Registration opens for Cutthroat Croquet Tournament fundraiser


    Registration is now underway for the Eighth Annual Cutthroat Croquet Tournament--a fundraiser for the Beaufort County Community College Foundation and Historic Bath State Historic Site.

    For the first time, the croquet tournament will be flighted. This will allow the more aggressive players to compete in the "Cutthroat" flight and the more gentle players to compete in the "Rapscallion" flight. Prizes will be awarded to the top four finishers in both flights.

Pictured above is Sam Louis Taylor, winner of the 2010 Cutthroat Croquet Tournament, as he makes his push toward victory in the final round. Tony Price, winner of the first tournament in 2003, tends the dead board.

    The tournament, held in conjunction with BathFest, will run from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on May 14 at Bonner Point in Bath. Most players will be finished by 2 p.m.

    The registration fee for the tournament is $35 for each player, which includes at least three rounds of croquet, a picnic lunch and beverages throughout the day. Spectators can enjoy lunch and watch the tournament for $15.

    Southern Bank and Trust Company, Rod Cantrell, CFP - Edward Jones Investments, Tankard Farms and the Tankard Family are corporate sponsors of the event.

    For more information, or to register, go to BCCC's Web site at www.beaufortccc.edu, or contact the BCCC Foundation office at 252-940-6218.
