One of the greatest nights in recent NGC history is in the books—truly one that will not be forgotten any time soon. Before we recap, we have some wholehearted thank yous to send out for all those that made our Night Golf event a great success.
First and foremost, thank you to all the NGC staff who gave us such a magical night. To Mary Ann, John, Christine, Chef Lois, Donnee, Basil, Jada, and everyone who works to make NGC what it is for all of us, we are so thankful. Fantastic food followed by great times had by all on the course is exactly what we all love about NGC.
A huge thank you goes to Leo Goff who’s idea, dedication, and hard work made Night Golf and the fellowship that ensued a reality. We salute you sir!
Additionally, thank you Chuck Roster who, along with Leo, made the logistics of lighting up the night happen! Thank you Chuck!
Night Golf Results
Glow balls lit up the night and the birdies were flying as 40 players took to the NGC Night Golf Course™ last night. With real-life shot-tracer-mode activated, both good and bad shots alike earned oos, ahs, and lots of laughs. The pond on #9 literally glowing became the 2nd best pond pond story of the night and a glow-stick skeleton roamed the fairways. Several teams reached deep into red figures but, when all the laser-shots had been struck, one team stood atop the leaderboard at -8 for the 9. With 2 eagles on #1 and #5 to go along with birdies on #3, #10, #12 and #18, the team of Carlo Ross, Travis Henderson, Lloyd Stimson, Mark Mattis, and Weston Happ earned the bragging rights for the 2022 Night Golf season. Cheers to all on a fantastic night!
All MGA participants for Night Golf have been awarded 25 Points Chase points.
We have reached a very special time…Night Golf Eve!

22 players came out on the 1st day of Fall for a Stableford showdown on the Front 9 and the elements corresponded with the change of season to a T (and a tee). When all the points had been counted, 2 men scored impressive 20 point tallies to share 1st place honors this week. Well played Jack Sullivan and Steve Naugle on the Men’s Night win! We’d also like to congratulate Patrick Escalambre on shooting his age on the Front 9 on his birthday, Happy Birthday sir!
