WARM weather and sunshine were in their hearts if not in reality, so the weather didn't stop folks from having fun.

The Arthur Hills designed course was in beautiful shape, and the weather was cooperative for the first CIC tournament of the season. The event, sponsored by Yark BMW and Coppus Mercedes in Tiffin, included lunch for the 14 teams with a reception following.
More than $7,000 was netted.
