Two Amazing Feats and a day FULL of fun!
Food, drink, volunteers, sunshine….an abundance of each came together for the annual Chamber Golf Extravaganza on May 6, 2011 at Maple Ridge Golf Course sponsored by B&B Beverage. The beautiful weather almost upstaged the golf itself. Over 250 people attended the event co-chaired by Mike Mayhew of Automated Business Machine and Richie Grantham of Sunshine Banners and Signs. Every tee was sponsored by a Chamber member and food, prizes and goody’s flooded the course.
Jay Buick GMC was the Hole in One sponsor for the Golf Extravaganza. The tournament produced 2 hole in ones! The chances of getting a hole in one are a 1 in 3,000 chance according to Golf Digest.

Brent Wright make a hole in one at the 13th hole of the course and won a set of Callaway RAZR X irons presented to him by Jay Buick GMC. Brent had a lot of support from the crew at Batson Cook, which sponsored hole 13th with a White Water Rafting themed tent that even included kayakers in the lake!
Jason Stansell made a hole in one at the 2nd hole and won a 2011 GMC Terrian from Jay GMC. Jason received the keys to his new car this week. When asked how his wife reacted when he told her the news, “She didn’t believe me at first, I had to tell her several times for it to sink in.”

Jason played on the Colony Bank with team members Nolan Pendleton, John Roberts and Brian Williams. Needless to say, the Colony Bank team also walked away the over all winners of the tournament and 2nd place went to Mid-South Metals.
Carmike Cinemas was named the overall best decorated tee recognition and Hartin Electric won 2nd place.
Everyone in attendance walked away a winner with new business contacts, opportunities and exposure that you cannot get anywhere else. Thanks to all the sponsors and to the committee members—events like this are not successful without the support of all that contribute!
