Ladies Golf News ~ September 2021
August started with the International Format. Teams were chosen by the Pro Shop. Two best net balls on 4’s, 5’s and one best net ball on 3’s. Winning team was Cindy Soccio, JoAn Treskovich, Becky Demuth and Sherry O’Halloran. The 9-holers did not have a quorum for a gadget.
August 10 was slated for no play, but the scheduled outside event was cancelled. Beat the Pro, originally scheduled for May 11, was rained out. Unfortunately, the game suffered the same fate as only four holes were played when the thunderstorms rolled in. Perhaps next year will have a better result.
Friends Day, hosted by Betty Rosa and Karen Thompson, saw a strong turnout. Thanks to Bill Elliott for expanding the event so members were allowed to bring up to three guests. He and his staff are commended for providing a wonderful lunch under difficult conditions. Thanks to Betty and Karen for the delicious table favors.
The Ladies’ Classic was played on August 24. Thanks to Enis Cassill for organizing the event and for treating us to an ice cream dessert. Results as follows:
1st Place gross Becky DeMuth with an 89
1st Place net Karen Thompson with a 73

A new event, Member-Member, will be played on August 31, with two person teams chosen by the Pro Shop. Results will be reported in the September newsletter.
Gadget play in September will be curtailed for September 7 and 14 due to course aeration. We will start again on September 21 with another new game: Three Clubs & One Putter.
