Randy Bohac, who served again this year as the chairperson for the Classic said, "We had a great turnout once again this year and I am excited that 30 of those teams were back from last year." Randy went on to say that he had golfers from 7 states playing in this year's event. He thanked everyone for playing and urged all golfers to keep the pace going to try and avoid the rain storms that threatened all weekend. He thanked all of his helpers and gave thanks to Jeremy Williams and his crew for having the course in such fine condition.

Flag prizes were handed out at the completion of play with 9 flag prizes offered both days of play. A skins game and day money were also award to the respective winners and all golfers enjoyed a Saturday night meal at the Windbreak Restaurant. Four Winds Pro, Chad Wise, and his staff, made sure everything went smoothly and that all golfers and the fans who turned out to watch were all taken care of. Despite the damp weather conditions, golfers were treated to cooler weather, which they enjoyed, and this year's event was termed a success, once again.
