1117.0. "The International,Spring'91" by USEM::VOUTSELAS () Thu Nov 29 1990 16:12

    
    Would you like to start the new Spring season by playing
    one of the most famous courses in the world ?
    
    On April 29th, 1991 (Monday) , a few DEC employess are putting
    on a charity golf tournament for a worthy local charity at
    The International, Bolton, Mass.
    
    It will be a shotgun starting at 1:00.
    
    The fee is 150.00 per person. And it includes:
    
                *  A grille buffet, which personally I can speak for
    is one of the best you'll ever enjoy.(the DEC league had 1 outing
    there)
                 
                *  Carts and greens fees.
    
                *  Drinks, (beer?) and horsd'oeuvres
    
                *  Gross and net prizes, plus team prizes
    
    Primary DEC contact is:
                   
                * Sharon Mandell@PKO   or USEM::Mandell
                * Mail Stop  :   PKO3-2/B16
    
    If you can indicate here if you are interested, it would be
    appreciated .Thanks, Ang.

1117.2Unofficially..USEM::VOUTSELASFri Nov 30 1990 12:4911
     Sharon is still putting the official charity name together
    but it's for children's playgrounds.
                    could be:
                      "Coca Cola open"
                      "Pepsi Cola open"
                     "Bud Lite Bolton Open"
                         "Miller lite Bolton open"
    
    as soon as it's "official" i will post.

    UPDATE to INTERNATIONAL tnt:
    
                 "A Day at the International" is official
                  name. Playground imrovements for Bolton.
                  It's a non profit 501C org so it's tax
                  deductible- see your tax man.
    
                  I would say checks are due after the
                  holidays, but I'll post. ??
                 We first need a feel for how many??
    
                 I have a foursome now.

      Hi,..
        was wondering if we're supposed to get any type of confirmation
    note or whatever from someone regarding this tourney?...we sent in
    our $$ a few weeks ago and haven't heard or received any type of
    acknowledgement from anyone regarding receivement of our payment.

1117.12needs to improveJUPITR::OTENTIWed Mar 11 1992 10:1141
    
     Having played this tournament last year, i have to say its by far
    the most LAME tournament i've ever played in! One would think that for
    his $150 (ya, sure..its the priviledge of playing the course) that they
    would have had a better organized, "after the golf is done" program..
    after the golf was all said and done and you were all showered up you
    went up for dinner...had dinner...out came the prizes..about 4 or so..
    and that was it...wham-bang..your on your way home..i'd say from the
    time we sat down to the time to go home was no more than 1 1/2 hours
    and i think thats dragging it out abit.
    
    I'm by no means any type of real golfer but do enjoy the game alot and
    have contributed many times over my share of $$$ to charity golf..but
    EVERY other tourney i've played in (especially the big $$ ones) they
    have had a large assortment of prizes for all different types of 
    little contests and raffles and the often..most folks walk away with a 
    little something or at least feeling good about the day...even if one
    didn't win anything it was enjoyable watching everyone running up for
    their prizes and the fun poked at everyone..even the cheapest of
    tournaments (the $40 types) even have an assortment of prizes that go
    up for prizes..
    
    what i noticed with the International last year was that if you weren't
    a damned good golfer you didn't have a prayer of winning anything..
    (no, i didn't expect to win anything..but a raffle would have been
    nice) and don't herd everyone in..give them a so-so buffet and give out
    the money prize and thats it...no clubs,no golf bags,balls,head covers,
    pitching nets,unbrellas...things like that that make you dropping your
    $150 not seem so bad...even if you don't go home with anything at least
    you see a bunch of stuff up there that keeps people coming back year
    after year hoping that his $150 and $10 raffle will let him go home
    with his little umbrella!...in my opinion...if the organizers of this
    tournament don't get some real prizes for your average joe to go home
    with (instead of just 4 money prizes) the average joe (who really makes
    a tournament) won't go a second time..i know our foursome won't be
    there this year...we've opted to attend a different charity tournament.
    
    yeah..the course is great..but playing stow 6 times for the same amount
    of money is great too!
