According to all reports, the 1st Annual Lincoln Football Golf Scramble held Saturday, June 22, was a success on all accounts.
Ten registered teams of three golfers, with an entry fee of $150, teed off at 8 a.m. at the Lincoln Golf Course.
Hosted by Lincoln Football, the tournament provided hole prizes, Grand Prizes for each flight, mulligans (do-overs) for sale, and lunch.

In the First Flight the team of Doris Cheney, Becky Cheney and Shelly Bennett took first place. The team of Chase, Collin and Klozenbucher took second place. The ladies won in a chip off.
Organizers give appreciation and credit to their sponsors for the event’s success, including the Bank of Tescott, Citizens State Bank, El Tres Mexican Restaurant, the Hembry family, Joe and Deb Ortiz, Kim and Lesa Klozenbucher, the Kobbeman family, Lincoln County Hospital, Lincoln Grocery, Marcelle Hamel, Mity Mart, Rena Shearer and family, VFW Post 7928, Viv’s Liquor and Wildlife Property Land Co.

“As a player, it was a lot of fun for a good cause,” Debora Smith said. “As a business (Mity Mart), I was happy to donate and would do so again!”
As the name suggests, the tournament will be held on an annual basis with all proceeds going toward Lincoln Leopard football.
