GUERNSEY – The inaugural Platte County Chamber golf tournament was held at Trail Ruts in Guernsey. According to Platte County Chamber president, Shawna Reichert, moving forward, she wants to showcase a different course each year.
“It went great for this first year,” Reichert said. “We had a good turnout, our sponsors came through, like amazing.”
There were 20 teams that participated in this year’s event which Reichert said was great for a first year getting it off the ground. As for the challenges of getting an event like this started, Reichert had no previous template to work with. Previously the Chamber fundraiser was a casino night run by a Colorado organization. In trying to remain local and frugal, the Chamber decided to have the event run by people of the Platte County communities.
“It was just learning how to do it was the main obstacle,” Reichert said. “I just want to thank the Frederick family for coming through and helping me with everything.”
The Fredrick family hosts the Frederick Memorial Golf Tournament each year in August at Trail Ruts and this year had their 25th annual tournament which allowed them to share the insights, experience and wisdom to make the inaugural event for the Chamber a success.
Reichert would also like to thank her sponsors which included First State Bank, Platte Valley Bank, Laramie Peak Motors and PC Consulting.
