THE
RHINO INVITATIONAL GOLF TOURNAMENT

|
| Welcome to the official Rhino Invitational Golf Tournament Website!! Rhino XXXVIII is planned for Saturday, August 13, 2022 with tee times starting at 11 a.m. at Herndon Centennial Golf Course.As in prior years, the entry fee will be $100 and we will donate all remaining funds from the fees and other contributions to the Adrienne Wilson Liver Cancer Association. Over the past decade or so the Rhino has given over $25,000 to this worthy organization to assist in the battle against liver cancer, and we're hoping to make another sizeable contribution in Matt's honor this year. Continuing the pandemic-induced transition away from cash, we're going to use Venmo this year, although I can take checks/cash in a pinch. Please see your email invitation for specifics regarding payment details. Assuming pandemic conditions don't drastically change prior to the events, we're planning a full slate of in-person activities again this year, beginning with a Texas Hold 'Em tournament on Thursday night (likely at my house), an optional Friday practice round, a Friday evening dinner/drinks gathering at a bar/restaurant in Arlington, and the traditional post-round awards ceremony and food from Egg Karne at the course following the round on Saturday. As of now, though, all I need is your RSVP (and payment) for the Saturday round. We'll work out logistics for the practice round and poker closer to the events. As always, scores and awards are posted on the Statistics page and photos have been updated. Please forward any additional photos you would like to share to Cathy at andersoncathl@yahoo.com and/or share them with Charlie at rhino@ourskylight.com, which will make them pop up on the cool electronic picture frame David Forrest gave Charlie several years ago as a repository for Rhino memories.Thanks to everyone for supporting this event throughout the years. 2021 had a truly multi-generational feel, with four second-generation Rhinos joining us for poker on Thursday and six different parent-child combinations competing in the Rhino itself. Moreover, all three of Matt's sons were able to join us for golf in 2021, which was a real treat. Even though none of them really play golf, Chris, Connor, and Scott have been such good sports about this event over the years – recognizing that the important thing is not the golf but rather about maintaining and strengthening connections with friends and family. Your dad meant so much to so many of us, and it feels good to have a time and place every year to remember and appreciate that. Thanks to everyone for helping to keep the spirit of the Rhino very much alive. By the way, we are serious about Rhino 2024 (the 40th anniversary) taking place in St. Andrews, Scotland, on the Old Course. If you're interested, let Charlie and Jim Maloney know. We need to start planning later this year.
