2014 End of the Year

 The Four Stooges
2014 World Champions

Another great season of golf comes to an end. The group was started in 1999 and the closing of Donovan may threaten the end of the group with no alternative place to play when Kellogg is not available on Sundays. The Peoria Park District has alienated the weekend golfer by closing a course. Have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I am hoping for a mild winter.
