August 2005

In July, our Men's Club and Ladies' Club held their Member/Guest Tournaments. These fun events allow us to have a great time as we show off our beautiful course. Thank you, Todd and crew, for working so hard to help us look so good. Thank you, Men's and Ladies' Clubs, for helping with weeding, planters, and everything else you did. Our course looked spectacular!

As we slide into August, our Club Championships are underway. Good luck to all participants. I hope your 'best swing' is with you during the tournaments. We appreciate Kim Titus for setting up the Ladies' Club competition and Jeff Mackay & Curt Halsan for setting up the Men's Club competition. Don't miss the Club Championship finals on Sunday, August 14, 2005.

Our election of officers is coming up. In mid August a committee will be formed to create a slate of officers. Positions available are President, Vice President, Treasurer, and 2 Trustees. President, Vice President, and Treasurer are 2 year terms. Trustee is a 3 year term. If you are interested and willing to hold any of these positions, or if you'd like to suggest someone else, contact any board member now. Ballots will be out in September and must be returned by the start of the Annual Meeting on October 11, 2005, 6PM. Results will be announced at the Annual Meeting.

Junior Golf has been fantastic! It's nearing completion for approximately 90 young golfers. Thank you, Mike Johnston, Chris Frey, and Karen Frey, for setting up this outstanding program. Lots of volunteers have helped the program run smoothly. It's a great opportunity for seasoned golfers to share their love of golf with new golfers. Thank you, parents, for transporting your kids to our course so they can learn to play the game of golf. There are a lot of nice people involved with this program! Thank you, everyone.

There are lots of warm, sunny days left this summer. See you on the course!
