Creepy Crawlers Invade Golf Course

Monday June 29^th the Whitepath golf course was again invaded by the infamous Creepy Crawlers in their quarterly Scramble. Normally, the golfers play a “much” modified Stableford match each Monday and Thursday. Teams are picked, at random, while players are on the course and cash prizes are awarded to the 1^st, 2^nd & 3^rd place teams. In addition cash prizes are given to closest to the pin on three of the four par 3 holes. There are usually 45 to 55 players on any given Monday & Thursday. About once a quarter the Crawlers meet for a best ball scramble. Today sixty one golfers played in the scramble. Players were teamed in foursomes based on their handicap (very loosely defined). Each team had an A, B, C & D player. Again the three top teams and closest to the pins received cash prizes.

The 1^st place team (from left to right in the picture) was Jim Berman, T.J. Thompson, Ron Hartness and Matt Kwrzawa.

The 2^nd place team (from left to right in the picture) was Chuck Gregory, Jack Smith, Ted Koerner & Roy Hartsfield.

The 3^rd place team was (from left to right in the picture) was Alan Keller, Allan Ward, Larry Nitz and Dave Bicker (not pictured).

The Creepy Crawlers is an organization of golf lovers that is open to anyone who wishes to join. It is for golfers that can play fairly consistently and don’t mind playing with different golfers each time out. Skill level doesn’t matter as teams are picked at random each time out. You do need to play three times in order to get your handicap (very loose definition). From then on out it is how many strokes you go above or below your base that counts.

The Creepy Crawlers tee off each Monday & Thursday at 9:00 a.m. but you need to be at the course and checked in before 8:30 a.m. Late arrivals cannot participate as foursome and hole assignments are made between 8:30 a.m. and 9:00 a.m.
