The Ken Helling Golf Scramble was held on Saturday, May 4, at the Kimball Golf Course benefiting the Kimball-Eden Valley-Watkins Girls and Boys Golf team. Although it 
was an unseasonably cold day, teams came out and enjoyed a round of golf, ate a great meal, and won fabulous prizes. This year’s champions, The Nuts with Jason Huschle, Butch Stang, Dan Stang, and Tyler Stang, shot 5 under par to edge out the competition. The Kimball-Eden Valley-Watkins girls’ and boys’ golf team would like to thank our hole and individual sponsors, the businesses who donated door prizes, and Kimball Golf Club for supporting the golf teams and making the 2013 Ken Helling Golf Scramble a huge success.
