Every year Konni and Rich Leichner host a summer golf scramble and potluck dinner for couples who are otherwise family-less on the 4th of July. The Leichner home is nicely situated near Holes 4, 5 and 6 of the Hayden Lake Country Club golf course, so they make potluck assignments, organize a 3-hole tournament, and arrange participants into 3-man teams. Players are allowed to carry only three clubs (I went with my driver, 7-iron and putter), rules are explained, and stakes are made ($5 per person) before the competition begins.
A beautiful evening, fun people, great food, and a few drinks along the way added to the holiday festivity. Fortunately, Tom's team came in 2nd, netting him $15 - a nice return on his $5 investment.
What a fun and clever event! Looks like quite the gathering of friends. It's good to hear that Dad won big on the course.
