Birdwell for volunteer of year

Letters to the Editor

I would like to nominate Jerry Birdwell for 2013 Volunteer of the Year. Jerry has stepped up far beyond the call of duty to help keep the Banks Lake Golf Course open for the community this past year.

Day after day, as the golfers hit the course, Jerry was at the course with his own truck, his own chain saw, his own tools working on the sprinklers system. Some times you could see Jerry’s truck, and finally you would see Jerry’s head pop out of the hole he had dug to find and repair a leak in the system.

Right after the several wind storms, Jerry was one of the first out with his chainsaw to clean up the course.

This volunteer is one of those people that the general citizens do not see every day volunteering but has spent hours and hours and his own money and time for the good of the Banks Lake Golf Course and community.

Hats off to Jerry, and we the golfers are asking for your vote for Jerry.
