History of the Brown Dog:

The MGA adopted this tournament format back in 1992 when current OCC member/past MGA president Rick Brown (shown in the photograph) was a tournament director. He had played this format previously at a company (IBM) outing and suggested the MGA use this combination of a different 3-man scramble and solo player on each hole… and here we are 30 years later!  Rick’s nickname at the time was “Brown Dog”, as he had a brown Labrador/Spaniel mix dog as a pet that everybody loved. Several years after Rick had rotated off the MGA Board of Directors, this tournament was named The Brown Dog in his honor.
