GRAFTON - Winter weather in April has prompted the Grafton Chamber to reschedule its first-ever golf tournament, Mississippi Masters, from April 6 to Friday, April 13 at Lockhaven Golf Club.

“Unfortunately the weather hasn’t cooperated,” said Grafton Chamber President Jamie Clayton. “With the forecasted winter weather mix on Friday we decided it was best to move the tournament to the following Friday. We think Friday, April 13 will be good luck for us.”
