Monday evening, Charlie’s Pub and Grill will host a free Pig Pickin’ for players and volunteers, which will include a chance to win prizes, including a customized motor scooter and Sun Mountain Premium golf bag donated by G Data Software. The first 100 patrons to Charlie’s will receive a copy of the top-rated InternetSecurity 2012. The championship will resume on Tuesday, May 24, at 8:30 a.m., with the division winners and the top 40% of the field receiving their prizes that afternoon.
“We are so grateful for our sponsors and for the support of Mayor Bell.

This year’s event puts us on the trajectory to accomplishing this.”
“As a longtime resident of Durham, I’m so thrilled that G Data’s U.S. operations are anchored here.
