORK. A few drives, several putts, the occasional "fore" and you are a happy camper.
Peter Fischetti wrote a great article about this "sporting event" in the Friday, October 7th edition of the Press-Enterprise, read it and you will WANT to support this cause. Here's a sampling,"Nothing could stop Alan Wakefield from playing golf. It could be raining, and he would say, “Great, the greens will hold.” A windy Santa Ana straightened his hook. The heat of summer loosened his joints, and what we call cold weather in Corona meant nothing to a guy who grew up in western Pennsylvania.
No, nothing could stop Alan Wakefield from playing golf."
For those of you who want to know the legendary stars are shown in the picture ...
