TEAM PLAY

Our fifth year of Team Play produced the closest finish we have ever had. The top three teams finished within 2 points of each other. As Tracey pointed out, "That could be 2 people playing or not playing sometime in the season!" In first place earning 128 points were Sweet Baby Janes. The two teams tied for second with 126 points were Lynn's Luscious Ladies and Par Tee Pals.

Members of Sweet Baby Janes, L to R: Lynn Attley, Laura Ebbrell, Captain Jane Gibbens, Claudia van der Meulen, Lynda Rennick, Susan Ross-Foster, Betty Bright. Missing: Ann Hall, Christine Kwiatkowski, Ene Milner.

And the lucky keeper of Harry is Diane Moffat! 

Doesn't she look thrilled?

When will these turkeys learn to rake the bunker?

Solheim Results

Congratulations to the Gages Creek Herons for winning the 2018 Solheim Cup!

Worth noting - there were no sweeps of points and everyone contributed to their team totals. Well done players!

Thanks to all who participated and survived the extreme heat once again! Thanks as well to Sandi MacDonald and Diane Moffat for organizing.

Solheim Update:

Good news, Bad News!

There has been a good number of people signed up for the Solheim Cup for this Saturday, September 15th! The bad news, more Herons than Falcons are able to play this year.

My plan is to make the draw on Thursday. So, to make teams even, some Herons will become Falcons this year. 

Cost is $5...cash.

Obviously this was the best spot on #9 to sink the "longest" putt from - or a new game, croquet-golf.
