The PebbleCreek Lady Niners’ annual Invitational Tournament, this year themed Breakfast at Tiffany’s, was held on February 10. The Invitational is one of the largest annual events and this year had 200 players including 80 guest players from other golf clubs in the area. A total of 10 guest clubs were represented at this year’s event.
The Breakfast at Tiffany’s theme was carried out through all aspects of the event. Players were greeted by the PCL9GA Event Committee members with their pearls and tiaras; were treated to special group photos with Audrey Hepburn and enjoyed the beautifully decorated ballroom. Each player received a special Tiffany’s gift box with pearls and custom Tiffany’s themed ball marker pendants.
There was even a special raffle for an authentic Tiffany’s bracelet, won by PCL9GA club member Cheryle Pike and a luxuries wine and chocolate gift basket donated by AAA Maintenance won by PCL9GA Jeannie Sherlock.
The event closed with performance awards, presentation of raffle basket winners and special dessert of chocolate Tiffany designed cupcakes. The event was a great success thanks to the wonderful committee chairmen and committee members.
