Ken Bard Cup |
| 13th
Annual MVGCSA Shoot at Pike Run and Ken Bard Cup |
|
This year the 13th annual Shoot at Pike
Run and monthly Mountain & Valley Golf Course Superintendents
association meeting, hosted by Rick Kanuch, provided warm
weather conditions with overcast skies. Rain was occurring all over
western PA but somehow we were lucky enough to avoid the worst of it. Approximately 30
shooters competed for the coveted Ken Bard Cup, which was named
after the long time turf equipment salesman for Krigger & Company. Ken
was a long time friend of Rick Kanuch and he was the salesman who called
on many of the members of the MVGCSA. |
