This tournament started in 1929 and has been played each year at Brookside.

Although early records are not definitive, at some point in the late 1960s or early 1970s the tournament format changed to mirror todays professional tournament format. Changes included 72 holes of medal play now conducted over four days on both of Brookside’s courses. The cut is made after 36 holes. Handicap divisions were also added about that same time and played over 36 holes.

In the early 1980s, John McGraw and Rob Moore were named tournament co-chairmen. Under their skillful leadership the number of entries increased dramatically each year, and now averages 250 players in the scratch division and 360 golfers in the handicap flights.

John McGraw is no longer with us and is greatly missed, but his memory and the high standards he set are the inspiration for all current committee members.
