Congratulations to this year’s Bent Tree Men’s Club Champion. Cooper has earned a place in Bent Tree history by winning the championship flight (gross score from the blue tees) at the age of 13! Recognition is also due to the third place winner of the championship flight…Ron has now played in the championship for 40 consecutive years (and holds the Bent Tree record for the most championship wins).

Original post date: July 2, 2012 There will be a lot of guests in Bent Tree this week, including the kids participating in Youth Week activities. During the heat wave, take tips from the animals on staying cool:

Fall Weather
Yesterday seemed like the perfect first-day-of-fall. A little bit chilly in the morning, and some warm sunshine in the afternoon. The turtles were soaking up the sun.

14th Victory
Congratulations to the winner of the men’s 2020 Bent Tree Golf Club Championship this weekend. This was the 14th time he has won…amazing! I think 1984 was the first year he took home the trophy.
