FORE! Golfers wanted!
 |
| Welcome to Mirror Lake Golf Course and the fifth annual Fry Foundation Golf Tournament. I can bearly stand it, but I'll be your caddy today ... |
The tourney gets off to a shotgun start at Mirror Lake Golf Course, Bonners Ferry, at noon Friday, June 14, with check in at 11 a.m. Individual player fees are $50, team fees are $100, with the fee covering greens fees and dinner.
Cart fees are not covered; if you'd like to reserve one, call Mirror Lake, (208) 267-5314.
All proceeds from the golf tournament benefit the Fry Foundation's annual campaign in support of Boundary Community Hospital, providing funding for equipment and supplies to enable our small community hospital the ability to provide top-quality healthcare at home, and contributions are tax deductible.
Golf, purportedly invented in Scotland in the middle ages, is an activity euphemistically described as a sport, clearly designed to put participants in the hospital.
That's why each swing is known as a "stroke."
As this is a family friendly website, we can't publish what is perhaps the most profound and funniest exposition on the "sport" in the history of the game, as it necessarily contains language children shouldn't hear until they're about 87 ... or until they take up golf, whichever comes first.
If you're a grown adult unfazed by four-letter words, you can Google "Robin Williams golf."
If you've already taken up the game, click here and save yourself the frustration. WARNING! Adult language! Language that might give the more sensitive a stroke before you ever hit the green ... where you'll flail away with your crooked stick until you have a stroke or twelve.
Rest assured, though. The annual Fry Foundation Golf Tournament is all for fun, and you don't have to wear a kilt or plaid pants so loud they make your dog or your grandma howl in pain.
