First
Golf Tournament of 2003
We
have reopened the tournament season at the prestigious
Valle del Sol Golf Course with the Lexmark - Cuscatlan
Bank Tournament. This tournament which was opened
to the public was attended by 115 registered players
on Friday January 24th from 8:30am to 1:30pm. Promoted
at an attractive rate of $80.00 per person each attendee
received tournament participation rights, use of a
golf cart, a caddie, golf balls, breakfast, lunch,
unlimited beverages, a T-shirt and awards. Thanks
to the active participation of distinguished sponsors
and co-sponsors, not only were there great prizes
and trophies for the winners, but a great atmosphere
could be felt throughout the course with kiosks for
tastings and exhibitions of various products. The
first place winner was Mr. Jorge Miranda, who with
a 30 handicap reached the net score of 63 in 93 hits,
took home 2 tickets to any part of the world via Continental
Airlines! Other prizes for the rest of the winners
included a one week stay at Cala Luna Hotel in Playa
Tamarindo - vehicle included, a cell phone and Lexmark
printers. Furthermore, the winner of the "Hole
in One" contest, which was carried during the
tournament, would take home a beautiful new grey 607
Peugeot parked on the 13th Hole. At the end of the
tournament the 10 best players were able to test their
luck with a second shorter range shot on Hole 3. Even
though no one took home the prize, some of the players
came very close as it can be observed in the accompanying
photographs. Without a doubt the event was exciting
and satisfying as much for players and sponsors as
it was for the organizers and it concluded with a
feeling of happiness in the participants on a sunny
summer afternoon at Valle de Sol Golf Course.
