Ashley Forey Girls Golf Tournament pushed to May 11

It’s been a wet spring season, and Monday’s rain pushed back the annual Ashley Forey Memorial Golf Tournament to May 11.

The event had been set to for a 10:30 a.m. start at Rolling Hills Golf Course, but course officials decided to postpone to a later date because of the rain.

The tournament typically draws a field comprised of the state’s top golfers, and is annually one of the season’s best events.

Now in its 21st year, it honors the memory of former Wheat Ridge golfer Ashley Forey, who died in a car accident in 1994.

Regionals are set to complete in both classes on May 8, but the competition is allowed so long as individual golfers don’t play more than 198 holes this season.
