| Thanks
to all for making the GBO 2004 a wonderful success! Our
little 8 year old GBO is slowing becoming a mature event
and is beginning to attract big time sponsors, a sell
out crowd of entertaining golfers, great prizes, fun stories,
and best of all; we are really making a difference for
the UW Children's Hospital and Bucky Badger student mascots.
We donated $10,000 this year, up from $5000 last year,
which continues our trend of doubling our annual donation
for the last 4 consecutive years. I guess that makes 2005's
goal $20k. D'Oh! (We will do it.) Thanks again to our
generous sponsors…please
support them so they continue to support us! |

On
Friday we had a great visit to the UWCH with our
annual toy donation trip with Bucky, the football
players, local press, and GBO staff. The smiles
on these kids faces are truly priceless and parents
and patients really do appreciate the gifts people
donate…special thanks to Bill Sinacore from
LeapFrog and Jill Woods from Disney for making significant
toy contributions once again. |
|
| In
the spirit of working hard AND playing hard, Friday night
we continued the GBO weekend with our annual trip to the
Essen Haus for a little polka dancing, a few boots of
beer and plenty of bratwursts. |
| Saturday's
UW football game was a thing of beauty…the
newly renovated Camp Randall is awesome, the weather
was perfect and the Badger football squad put on
a good show by thumping Penn State. Thanks to the
Stadium Bar for providing pre & post game GBO
designated areas for us to celebrate…check
out our new GBO banner thanks to Signature Graphics!

Sunday's
GBO was so much fun! Bergstrom donated an H2 Hummer
giveaway for a hole in one prize…unfortunately
none of us sank it but it was definitely fun trying. |
|
|
All 6 of the current Buckys were in attendance,
the UW tuba section walked the course, there were
great prizes and raffle items, and an entertaining
group of GBO gophers. |

Congratulations
to this year's winning foursome of Nick McDonough,
Guy Holmes, Rob Peters and Dirk Todd who shot an
impressive 14 under. They now have their names inscribed
on the GBO BUCKY BOWL traveling trophy for them
to enjoy this year. |
|
| |
| This
year we started a Super Sponsor traveling trophy going
to the biggest cash contributor of the GBO and this year's
recipient was Racine
Danish Kringle…not sure if you ever tasted their
kringle but it is dangerously addicting. Thanks again
to all sponsors! |
