NMASLA Summer Golf Outing
On August 30, members of NMASLA gathered at TOPGOLF in Albuquerque for its annual Golf Tournament, although this year there were no carts, no tee times, and scores were tabulated by computer. Teams of up to six players were able to drive their ball out into a field with numerous large 'holes' with varying scores, as well as the hope to make that Hole in One. The mood was upbeat, and the crowd seemed to really enjoy themselves, even those who hadn't picked up a golf club in decades, or ever before. From the comments heard from the participants, the food and beverages were great. Hats off to Arturo Merino for pulling this all together!
But an event like this couldn't have taken place without our sponsors, who we would like to thank one more time.
