Arthur E. Rousse Family |
Six guys. A friendly match to establish family "bragging rights" on a local patch of grass -
Ed Rousse, Joe Rousse, Phil Rousse, Leon Rousse, Jim Toler, and Gardner Walker.
That was 1963 ...
Thus began the Arther E. Rousse Family Tourney, which continues to grow
as our family does.
The tournament today consists of two 18-hole rounds, held annually
in September. In order to compete, players must either be a direct descendent of Arther Rousse,
married to a direct descendent, or have been determined to be honorary family by
the Board of Rulers. After the 1st round, the family gathers for a picnic and reunion.
The Champ chooses the venue for the following year, and hosts the picnic.
