Pepsi Litte People's Golf Championsips
Crimson Callahan and Reis Dreyer tied for the Westview Men's Club Sportsmanship Award for Boys for 2010.
Crimson, a regular contender in Pepsi Little People's and well-known for his knickers and golfing attire, was nominated by two fellow competitors and by a Little People's Tournament Committe member for the honor.
"Crimson never got mad after any shot" and "He is a great kid. He always hit a good shot, a good putt, and a good chip" were a couple of comments made by his fellow competitors. A PLP committee member stated that "Crimson made it a point to always take off his hat and shake hands at the end of each round. He always did that even when he was playing as a little guy at KC. At the end of the tournament, even though he played at River View, he made a point of coming back to Westview to personally thank the commitee for puttng on a great event."
Crimson is playing in the 18 Hole 12-13 age division in the Gateway Junior Golf Program this year. He is the son of Todd & Laura Callahan of Chesterfield.
Congratulations Crimson from your friends at Gateway PGA!!
