Welcome Reception and Meeting

The Women's Section had their first meeting of the year on Saturday, May 2. The executive was pleased with the turnout of returning and new members. The appetizers were delicious, thanks to Jen's capable effort. Jamie Carter outlined the work that had been done in the club house. Many thanks to the members of the men's section for all their hard work - it would not have been done without them. We said goodbye to Cuyler Hedley-Marion, who is leaving us for her new position working with juniors and the Golf in Schools program with the GAO. (However, she will still instruct our Level 1 and 2 clinics this year.) 

Lynn Attley presented another terrific slide show with a musical theme. Great job, Lynn! 

President Linda welcomed us back and relayed some of the results of the survey from the fall and emphasized the importance of fun and camaraderie in our events. The schedule for the season was outlined and copies are in the locker room, if you need one. Patty described the achievement boards and encouraged all to sign up for Opening Field Day on May 23.

The rules for posting scores for handicap purposes were presented by Tracey Perkin. For new members, make sure you ask the pro shop to put your name in the computer, so you can start entering your scores. The match play boards are now posted on the bulletin board. The deadline for these competitions is June 1.

The Team Play poster is on the bulletin board. You may sign up until May 9. Draft night is May 12 at 7:30. All handicap levels are welcome. Please consider volunteering to be a captain. It's not a hard job!

Tuesday "twoonie" play starts May 5.

Our meeting was followed by the fashion show. Thanks to the willing models, Divine Dave for strutting their stuff , and the clothing companies for supplying their stuff.
