THE END OF A SEASON

Greetings Sun Hills Ladies!

The 2017 season of Sun Hills Ladies Golf Association in officially in the books!  It was the first year of having the 18 hole component to our league.  The participation in both components was pretty equal, which is what we were hoping for.  Aside from the expected growing pains, we feel it was a success.

We had a wonderful Closing Social this past Wednesday.  Ralph prepared a delicious spaghetti dinner.   We had some great raffle prizes and a putter and 5 wood were given away in the door prize drawing. 

During the business meeting there was lively discussion regarding Club Champion eligibility.  In the end, the majority voted to keep the 50% participation to be Champion in tack.  However, ALL members can play in the tourney and win prizes.

Zelva Goodrich, our 2 time President, made the decision to not run again for office.  It was also determined that, with the addition of new technology, the position of Handicap Chair would be absorbed by the Tournament Chair position. 

As a result of these changes the new Board for Sun Hills Ladies Golf Association is:

President:  Karen Mitchell
Secretary Treasurer:  Judi Tutorow
Tournament Chair:  Dodie Roberts

It was suggested that our Spring Opening Social be held in conjunction with an Ice Breaker scramble.  The majority of our members were enthusiastic about this idea.  So keep an eye on the BLOG for more details.  It will be fun to meet all the ladies in our league!

Again, THANK YOU for your support of Sun Hills Ladies  Stay tuned to this BLOG for more posts throughout the off season.

AND...KEEP GOLFING!  THIS IS A WONDERFUL TIME OF YEAR TO BE ON THE COURSE.  And POST your scores!

BLIND DRAW - September 27

Hello Sun hills Ladies!

We had enough ladies turn out for our final POD to draw 8 threesomes using 3 different flights.  We used the scores shot on the front 9.  Thanks to the 24 ladies that came out for our last hurrah!! 

Here are how the threesomes came out.  If you haven't met the members of your group, I hope you will take the time to meet them at the Closing Social. 

Again tanks for a successful 2017 season.  Well will begin again in April 2018!

FINAL 2017 POD

Ladies,  For the final POD of the 2017 season, we will be playing a 3 or 4 lady BLIND DRAW.  This will depend on the number of ladies who participate.

I will pair an A, B, C and D flight player in each group and the scores will be averaged.  It will be a net POD.   The 9 hole ladies will be playing the FRONT 9, so when I do the pairings only the front 9 will be used.

The weather is supposed to be cool and sunny.  Let's have record attendance for this final event.  Winners will be announced at the CLOSING SOCIAL so you can meet your "TEAM".

ENJOY!

CLOSING SOCIAL REMINDER!

Ladies!  Don't forget to sign up for the Closing Social.  Deadline is this coming Wednesday - September 27th. 

We are having out business meeting at Closing Social so that the majority of our ladies will be able to attend.

CLOSING SOCIAL

GREETINGS LADIES!  The Closing Social is just around the corner.  October 4th to be exact.  There will be no cost for members.

This year we are going to have a business meeting along with the normal year end stuff we do.  This is to accommodate our ladies who spend their winters down south.  We have found that there are a handful of members that miss out on the opportunity to be involved in league changes.  We hope this change will eliminate this issue.

If you have friends that don't have access to the blog, please let them know so they can sign-up and get this on their calendars!

The sign up sheets will be out this week and next.  Please sign-up soon so we can have an accurate count for dinner!  There will be some fun auction item so bring some $$!

Image result for funny golf putting images free clip art

Greetings Ladies!

Since we are having regular play this week due to the B & B cancellation, we thought that we would do the POD we missed due to our one cancellation.  We were rained out on May 17 when we were scheduled to play LOW PUTTS.  So tune up the flat sticks...and come ready to putt lights out!!

If you haven't already - MAKE YOUR TEE TIMES!!

BEAUTY & THE BEAST CANCELLED!

Image result for funny EMOJI images free clip art
Due to lack of participation, Beauty & the Beast has been CANCELLED!

It seems that as years have passed, the popularity of B & B as well as Member/Guest has waned.  A couple of years ago, we tried putting a different spin on B & B, but it didn't bring more participation.  So, we are going to put these types of events in "storage" for awhile.

We will be having normal golf on July 19th.  Format hasn't been determined yet.  So remember to book your tee times for the 19th.   

Thanks to the best Ladies League!

CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP

The Club Championship will be here before you know it!  Judi has compiled the rounds each of us has played and emailed those of us who are on the bubble.

With our new 9/18 formats, here is a reminder of how we will be playing the Championship.

Ladies who signed up for 9 Holes at the beginning of the year will be playing the normal 18 hole shotgun at 2:00 on the 2nd Wednesday of August.  We will try to honor pairing requests as best we can.

Ladies who signed up for 18 Holes will be playing 36 holes.  The first 18 will be played on the FIRST Wednesday in August.  You can play with any league member you choose.  Your 2nd round will be played as a shotgun on the 2nd Wednesday of August.  On the 2nd day, you will be paired according to how you played the first week.

There will be some of you who may not have been able to get your required 50% (8) rounds played.  You CAN STILL play in the CC tournament and win prizes.  The only difference will be that you won't be able to be the 9 or 18 hole champion.

The prizes are coming from your dues, so please come out and play!

Wow!  What a difference a week makes!  We went from 40 participants last week to 30 this week!  We thank all of you who braved the heat to come and play.  We had some darn good putting with the ACES WILD Pod.  

It was a bugger flighting and calculating payouts this week.  If anyone has questions about how I figured it out, I'll try to explain.  I used mostly percentages so everyone would have a fair chance.  And with no further ado...congrats to the ACES!
