Once again, the Midweek group was forced to postpone a planned tournament one week due to some unseasonably wet weather. But disappointment turned to joy because one week later 12 golfers (including one guest) were blessed with clear skies, a light breeze and 76 degree temperature. The Bingo-Bango-Bongo format seemed to be enjoyed by all since it gives every player a chance to win on every green. Haruo Makimoto and Bob Thomas both collected 18 BBB points and in stroke play, fine rounds were turned in by Roy Fukushima (net 65), Don Mar (66) and Marie Hart (67).
The course looked quite different on some holes due to standing water in places that are usually dry. #2 was shortened to 205 yards with the first 70 yards over water. The left side of #16 was a lake which widened near the green to completely submerge the bunker there turning it into a water hole. Otherwise, fairways and greens were in beautiful shape.
