The 1st Annual Loose Goose Golf Classic was held at Tournament Players Club Valencia. A bagpiper started the morning's ceremonies and several contests and wine tasting at every Par 3 hole kept the tournament lighthearted and fun. The day finished in the club house with more wine tasting, awards, and a charity silent auction. Photos courtesy of Arnie Medel, Yoti Telio, and Sherri Carlton.
