I had the opportunity to work a shift at the Patriot Million Dollar Hole in One on Monday. This fundraiser brings money directly into the community, which goes to scholarships for University of Texas at Tyler students. Anyone who has ever received a scholarship at UTT likely was a benefactor of this fantastic event.
Though the winds were high and the sun was hot on Monday, a few undeterred golfers showed up, eager to show their support. Basically, balls cost $1 each, and there is no limit to the number of balls golfers can purchase. Players coming closest to the hole are qualified to compete in the final round on Sunday at the Cascades, where a hole in one can win $1,000,000.

I had a great experience at Jessica’s. My massage was the best I’ve ever had. I usually leave a massage so tense that I need another massage…not so...
