Leonardtown, MD – With summer winding down, thoughts of cool fall weather are setting in. The change of seasons also ushers in one of the area’s biggest events … the annual Scott Verbic Memorial Golf Tournament.
The 22nd annual tournament takes place on Friday, October 13, at the Wicomico Shores Golf Course. The event is held in remembrance of Scott Verbic who was a Recreation Advisory Board Member, volunteer coach and advocate for youth in the community.
