Willowbrook

Game Eight of the 1999 season was played by most people at Willowbrook on July 31^st.

The Course

Willowbrook was in remarkable condition, given the general drought conditions this summer. The fairways were well-watered and the greens, while not perfect, were quite adequate for the most part.

The major drawback was no fault of the course: it was the weather. On one of the hottest days of the year, we played a round of golf. Center Square was hot, but Willowbrook was even hotter!
