GUESS WHAT …. The First Hole in One!! 

As a Charter Partner with the new NC State Lonnie Poole Golf Course, my 9-hole round made history….. my first hole-in-one; the course’s first hole-in-one.  

Saturday June 27, 2009; Playing partner Roxanne Hicklin, # 17 par 3  115 yards 9 iron….. the guys had just finished the hole and were watching our shots…. they might have been more excited than me…jumping up and down!   Witnesses included Ron Gilmore, Superintendent (red shirt), and Rob Yanovitch, Head Pro (striped shirt).  One of the guys took a picture including Roxanne….hope to have that one soon. 

The course opens to public mid-July; Grand Opening July 31 with Arnold Palmer!   The course is looking really good, greens are awesome…. Very interesting layout with 5 sets of tees.
