2021 DC (During Covid)

From Barb Pemberton:

Welcome to the first edition of our 2021DC (During COVID) golf tales!

So nice to now be able to both golf and have a bevy on the patio! Almost feels normal doesn’t it 🍺🍷

First celebration was all Patty’s with her hole in one on #4, May 23! You never tire of watching that little ball roll into the cup, so exciting! Can you say Who’s Next?

June 9th brought a sizzling score of 96 out of Lynn’s golf bag. There are many, many more scores like that coming from Lynn this year for absolute sure. Congratulations 🥳 

Not to be outdone, Joan had a great round of 91 on June 10th. Straight. Down. Every. Fairway. 🥱 .  Only kidding lol! So nice to watch.

Is anyone noticing the similarities of those 2 rounds?? Both played with me! 😁

Perhaps I should start renting myself out 🤣🤣🤣

Look at these 2 pics….. Some of our finer moments

First, with the tee at the very back of #17 on June 12th, Ariane, Cathy and I had great tee shots. Only Cathy made the Birdie! Thanks to Betty for being available to snap the shot.

Along the same theme, look at these 3 great shots on #8, June 22, by Betty, Linda and Jeanne. As you may realize, my shot put me behind the camera this time.

If you are a sharp cookie, you will notice that these fine shots are again made by people playing with me!!! I don’t think it is a coincidence 😜

Last but not least, I know most of us enjoy a little treat now and then, so Gail has been thoughtful enough to share her secret cookie recipe. Love when you can satisfy a craving in a not bad for you kinda way. Can’t wait to try them 😋! I am making this big so everyone can read it. 

That’s all I got for now folks. Unfortunately another similarity in this writing is that it is all submitted by me. If there is nothing that comes to me for the month of July, I will get the hint and quit this, but if you are having as much fun out there as I know you are, send it to me so we can all smile and chuckle ! Look forward to hearing from you ⛳️🏌️‍♀️

From our Games Captain:

In the spirit of camaraderie amongst the DWS women, the Games Committee, over the years, has suggested that we have different partners for the various team partner play throughout the year. Given the odd 2 years of golf we have experienced, a gentle reminder may be in order. 

Email notifications and July 13

I think I have successfully moved the email notifications to a new provider - Follow.it. You will likely receive a notification from Follow.it on Monday or Tuesday confirming that you are subscribed to the Dalewood Women's Section Blog. You will need to confirm that you are subscribed. If you don't see the message check your spam or junk boxes.

The posts will look slightly different than before but you can still click on the bold title to get to the page. There may be advertising at the bottom, but the service is free and that's how they pay for it. They have assured me that email addresses are secure.

Fingers crossed that this all works! 🤞

~~~~~~~~~~~

The Bulger Two-Ball Alternate Shot Trophy is going to be held on Tuesday, July 13^th. So now is the time for you to get yourself a partner to participate. I will be sending out a sign-up sheet to be filled in, so once you have your partner, have one of you do the sign up for both. Rules and scorecards will be available on the 13^th. You will have the choice to play in the morning or the afternoon.

 

The cost is $2.00 a person. You will be able to register in the pro shop and leave your money in the box provided.

 

Any questions just send me an email.

Diane Moffat Memorial Bench

We would like to extend a sincere thank you to everyone who so kindly made a donation so that a bench could be purchased in memory of our friend Diane Moffat. 

Your generosity was overwhelming and because of it we have been able to purchase 2 benches. The first bench will be placed by the red tees, under the trees on #17 with a memorial plaque.  The placement of the second bench is yet to be determined. It will also have a plaque with a quote which reflects Diane’s ever positive attitude while on the course. 

We are pleased that the benches have been locally sourced from Taylors in Bailieboro however as with so many things this year the production time is longer than usual.  We are hoping to receive the benches by mid-summer.

On a final note, we wanted each of you to know that we were able to share with Diane our intentions and she was not only surprised but very moved to know that she will forever be a part of our golfing community at Dalewood.

Thank you for your support

Barb, Patty, Yvonne & Lynn

The company that provides the email notifications for the Blog is discontinuing after June, so I am trying to transition to one that provides the same service. There may be some trying times ahead (2 notifications, for example), but as we have said for the last 18 months, we'll all get through this together.

 A message from Ariane and Lynn:

Now that we can finish our round of golf on the patio with a beverage or better yet, dinner, afternoon tee times will begin at 1:00.  

Every Monday you will receive an email from Dalewood announcing the weekly specials.  We have also included the menus.

Due to the current COVID restrictions allowing only 4 to a table and no inside dining, we cannot reserve tables for après golf at this time and so we will all just have to “go with the flow” and be flexible when necessary.  

 This creature joined Sally McNulty and Joanne O'Sullivan last Friday for hole #7. Thanks for sending the photo, Joanne.

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of ROSEMARIE DALE, a former longtime member of Dalewood GC and an active participant in our Women's Section.
