Senior Friendship Tour Update

Important and exciting information came my way after the T-Line went out a couple weeks ago. The news was that Schenectady had the honor of winning against the Canadians. This was the Canadians first lost since they had been on the tour. The Schenectady team that won was made up of Dorothy Szymaszek, MJ Miller, Ursula Hilborn and Anne Hartranft. Great Game Ladies!
