ODESSA, TEXAS—It was a beautiful Monday, the 8th of April, the day of the solar eclipse, when the membership of the Permian Basin Petroleum Association took over the Links Course and the Old Course at the magnificent Odessa Country Club and once again participated in the grand tradition that is PBPA’s Spring Swing Golf Tournament. The rumor that PBPA has an arrangement with God that the weather always be bright and fair is only that—a rumor—but the day turned out pretty nonetheless.
This year’s Spring Swing began with an 11 a.m. registration and lunch, followed by a 1 p.m. shotgun start. The day concluded with a 5 p.m. closing reception and awards presentation.
This four-man scramble brings food, fun, and fellowship to all who attend. PBPA’s leaders voiced their appreciation, saying “Thank you to everyone who joined us! We hope you enjoyed a day on the course and that relationships were developed or strengthened.”
Special thanks, too, go out to all event sponsors, cookers, and volunteers who made the event possible. For the full complement of event photos, go to PBPA’s Facebook Page.
