Cats won’t play in heavy rain
Published October 30, 2009
Golfers might want to keep their clubs indoors and dry today with the threat of some major thunderstorms in the area. The Rotary Club of Angleton is sure rain is on its way, and announced Thursday it was postponing its annual tournament.
The three-club Divots for Cats tournament was originally scheduled to tee off today at the Austin Bayou course in Danbury, but has been postponed, club president elect Jason Chavez said in an e-mailed statement.
The tournament will be rescheduled for “sometime in the spring.” All registration checks will be returned to teams already signed up, and the club will let golfers know the new tournament date when it is determined.
