2025 GENESEE BREWERY GOLF LEAGUE BANQUET AND AWARDS

Got it all done and put out after an hour of blood, sweat and tears.

A great venue...forever grateful to the Genesee Brew House, Carl and company.

COLD GENNY BEER AND LIGHT HERE!

NOW I NEED A BEER!!!

I think I lost a skins envelope.

Brother Gregg always with a smile for us. 1/2 of team "Fyfe & Drum"

 

Photographer brother Jeff is allowed to photo-bomb...

Loving Laurie...our "IN" to know what's going on at Durand

The pleasure is all ours...key player on team "Hoptical Illusion"

Thinking: "What or who did I forget?"

This can't be right...HI/LO Doubles champ! $$$$

A top stick every season. A hard act to follow!
The serious and the funny papers




Our master trophy flanked by the individual trophy awards.

We will never let him forget...Donny

Two of the good guys! Happy to have Sam ("Pin Seekers") back in the fold.

Robby, 1/2 of team "Bros. Grimm"

Tim, always looking to make my job easier....Thank YOU!

Mike, 1/2 of team "Hoptical Illusion"

Birdy's been with us & "Bros. Grimm" a long time! 

Bob is always working hard for team "Trouble Shooters"

Senior tees next year for Jim...1/2 of "Irish Rovers"

First time player and hopefully many more to come for Andy of "Golf Camping"

"Tim, you want HOW MUCH for your strong-arming the guys for cash?"

Always a lot to read and digest in the final stat sheet and newsletter.

I think we've waited long enough. Those hot wings are calling me!

Wheels was instrumental in keeping the guys and gals well hydrated with Genny, for which I am very thankful!

Always a smile from Dave "Wheels"...1/2 of the "Irish Rovers".

Planning strategy for next season or looking for mistakes...who knows?

"Seriously, what am I doing wrong?" bent elbow, tee too low, focus???



First timer Rick didn't know what a real golf league was like. 1/2 of  'Patriot Pounders"

" I'm going to eat with you and if you try to stop me I'm going to CLUB YOUR FACE!...OK?".

"The Library" where all is quiet until the food arrives.



Planning 2026 strategy

Yeah, we got there quick! I found out where Gary hides his flask.

Always a lot to digest in the newsletter where everyone gets poked.



Terry and Andy..."Golf Camping" duo.


He asked to team up with the guy with the club...Team name "Clockwork Orange"

Mike, an integral part of the Genesee Golf League...keeping my budget reasonable and the restless natives well hydrated! Thank You!

"No, he's not angry, upset or on-tilt, that's his normal happy face smile. (see below)

We're all pointing the finger at my partner of 27 years Mike...1/2 of "Shag Baggers".

"I don't think he has room for that team name in the newsletter or next year's trophy..."Float Like A Butterfly / Sting Like A Bee"

Mike and Jim...two funguys!

I'm so happy tonight I don't have to golf with you know who. Reed 1/2 of "Pair of Aces".

The Library

Yeah, my ears hurt!

Infectious positive personality, attitude and smile. 



Mark, always a pleasure...1/2 of team "Trouble Shooters".

Dave is truly missing the other half of team "Hard Candy" Tim

♫♪Look at me, I am old but I'm happy. I was once like you are now and I know it's not easy. But take your time, think a lot. Think of everything you've got. For you will still be here tomorrow holding on to those dreams♪♫

She said YES! to joining the Genny League next year!

Cousins Dave and Brian

Son Brian...1/2 of team "Fyfe & Drum"

"Sliding" very easily into our mouth...Yummy

Our Spread...Thank you Carl and company!

Always room for Jenny...

Let the feast begin! What!?...NO Dessert!

Lots of cold Genny Beer and Light to wet our whistles.


I'll break your face if you take another picture!

Cameraman Jeff who's in everyone's face! Thumbs UP!

Awards Presentation: MIP - Alan,  MVP - Paul,  HI/LO Doubles -Tim & Gregg,  Champs -Rick & Tim, Skins Insurance Plan - Wheels,  Putting Up With The Guys - Laurie,  Photo Journalist - Jeff



Wergins Rule!

Thankfully he didn't see the cameraman!

Yeah, I've made money by opening a can of beer with my nose!

Cheers to another great season at Durand and the Genesee Brewery Golf League


How can you not love this guy? Award for the most lost balls in a season.



Danny Lange's award for: "You Have To Have Pretty Big Balls To Play The Way You Do"
Missing and missed Danny and Don of team "The 2 Puttz"

Always my highlight of our banquet. Tim's hand made thank you card and the generous donations enclosed. Thank You All Very Much! 

Disneyland here I come!


No, I'm not twisting my son's arm. He's grabbing name #2 to pick a prize from the booty outside.

More 'name calling" for prizes.

No Laurie! No more poker chip name picking...the last one looked like a cheese quesadilla!




Looks like Robby is planning something evil on me!

If I didn't know better it looks like he's going for the hose.

Alan, one of our league benefactors. 

Lucky first name picked Brian got the best-of-the-bunch cooler gift.

Brian, I think Tim wanted that cooler. How could you resist that face?

There goes wheeled cooler #2...well done Terry

I'm looking for a cooler and all you have is ice buckets left!!??



That's a first for me too Robby. Thick hard wooden bar mats. I guess that's how it's done in Costa Rica. Could be a home defense weapon!

Shhhh, he's not looking...take another picture...

I don't need any more junk. I'm downsizing. But I will refill my glass!

A vintage 12 Horse Ale mirror going to an appreciative home.

The goat!

If I offered Genny slippers he'd be wearing them too!

Please! PAPARAZZI GO HOME!

Amazing! Now I've got a pair of BIG DEAL stools, one year later!

I can walk on water too!

Alright, I'll let you go this time but no more pics!

The swag is my favorite part of the evening

I was hoping you'd fill this bad-boy up with Titleists

Coming back for seconds?...Oh, that was only the grub!?

This is like work! I am needing another slider.



He makes my job easier...Thanks Tim!

I'm not a golfer but I do know about being in the right place at the right time!

Hey, Gary raided my pick up for Genny beer last picnic...turn about is fair play!

Hmmm, maybe my game will improve if I use this mini, half-height putter?
