First place: Scott Borges, Bob Kromer, Tom Peppas and Steve Simpson, 129.

The Chico-Paradise SIR’s Golf Club traveled over to the west side and gave The Links at Rolling Hills Casino a run for its money last week (no pun intended). The format was a Scramble with a twist (there is always a twist.) Players could not use the same person’s tee shot back-to-back on the par 4 or par 5 holes. Payouts went down to six places, not only because of a good turnout of 46 players, but there was no stipend for closest to pin contests this time around.
