The Poor Boy 2020 Global Pandemic edition

Founder, CEO, and Chairman of the Rules and Accommodations committees of the Poor Boy.  Steve, shown here with his Pandemic Pup Sophie has been weathering the shelter at home era going shopping early in the morning, enjoying an occasional Zoom cocktail hour (with Kopp) and even getting in a few billable hours

One of the founding members and the peripatetic golfer of the crew, Frankie, the 2011 Poor Boy champion, plays out of The Golf Club.  Shown here enjoying a libation on the sky deck of the Frank A Ray Co., LPA world headquarters.  Frankie will be a one day participant in this year's Poor Boy, where he will be granted one day Scioto County origins to play on Fitchy's Scioto County Dull Stars team.

Shown here washing the dishes after preparing another quarantine breakfast, Steve has spent the spring, after returning from Palm Springs, watching it rain and slipping out for an occasional round walking Brookside.  Steve and Brenda were looking forward to attending the beautiful and talented Cora Fitch's high school graduation but will have to hold the celebration for less infectious times.

The reigning Poor Boy Champion, Jeff, seen above accepting the coveted Poor Boy trophy from the previous Champion, captains the Roetzel/Van Eman team in this years event.  Jeff is graciously hosting several of the Poor Boys at a friends house on Lake Erie this year

Tim, a law school classmate of Steve Jones, is  searching for the elusive key to moving up in the Poor Boy this year.  Tim plays out of Wedgewood Golf and Country Club in lovely Powell, Ohio.

Cross has been spending the pandemic FaceTiming kids and grandkids, walking dogs, ordering take-out, and lining up for senior hours at Costco.  Pretty much like everysone else.  Oh, and growing a beard that started out looking like Hemingway, is on its way to Gabby Hayes, and he's hoping for a virtual Santa gig on Amazon by November.

One of the original Poor Boys, and a partner of Steve Jones, (and Jeff twice) Ron has found time in his busy schedule to play in this year's Poor Boy.   Ron has been taking lessons and making sizable investments in golf equipment in quest of wresting the coveted Poor Boy imitation plastic trophy from Jeff's hands.

Todd returns to the Poor Boy after a couple of years of perfecting his game.  Unfortunately, he hasn't been able to play much recently, so is bearing an index from more frequent golfing times.  Todd recently joined the Roetzel firm making the Poor Boy one partner shy of being a company outing with guests. Could be a dark horse this year, having little time to develop bad golfing habits during the pandemic.  Picked to be part of Fitchy's All Scioto County+Frankie Team.
