SHAWNEE, Okla. — The 30th annual FireLake Classic golf tournament took place July 26-27 at FireLake Golf Course. More than 70 Shawnee and Tecumseh residents played in this year’s event. The tournament consisted of six divisions and is a great opportunity for any skill level to join in on the fun.
“The event was a great success,” said Chris Chesser, FireLake Golf Course Manager. “The event is always really fun to watch and be a part of. Superintendent Derron Day and his crew had the greens looking great and the event would not have been such a success without all of their wonderful help.”
