The Young Urban Gorillas, a team consisting of Mel Gitlin, Roger Poe and Jerry Weston, took low gross honors in the second-annual Dodie Blessings Golf Tourney at Coos Country Club last weekend.
The event was the second of three Dodie Blessings tournaments this summer aimed at raising money for the Veterans Hospice and Special Programs funds at the Oregon VA hospital in Roseburg. The final event is at Bandon Crossings on Sunday, Sept. 7.
The Young Urban Gorillas had a score of 63 during the tournament, which was played in a scramble format.
John’s Custom Fabrications, which included Teresa Asper, Marilyn Wilson, Joe Miller and Kathy Mosieur, took low-net honors with a score of 49.
Gitlin, who organized the event, issued thanks to several people for their help at the tournament.
Gitlin recognized Bill Johnson, the honorary starter, who served the country in the United States Navy; Weston, a Vietnam veteran and purple heart recipient, who drove over from Roseburg to support the cause; Poe, who is participating in all three tournaments; and John Paullus, who served in the Marine Corps and owns John’s Custom Fabrications. Though Paullus had a prior commitment and could not participate in the event, he sent a team to take part.
People interested in taking part in the final tournament can contact Gitlin by phone at 751-1081 or by e-mail at mgitlin@verizon.net.
