Putt-Putt 2008 People's Choice Award

The votes are in and the trophy is on display. Let's hear it for the Marengo Fire Department!

They collected over 20% of all votes cast. That's quite an accomplishment. And they've assured me they're going to be bigger and better next year, so let that be a challenge to all our participants.

Congrats to the winners:

1st Place: Marengo Fire Protection District

2nd Place: Westlake Community Church

3rd Place: Cambridge Dental

The 2008 Putt-Putt Challenge is history!

What a glorious day we had for Putt-Putt. It rained, but not until the crowds had slowed to a trickle and everyone had golfed their fill. And when the rain came, it didn't stay long. So, all in all, the day was a definite success.

Countdown to Putt-Putt: THREE DAYS

It's almost here...the 2008 Putt-Putt Challenge!

The weather gods are smiling upon us, with promises of 84 and sunny.

The fun begins at 11am, as our 22-hole golf course opens for your putting pleasure at only $2 a ball (which you get to keep). There will be surprise giveaways, and food at our special food court and tent set up in the municipal parking lot behind Brandt's Pharmacy, in addition to our established and popular State Street restaurants.

The registration desk will close at 6pm, but the course will remain open until 7:00.

We'll close the night with a raffle at 7pm, featuring such prizes as a girl's mountain bike, WEBKINZ, Tastefully Simple goodie boxes, and much more. You get a free raffle ticket with your golf ball, and you don't have to be at the raffle to claim your prize. We'll let you know if you're one of the lucky winners.

Our entrants are working hard (and in secret) to make this year's course even better than last year. After all, there is a trophy and untold glory ready to be bestowed upon the winner of the "Best Hole" contest judged by YOU, our Putt-Putt Challenge participants.

We look forward to seeing you there!
