CHAIRMAN

~ SUZI OLSEN ~

Our golf year is off to a busy start and lucky for us our new 2009 LCOM Rosters have arrived!  No excuses for not knowing what is going on!  From phone numbers to tournament dates to golf game formats and Bylaws, everything is there for the asking.  Thank you P.K. for putting in so much time and effort.  It looks great!

Get your clubs ready...there’s lots of golf ahead!  President’s Cup is about to commence in a couple of weeks. Three weeks of fun yet competitive golf await 32 lucky ladies.  Are you one of them?  There’s still time to sign up in the locker room.  Spring Team, captained by Karen Jordan and Patty Collins, is getting ready for what we know will be a fun and challenging season, and thanks to Georgianna and Ali who kicked off the new year with our new Belle Ringers,  about  45 of us have signed on to see just how good we can possibly get over the next several months. It will be fun to track our progress.

Be sure to take a look at the “Special Events” bulletin board to keep on top of all club activities, and take note of the “Monday Play” dates listed below.

Hope to see you at our next General Mtg on Feb  5th.  Don’t forget your $$ for our “sometimes”  monthly raffle!   

Maybe you’ll get lucky like I did!!  Play well..........Suzi

MAJOR TOURNAMENTS
~ P.K. JENICAN & PATTY COLLINS ~

2009  PRESIDENT’S CUP TOURNAMENT
~ Jill Blurton-Jones ~

Ladies our next major tournament is PRESIDENT'S CUP.  If you have never participated in match play, this is the time!  Match play is the oldest and purest form of the honorable game of golf....just you and your opponent...hole by hole…the game of gentlemen and gentlewomen...and probably the most exciting of golf competitions. Aren't we all glued to the T.V. during Ryder Cup?

It's a fun format, for both low and high handicappers.  Based on a double elimination, you have two chances to move up the ladder and win one of the flights.

Rounds 1 & 2 are flexible dates, making it easy for you to schedule you match.  The Rounds will be played from the Red Tees. 

The Presidents Cup dates are: 

Round 1 Feb 17 - 20

Round 2 Feb 21 - 24

Quarter Finals Thurs 26th Feb

Semi Finals     Tues  3rd March

President's Cup Finals Thurs 5th March

****If needed and it rains you may arrange your final
Match anytime between March 6-24****
 

The Beautiful Sign up Board (compliments of Georgianna Hale’s artistic talents) is located in the Ladies Locker Room. We only need 32 Ladies to sign up. Any questions please contact Jill Blurton-Jones atjillblurton@aol.com or 949-366-9172.

NINE HOLERS
~ BARBARA BEHRENS  ~
Welcome to our new 9-Holer, Vickie Kramer.  Because of a growing interest to play the back nine we will have the opportunity on Tuesday, January, 27th.  We are looking forward to this new experience.  February we have planned a four week eclectic so the girls will get some experience in score keeping and competition.  There will be a prize for the low gross winner.


Please spread the word of our 9-Holer program with the Tuesday Play Days, and the General Meeting Day Clinic, golf and lunch. It is a great way to learn how to play golf and meet new friends. Please call me or Mary Kay Minner.

LIBRARY NOTES
~ Marie DiDonato ~
 

January, February and March are good months for reading books. What could be better than sitting in front of a fire on a cold day or night with a really good book.  Only problem is our Library has not been receiving many new books.  Will you help to change this????


Also, if you have movies you’re tired of watching, and books on tape

you’ve heard many times, please donate them too.


Thanks for your help.
