We had over 50 players and guests join us at The Stoneyard in Greenville on Saturday for the 2014 FCGT Honors. With great food, drinks, friends, and giveaways, the night was a success!

Five golfers played each and every tournament this past season and for their dedication we held a drawing with the winner getting FREE entry into all 2015 FCGT tournaments.
