The 2013 Texian Golf Classic was
held on Monday, September 9 at the Sweetwater Country Club in Sugar Land. The
tournament kicked off at 8:30 a.m. with a shotgun start. Participants were all
smiles as they made their way out onto the course to enjoy friendly
competition.
Claire Rogers,
Interim Executive Director for Fort Bend County Museum Association said, “An
event like the Golf Classic is only a success when it has the support of the
community. We would like to thank Severn Trent and WCA Waste Management for
their financial support, and we want to thank all of those local businesses
that provided items for the silent auction and the golfers’ goody bags. Most of
all we want to express our appreciation to the golfers who came out to play! It
was a wonderful day with good weather and a great crowd!”
As the tournament
concluded, participants made their way back to the club house for a buffet-style
lunch and awards. The team for McDonald & Wessendorff Insurance/WJ
Interests, LLC, which included Jared Jameson, Dan McDonald, and Tommy Mouch
achieved first place with a gross score of 57; Team Ventana Development, which
included Jim Grover, Paul Grover, Jeff Haley, and Stephen Ray, achieved first
place net with a score of 61. Dan McDonald was the winner for “closest to the
pin” on hole #14, while Jeff Haley won the “longest drive” on hole #6.
Congratulations to all of the winners!
The Fort Bend
County Museum Association was also very pleased to acknowledge County Judge Bob
Hebert and County Commissioners Richard Morrison, Grady Prestage, Andy Meyers,

Lindsay Lucas,
Director of Development for Fort Bend County Museum Association said, “In the
current challenging climate for non-profit organizations, we are so thankful
for our generous sponsors, teams and individual players who helped make the
