Wrestlers ‘Golf Outing’ slated again in Minneota

The inaugural Minneota Wrestling Association Golf Outing was such a success last spring that they are bringing it back for an encore. The second annual Friends, Family and Alumni of Minneota Wrestling Best-Ball Outing will be held on Saturday, June 16 at Countryside Golf Club.

Registration will be from 10-10:30 a.m. with teams beginning to golf at 11 a.m. “This is open to anyone, not just those involved in wrestling,” said Tony Esping of the Minneota Wrestling Association.

“And if someone doesn't have a team, we encourage them to sign up and we pair them up with teams that may need another golfer.” The cost is $25 per person which includes a round of golf, use of a cart and dinner in the clubhouse.

For non-golfers, the cost is $10 for the meal. "We will be serving walking tacos until 3 p.m. and then after that we will have our normal menu that we serve daily at the clubhouse," said Countryside Manager Barbie Thomsen.

"We will be serving walking tacos until 3 p.m. and then after that we will have our normal menu that we serve daily at the clubhouse. Teams for the best-ball format can consist of men, women or co-ed."

“We are giving prizes for closest to the pin, longest drive, and longest putt made,” said Esping.

“And local businesses have donated items for door prizes to give out.”

There were 16 teams and 66 golfers of all ages that participated last year, including one team with six members.

Last year's golf outing was designed to commemorate 50 years of Minneota wrestling.

“We had a very good turnout last year for the golf outing,” said Esping. “So we decided to have it again this year.”
