Saturday June 30th the Pagosa Springs Rotary Club held their 1st Rotary Golf Ball Drop at 1:30pm. The Golf Ball Drop was held concurrently with the Rotary Chuck Dorman Memorial Golf Tournament at the Pagosa Springs Golf Club.
So, what is a Golf Ball Drop?
A Golf Ball Drop is a raffle where golf balls, not tickets, are purchased. The winner is chosen by dropping the balls from a net raised high in the air by a crane. Whichever ball goes in the hole is the winner. If no balls are lucky enough to land in the hole, the winner is determined by which landed closest to the hole.

The first Rotary Club in the world was organized in Chicago, Illinois on February 23, 1905 by Paul P. Harris, a young lawyer. The original group, each of whom engaged in a different form of public service, gathered together in a spirit of friendship and understanding. That basis for membership - one person from each business and profession in the community - still exists in Rotary. At first, the members of the new club met in rotation at their various places of businesses, and this suggested the name "Rotary".
