Immaculate course conditions at Whitemarsh Valley provide a real treat for CB East Golfers!

Whitemarsh Valley Country Club proved to be a superb venue for this year's CB East Football Parents Club golf outing. And it's no secret why this prestigious golf course was once a regular stop on the PGA Tour as the former IVB Golf Classic. Manicured fairways and meticulous greens (guarded by strategically placed bunkers) are set within the rolling landscape of Whitemarsh Valley. It is truly a magnificent golf course and country club. And the service and staff are top-notch!




Forecast rain and thunder showers never came into play on Monday. But hazy skies, humidity and temperatures topping 90 degrees kept golfers reaching for cool refreshments on the course throughout the day. And golf carts were a very welcome way to enjoy the scenic vistas and move about the golf course during the entire afternoon!






After experiencing the scenic beauty and golfing splendor of Whitemarsh Valley, participants were treated to dinner and prizes -- topping off a wonderful day of fun and festivities.


The following slideshow set to music contains 170+ photo highlights of the day's activities, and runs just over 5 minutes. The slight pause about midway in the slideshow gives viewers a chance to walk back in time when famous pro golfers including Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus competed in the IVB Golf Classic during the 1960's and 1970's. Whitemarsh Valley Country Club, established in 1908, will celebrate it's 100th Anniversary in 2008.
