 2013 Golfnut trip to Eagle Ridge Resort
 Rick and Dusty help John celebrate his birthday
It's hard to beat 4 Kings

15 golfers traveled to Galena Illinois and played the very challenging South, General and North courses at Eagle Ridge Resort. Only a slight rain delay on the first day dampened the trip as the weather cooperated and all golf was completed. We had 3 golfers, Mark Wintczak, Rick Farnan, and Jerry Schraeder make the trip for the first time. A venture to Diamond Joe's Casino proved rewarding to a few crap players and Steve McDowell was white hot on the slots. Next year marks our 15th  year of this golf outing so save the date on your calendar.
EZ Bill celebrates 84 years on June 2nd
