WANADA Open set for June 4 at Lansdowne Resort

The dealer associations annual golf tournament (WANADA Open) is returning this year to the incomparable Lansdowne Resort (Leesburg, VA,) Tuesday, June 4, 2013. Please join us for an action-packed day of camaraderie and competition.

If you dont play golf, plan to be on hand for cocktails and dinner that evening, or come to play tennis or spend a few hours at the spa! And if past is prologue, the business networking at the WANADA Open is second to none!

Again this year there are three (3) golf skill challenges administered by Albatross Golf Events:

The Lob Wall – Tests to see who can elevate the ball high enough to clear the lob wall

The Glass Blast – measures ball trajectory to see who can break a pane of glass from 20 yards away, and

The Money Putt – Pays $2,500 to whoever can sink a fifty foot putt with one try.

The WANADA Special Events Committee has also instituted some improvements for this years tournament to include the following:

No golf cart restrictions

60 years and older will play from the White Tees; 59 years and below will play the blue tees

Closest to the pin & longest drive prizes will be awarded for both Blue and White tee competitors

The WANADA Cup Competition will be open to all foursomes provided that each has a minimum of one dealer representative (each foursome will be designated Maryland or Virginia based on dealership location);

The winner of the WANADA Cup will be determined by totaling the scores of all VA foursomes and all MD foursomes, divided by their respective number of foursomes. The state with lowest average foursome score will win the title and the foursome with the lowest score on the winning state team will have their names added to the WANADA Cup plaque.

For tennis players, the Open Committee has arranged for a one-hour clinic with Lansdownes tennis professional and day-long open play. Registration for the clinic, lunch, cocktails and dinner is $125. Golf registration is $250 per golfer. Cocktails and dinner only is $100
