NAUGHTY HILL NEWS!! We all love to complain about the one hill on the course - Naughty Hill! You know, that little jaunt from Belvin up to Burleson that makes you feel like you might roll back down if you don't keep your momentum up?! Yeah, we know!

This year, we have a sponsor who is giving some fun prizes - randomly! Thank you to Therapy Nexus for bringing some added delight to a challenging spot on the course!
