September/October Newesletter

Starting next month (September) the newsletter will be issued every two months! The blog will continue to be updated more often, of course, so don't forget to check out the blog for up-to-date news! Look for the September/October issue of Forebits at the clubhouse next Tuesday!

A Note from Maureen


Dear Ladies,


September/October here we go -- swinging into action! What a busy month we are going to have starting with our traditional Ace of the Month on September 1st. I hope you're all looking forward to the Ringer awards -- I played my eight games and hope you did too. I look forward to a good turnout on the 8th to congratulate the 2009 Ringer winners -- (you try saying it!). We have some important business to discuss at the General Meeting that day and we need everyone's attendance.

On September 15th we will once again celebrate our 80's Ladies. It's their day, all day! The sign-up sheet for this event will be on the check-in table September 1st. Don't anyone dare say we can't do more than one thing at a time -- remember that song "I am Woman" !! The 15th is also our Beat the Pro day. and always a fun time. Finally we end this very busy month with the first round of our President's Cup. Don't forget to put your name on the sign-up sheet -- it's on the bulletin board. Last but not least, be sure to sign up for our annual "Battle of the Sexes" on Friday, September 25th. It's an 8:30am shotgun and always a very fun event. With all the golf we're playing we should be able to beat the guys this year!

October ushers in a return of our beautiful Fall colors. Acorns will be dropping (ouch!) and our days will be cooler. We'll be playing President's Cup all month, looking forward to the final round and awards on October 27th

As many of you know, our dear Pam Finley is on the ailing list. We will certainly miss her on the golf course and hope to see her back on the tee soon. Hurry backs are also in order for Trudy Engberg. Congratuations on your successful surgery, Trudy. You're a trooper! And speaking of TROOPERS, Ruth Barton -- this golf course is not the same without you. Ruth says she'll be one of the "cart girls" for the 80's Ladies this year, joined by Harriett Stevens. Golf is never the same when one of our ladies isn't playing. It's hard to keep our head downs when we're missing you, so get back out here soon!

I'll see you on the tee!

Maureen

Trudy is looking perky and pretty in pink after her surgery on Friday.



Having a few good luck charms didn't hurt!!!!

And she's sporting a new tattoo! She's not sure if it's the doctor's initials, or stands for "just the right".

You look great, Trudy! We'll be looking forward to seeing you back on the course.

More Pink Pig Party Photos

Here are some more photos of the Pink Pig Party.

Handicap Review

Pat Gabler, our handicap chairperson, thought that our members should be aware of some problems that are occuring when posting their scores. According to Pat......


"I just finished the handicap review for the past 30 days. I thought it would be interesting for the ladies to see the numbers.

I really would like to see more compliance in posting and turning in cards. Closer to only 5 to reenter would sure be easier for me :-)

185 rounds played by ladies at Paso Robles
43 scores posted with no cards
12 rounds needing to be entered or reentered--(one member posted a 162 for herself instead of 124"

Drive for Show, Putt for Dough

If you three putt, you pay the pink pig every week. Over the course of a year, this little piggy gets very fat, so in June we take the proceeds and throw a party. This year, Rene'e Rahilly opened her lovely house for the eagerly awaited "Pink Pig Party"! We had lots of good food catered by Cahoots, and enjoyed visiting, soaking in the hot tub, and a spirited game or two of Catch Phrase. The following video shows some of the party.

Third Annual NCGA Women's Only Member Outing

The Third Annual NCGA Women’s Only Member Outing is just around the corner and you and three guests are invited to participate! The past two year’s events have sold out so don’t miss your opportunity to play.

This year’s event is being held on Monday, July 13 at Almaden Country Club in San Jose. Open to women of the NCGA, WGANC and PWGA.

Cost for this event is $135 and will include green fees, cart, range balls, a prize fund contribution, tee prize as well as a lunch hosted by the club. The shotgun start is at 12:00 p.m. and format is Modified Net Stableford.

Players will be separated into flights based off of their course handicap and prizes will be awarded to the top individuals in each flight. With the Modified Net Stableford format each lady will play her own ball and earn points for each bogey, par, birdie or better. The player with the most points will be declared the winner.

When filling out the registration form, be sure to indicate which of your friends you would like to play with. Don’t have anyone to bring? Not a problem, you will be paired with ladies of similar handicap indexes so you can all enjoy each others company.
