The Golfing Grads of USMA
22nd Annual Reunion & Golf Tournament
The Marriott Legends at Capitol Hill
The Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at Capitol Hill
Prattville, Alabama
April 8 – 11, 2010
January, 2010
We have decided to return to the Marriott hotel and the Robert Trent Jones golf courses in Prattville, Alabama (located a few miles northwest of Montgomery). The hotel and golf courses are first class and, over the past two years, the staffs have been outstanding in their support of the Golfing Grads.
The basic three-day package is for the evenings of April 8 – 11. Additional night packages (accommodations and breakfasts) are available for periods either before or after the basic package dates.
Last year we were fortunate to have Bob Anderson, USMA Class of 1960, to speak. Bob was a two-time, first team All American as a running back and led Army in rushing during each of his three varsity seasons (1957-1959). He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2004. Bob has asked to return this year and speak about his legendary coach, Colonel Earl Blaik.
We have enacted three changes for 2010 – (1) Scoring will be done by the staff at the golf courses with the help of some of us, (2) The Four Man Scramble will be played on the hardest course while the Individual competition will be played on the easiest, and (3) Our “goodie bag” will be limited to one or two items, thereby reducing the per person costs.
The hotel will again allow us to use the Presidential Cottage as our hospitality suite. Practice rounds will be available but you will have to contact the RTJ Pro, arrange your own times and foursomes, and guarantee payment. The individual competition on Saturday will again be conducted by flights (based on handicaps). As usual, several of the participating classes will help share in running this event. Our thanks to them.
We have made reservations for 160 golfers. We hope to see you in April…

This three-day golf tournament will have team (USMA class) and individual competitions played on three quality courses – “The Judge”, which plays along the banks of the Alabama River, includes an island green, and has water on 12 holes, “The Legislator”, which combines 12 holes in and out of pines and 6 holes through a cypress swamp, and “The Senator”, a links style course which is host to the LPGA Navistar Classic. Each is very fun and challenging in its own way!
