The Bass Alumni Golf Tournament will be held at “Shadow Ridge Golf Club” on
Friday, March 29th. Shadow Ridge Golf Club is located four miles west of I-59 and
Hardy Street. Directional signs will be placed on the north side of Hwy 98 and
Jackson Street.
Shadow Ridge Golf Club is one of the three courses in the state of Mississippi that
host a professional golf tournament annually. Plus, they are the yearly host for the
Adams Tight Lies and Sprint PCS Tournament. Shadow Ridge Golf Tournament was
nominated as one of the best 100 new courses in the country and has been given a
rating of 4.6 out of a total of 5 by Golf Magazine.
This year’s tournament is a “Four Man Scramble” format with an entry fee of $80
per person. Your entry fee includes green fee, cart, driving range balls, putting
green, one mulligan, Grab Bag, breakfast and lunch. During the tournament our
Bass group [mostly seniors] will be providing free water, energy bars, peanuts and
crackers.
A shotgun start has been set for 9 a.m. FLAT SCREEN TELEVISIONS will be given to
the 1 st. and 2 nd. Place teams. TABLETS will be given to the 3 rd. place team.
Prizes [not determined yet] will be given to the two longest drive holes and the
two closest to the pin holes.
As in the past, we are inviting golfers outside of the alumni family. This has proven
to be a great environment to talk about our wonderful school. Please help spread
the word–especially those alumni in the Hattiesburg, Laurel, McComb, Jackson and
Biloxi areas.
To register your individual or team spot, you should contact Allan Kea at
256-970-9002 or email at allankea1@aol.com. This is extremely important! We
have to give a report to Shadow Ridge Golf Club an approximate number of golfers
that will play in the tournament.

I am hoping to provide all of the BMA yearbook archives in PDF format. I have a few of them scanned and should have them uploaded sometime this fall.
We are attempting to digitally archive all of the BMA yearbooks and make them available here on our website. We will add them as we complete them. Check back often to see if we have added your graduation year. If you have one you would like to have put at the top of the pile, send us a note and let us know.
A note about the files. They are very large (approximately 100 MB each) and they are in PDF format. You will have to have a PDF reader installed on your computer. One can be downloaded from Adobe.
