Home builders unite to play a hole … or two

Would you like to increase your potential customer base by 3,000 or more?

Join our Home Builders’ of Mississippi, HBAM-Natchez for our first and hopefully annual golf tournament this Thursday. You’ll see world class golf at its best.

Sign-in and welcome is from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. We’ll have a brown bag lunch for up to 100 players. There will be lots of fun, libations, prizes, cash money and four holes-in-one awaiting you. There is a $10,000 cash prize for three holes and possibly four $5,000 golf carts for the hole-in-one team. The top team wins $500 in cash; the second place team wins $300 in cash and the third place team wins $200. A high score wins $100 in cash with free lessons.

As president of our local Home Builders’ Association for 2009, it is my pleasure to personally invite you to help support this event by sponsoring a four-man team, sponsoring a green, tee box or just coming and playing yourself, or maybe just come to our 19th hole awards. Heavy hors d’oeuvres, cash bar and entertainment await you.

We’ll invite dignitaries and special guests to speak. Who knows, maybe we’ll see Ray Guy, Phil Bryant, Jake Middleton or Henry Watts.

Lt. Gov. Phil Bryant has already committed to speak at the November 2009 meeting.

The competition is going to be fierce. Mary Milstead and Gene Buckles from our state office are coming and bringing two other top notch pros. Marty personally stated that his team will kick butt.

The Home Builders’ Association is a driving force in the recovery of our economy. We need everyone’s support — members and non-members.

Be proactive; we hope to see you there.

For further information, call 601-431-1797 or call Pat Powell at 601-442-1494.

Dick Thompson is the 2009 president of the Natchez Home Builders.
