Golf Course Preparation

Wednesday morning started early with the striping of the golf course. This task was completed by the Over the Hill Gang from Lake Havasu City, and their help was very much appreciated. The "Give Away" tent was also erected and looks lonely without all the vendors.

Line at registration  We're ready for a good time  End of the line?

Our club members, in their red shirts, were also waiting and were all smiles as we anticipated a great week of fun for everyone.

Looks like everythings ready .....  We're ready.  So are we.

At registration, entrants picked up their goody bag, window sticker, wrist bands, kick-off party tickets, drink tickets, banquet tickets, dash plaque, silver mug and T-shirt. Our T-shirt vendor, Natural Tease, had a booth set up in registration on Wednesday and Thursday and had many other nice items for sale with the Run to the Sun logo on them. Below is a picture of our great looking event shirt, silver mug and dash plaque, that each participant received.

Tickets for the engine raffle and 50/50 were sold in registration on Wednesday and Thursday. During the show & shine on Friday and Saturday, tickets were sold from golf carts cruising the golf course. Tickets were only sold to participants and when the tickets were drawn at the end of the awards ceremony on Saturday, the winners had to be wearing a wrist band to collect their prizes.
