FORE! Don't miss the upcoming 1st Annual Scholarship Golf Tournament at Highland Golf Course, jointly hosted by the WEBPA and the West End BRC. Proceeds to go toward the Y2K Collegiate Scholarship Fund, awarded to deserving college-bound West End high school seniors.

Join us for a fun-filled day of golf, food, games & prizes and giving back to the community! We'll play an 18 hole, 4-person-scramble. (No need to worry if you're not an avid golfer.) Put your team together now -- it'll be here before you know it and we are limited to the first 64 players to sign up! You'll find a registration form on Page 6.

The tournament's success depends on the generosity of Hole-Sponsors and raffle / door prize donations. If your business would like to contribute to this excellent cause and get some extra publicity in the process, call Lynda Barry at 651-224-6707.

The West End Business & Professional Association, in conjunction with the Capital City Days Committee, proudly present the 1999 Capital City Days Parade & Festival.

Celebrity Grand Marshal to be announced.

The Festival will follow the parade on the Minnesota Brewery Grounds. Plenty of family FUN, food and entertainment will be available each of the two days, as well as live bands both evenings for the "big kids". A listing of activities, performers, and vendors will be available in Sept. issue of the Community Reporter Newspaper.
