Two bits of news and one housekeeping item.

1) Champions For Charity Long Drive Challenge
Just prior to the event we will have about a dozen baseball and football champions compete for their charity. Scheduled to appear are Vince Ferragamo (Rams QB), John 'Blue Moon' Odom (A's pitcher), Clyde Wright (Angels pitcher), Leroy Irvin (Rams DB), Rich Amaral (Mariners IF), Brent Mayne (Dodger C), Jeff Gardner (Padres IF), Reggie Doss (Rams DE) and others I can't mention yet.

2) Southland Golf Magazine article on LDGA event
The March issue of Southland Golf has a nice article on the LDGA. I've got a link on our website, check it out. Go to http://www.ldgatour.com/news.html and click on the link in the IN THE NEWS section.

Housekeeping
Head count
There is still plenty of open spots in the Costa Mesa Classic on March 25. I'd like to get a headcount of people who are planning to come but who have not yet sent in their registration.
Please call or bounce back an e-mail if you are planning to compete.

Thanks,
David

David,

Can you say which hole the event will take place on?  According to Google Earth, it looks like the driving range at Costa Mesa only goes out to around 300 yards.

The long drive contest will be held on the Mesa Linda course, hole #1. This hole is a 440 yard par 4 that plays into the prevailing wind. The hole is 45 yards wide. The grid will begin just inside the 150 marker and extend to 400 yards from the tee ground.

This is going to be a great event. Celebrity long drive challenge for charity, golf company exhibits, spectators, media and you guys.

See you in Costa Mesa.
Yours,
David
