Baseball, Hot Dogs, and Cotton Candy!

Today was just another typical day on the course! Started out my morning with coolers/fruit/ice/water duty with Jake and then spent a couple of hours hanging out on holes 7, 8, and 9 rules officiating. The real fun of day came just after we got off the course.

The Assistant Tournament Director, Freyman, and I were heading up the Care for the Course Party and Social Activity this week - which was a water balloon 'toss.' I had to quickly fill up about 100 water balloons and lets just say that the water balloons started their own war against me...and they won! haha

After getting completely soaked, I headed up the range where we had about 10 juniors or so ready to help out and then have a little fun! We put out grass seed and sand on the driving range for a bit as part of our Care for the Course initiative. After that was over, it was time for some fun with water! It all started out nice and calm with a couple games of water balloon toss, but it quickly escalated to a water balloon fight....but as long as the juniors had fun....then it was a-ok!

After the fun was over, we helped the boys finish breaking down the course and prepping the coolers/other materials for tomorrow. It amazes me at how fast we have gotten at these tasks! We were out the door about 4 again today...with plenty of time to go get ready for the evening! I headed back to my host family and enjoyed a really nice dinner with them before heading out to the feature activity of the week - a Stormchasers Baseball game (they are the AAA affiliate for the KC Royals)! We sat in the outfield for the game and enjoyed some typical ballpark food before the girls called it an early night! Definitely time to get some sleep and get ready for tomorrow! Hard to believe that tomorrow is our last day at Quarry Oaks...time sure is flying by!!!

Night from NE!
