Many thanks to the FORTY-NINE members who attempted to answer at least one question during our 10-week contest.  We had two members try just once but they went 0 for 1 and were never heard from again.

 

Not everybody played each time and as it turned out, you had to have a perfect score to become eligible for each semi-final prize.  Here are the players who are eligible for the four prizes but they can only win one prize:

 

Grand Prize $50 TOPGOLF Gift Certificate:  Jimmy Traverse and Tim Marburger.  Along with Larry Walker and Don Knight, these four answered nine questions correctly. As President and Vice President, Larry and Don aren’t eligible to win the grand prize but after much whining, they’ll be eligible for the semi-final prizes. (Larry and Don would’ve gone 10 for 10 but they chose poorly on that one vs two putts from 5 feet question.)   

 

Q1-3 Towel Magnet Prize:  Don Becker, Don Knight, Terry Lapp, Tim Marburger, Marc Sims, Phil Sosalla, Joe Staten, Fred Steffers, John Szostak, Jimmy Traverse, Mike Trivette and Larry Walker. 

 

Q4-6 Logo Divot Repair or Pet Golf Towel:  Terry Bennett, Charles Couch, John Hayes, Terry Lapp, Tim Marburger, Kent Rodgers, Marc Sims, and Jimmy Traverse.

 

Q7-10 Mystery prize requiring mugshot:  Don Becker, Don Knight, and Larry Walker.

 

At my next OPC, we’ll do a blind draw to select the winner for the Grand Prize first, then the Q7-10, Q4-6 and Q1-3 winners.  You need not be present to win.

 

But we all won, didn’t we?  Got into the rules a bit.  We all got a little smarter, didn’t we?  (Well, some more than others and some not at all.)

 

And to show my appreciation, everybody who played gets an EMGA Member Poker Chip.
