HomeMy WebLinkAboutHuron Expositor, 2000-05-31, Page 15Seaforth I'd like to know where the stop button is on this new "irritation" system. Since the moment they delivered the pipe. it hasn't stopped raining for any real length of time. We wanted green - we're getting green. No roll but lots of green. Umhrells, rain suits. and rain covers seem to he the order of the day this spring. The rain is helpful in my other little enterprise promoting the sale of rain covers. Last week I was fortunate enough to visit the LPGA tournament in Dayton, Ohio. Many of the ladies on the tour use the Seaforth Rain cover and since I hadn't been out on.their tour for awhile, and since it was raining just as much in Ohio as it was in Huron County. the ladies and their caddies were very happy to sec me. They always marvel at how 1 can bring the rain along with me. I don't know if that's a good thing or a had thing but I tell them it's just very well-planned marketing! Sports THE HURON EXPOSITOR, May 31, 2000-15 rain cover hot item at LPGA tourney By Carolonne Doig Many of the ladies' events are only three-day tournaments so on Wednesday there was a pro am and another again on Thursday. The golfers were practicing diligently in high winds and scattered showers. It's not always sunshine and fun out there. When the winds really came up. the putting green cleared except for a fcw players and 1 had the opportunity to watch something that made me admire the ladies even more. Cindy Flom - who used to bc Cindy Rarick for all you golf fans. had just flown in from Arizona. She was dressed in normal clothes and street shoes. All she had with her was her clubs. Her caddy was driving the van, with all the other "life on the road" belongings. Cindy knew she was playing in the pro am the next day but she had just found out that she was first off the tee at 7:20 a.m. She wanted to get a little putting in. Kris Tschetter showed up a few minutes later and the two took advantage of the open putting green and the various holes on it. They challenged each other to a game of "Putter Back" and for the next hour I watched two well-known professional golfers have the time of their lives playing a simple game and practicing at the same time. It was great to watch and they both were happy to explain the game to me and encourage me to show other golfers how it's played. Cindy wasn't putting well at the beginning and Chris had her on the run, but the next morning Chris told me that they had ended up tied. I wasn't able to stay and watch the tournament on the weekend but the game must have been beneficial as Cindy Flom shot 67 the first day and had a very good finish in the tournament. I was also able to chat with A.J. Eathorne, who finished in the top five, Dawn Coe Jones, and Liz Farley - all Canadians doing well on the LPGA Tour. Driving home in the pouring rain on Thursday afternoon wasn't easy but it was gratifying to know that the ladies support the Seaforth product and it was great to bring home a new putting game to teach the golfers at our club. Recently at the Seaforth Golf Club the following things took place: - Alex Westerhout won the weekly draw. - The SOS Scramble Register for swimming lessons Saturda Seaforth will he hosting a Walk-A-Dog-A-Thon on Sunday.
