IT'S HARD to believe it's been ten years since Carl Wilson went from walking beside us to watching over us, and what better way to honor him than by enjoying an absolutely perfect day of golf while we reminisce great days past with friends and family. While the Wilsons unfortunately couldn't join us this year as they were awaiting the newest member of the Wilson family — Neva Venae Wilson, born Wednesday, August 6th (only four days after the outing!) — Billy Hinsche and Terry Karges were in attendance to show their support and enjoy the festivities with fans and golfers alike.

Even though the Scramble didn't begin until Saturday morning, the fans coming in from out of town like to enjoy one another's company the night before in the pub. Brenda Berry, Jeff Place, Ron Jennison, and Brian Berry socialize over dinner on Friday night.

One of the greatest things about these outings is bringing together the lifelong fans from all over the map. Enjoying a perfect 82° day in the sun, Jeff Green, Ben Valley, Randy Hutchinson, and Ron Jennison pose for a photo on the course.

A little birdie told me that these four gentlemen were high school friends and haven't enjoyed one another's company as a group in about twenty years. Eric Mullikin, Gary Geniusz, Rick Wowianko, and Brian McEllis decided that golfing against cancer would be the perfect opportunity to catch up on old times and fight for a great cause at the same time.
