Fall mixer set

Bella Vista Village's Annual Fall Mixer, a three-day couples' tournament, is scheduled for Oct. 8-10 at the Kingswood and Berksdale courses. The tournament, which is open to members and their guests, is a modified Scotch format. Spouses are not required to play together.

Entry fees for the following groups are: AGGF teams pay $100, Value Card teams pay $135, member teams pay $143, and guest teams pay $161. Entry fees include tournament golf, tee favors, flight prizes, pin contests, range balls and soft drinks on the course.

Additionally, six to 10 couples will play a six-hole alternate shot/alternate tee shoot-out event where the objective is to be the last group standing. Couples will be eliminated during the play of the six holes with the high score or scores on each hole.

A team scramble will be available for those seeking a more relaxed event. During this event, three to four couples will be paired together to play nine holes of alternate shot/alternate tee scramble.

Players participating in the shootout or team scramble will be required to pay a separate entry fee of $30 a team (member or guest), which includes a picnic at Riordan Hall following play. Picnic reservations are required. No refunds will be given.

The tournament is limited to the first 120 paid couples. The registration deadline was Friday, Oct. 2.
