A funny from Jackie Mote

Jackie has asked me share with you a funny story...... so here it is!

During her physical examination, a doctor asked a middle-aged an older woman  about her physical activity level. The woman said she spent 3 days a week, every week in the outdoors.

"Well, yesterday afternoon was typical; I took a five hour walk about 7 miles through some pretty rough terrain. I waded along the edge of a lake. I pushed my way through 2 miles of brambles. I got sand in my shoes and my eyes. I barely avoided stepping on a snake. I climbed several rocky hills. I went to the bathroom behind some big trees. I ran away from an irate mother bear and then ran away from one angry bull Elk. The mental stress of it all left me shattered. At the end of it all I drank a scotch and three glasses of wine.

Amazed by the story, the doctor said, "You must be one hell of an outdoor woman!"

"No," the woman replied, "I'm just a really, really shitty golfer".

Teams have been Selected for Women's League

Hi!

All the teams were randomly picked last Tuesday evening for the upcoming Women's League which begins on May 28th.

A reminder to any woman who has not yet signed up and wants to.....you still can!  We have open spots on some of the teams so please do and have some fun.

There are currently 6 teams - team names are being thought of as we speak.  I will be posting the names and members of the teams next week when we have all the information.

I signed up as Captain again this year.  My team consists of Cathy Poole; Cheryl Irwin, Donna Stalker, Jean Shippey, Joanne Martin, Joanne Vleuten, Mame Gooding, Trish Wilkins and Yvette Voegelin.  Now that sounds like a great team!   I am sure that we will  all have a great time on the golf course and also off the golf course!  I look forward to playing with each member of the team this year, so watch out, I will be plugging my name on your time slot some day soon!

It is Friday, before the long May weekeknd!  I hope everyone  has a great one.  May it be safe, and full of laughter and of course, sunshine!

Till next week!

Diane.

Great Weather for Golfing

Hi Everyone!

This past Tuesday was my first "real" round of the season.  The weather was great, and of course the company was even better.  It was great to see so many women out!

A quick reminder to sign up for League play and the Birdies/Eagles/Putts.  The committee needs to put the teams together by a random pick on May 15th.  So get your name in - we don't want to miss anyone.

I also signed up to play in the club's Opening Sunday Round on May 5th.  Another great weather day.  I had the pleasure of golfing with Nora Spence and Hannah Masters.  One of the things I enjoy most when playing in tournaments is meeting new people.  We had a great time and some challenging fun shots.  I think our team ended up with an 85, far off the lead, but we came in first in the enjoyment category!   As we were playing a scramble format, one of our shots landed (lodged)  in the left bunker on 5. Our other two balls were back a ways, in the middle of the fairway  We all looked at each other and decided on the spot to live on the "wild side" and take the challenging shot.  Our Nora hit it out beautifully and the ball landed within a foot of the pin. 

The moral of that story (and there always is one) is don't always choose the easy shot in life....it is more fun to challenge yourself!  You may even end up in a much better position then you ever thought possible.

I look forward to golfing with you!  See you soon,
Diane.

Women's Tuesday League Play!!

Hello Everyone! - if you haven't already done so, please sign up for our Tuesday League play! We need you to sign up by May 14th as that is the night we are picking teams.  The season begins Tuesday, May 28th.  Prize money to be won each week - closest to pin, longest putt. The committee has added a new game this season with a hidden hole.  Whoever scores the highest on this hole will win a nice prize!

To make it more fun we are adding a hole-in-one contest each week - $1.00 of the weekly fee goes into this pot.  At the end of the season, whoever scored a hole-in-one will share the money accumulated.  If no one is lucky enough to get a hole-in-one then the money will be used at the end of the season for prizes and/or the bbq at the roundup.

We look forward to playing with you!
