ith the Goodyear blimp floating over the U.S. Senior Open a mere mile away, the Third Annual SCBA Golf Tournament captured Sacramento’s golf fever on Friday, June 26, 2015. Despite the June heat, there were plenty of high spirits and low scores, as about 100 attorney golfers played at Haggin Oaks Golf Complex– three groups of golfers ending with a score of 60. SCBA goodie bags with hats, shirts, water bottles, and other sundries got rave reviews from attendees. After some great golfing, including a stop at the ever-popular Spirits Hole, cocktails and dinner were served. A silent auction and raffle were held. An added bonus this year was live music provided by Res Ipsa Loquitur (recently featured in the March/April issue of this publication), fronted by Robert (Bob) Bale of Dreyer Babich Buccola Wood Campora, LLP. A special guest appearance by Judge Kevin Culhane on the guitar, playing a few songs with Res Ipsa was mightily cheered by attendees. A short video of the day is up on the SCBA website, at sacbar. org, where you can see and hear a slice of the fun. Mark Velasquez, Golf Committee Co-Chair, extolled the virtues of the event: “It was simply the easiest way to promote civility, do some networking, promote law student outreach, all while playing golf with other members of the legal community.” Special thanks go to the Golf Committee Co-Chairs, Marc Velasquez and Executive Director Mary Burroughs, and to the SCBA staff for a fabulous event.
