Welcome back to the following members: Patty Barbosa, Greg Correa, Bruce Chambers and new member Mike Valva.
I have three Saturday tournaments scheduled for the coming year. Please let me know if you would like to see more of them.
SCHEDULE OF TOURNAMENTS FOR 2010
As our club has declined in numbers over the last few years, it has been suggested that maybe we should just look at DATES only for next year and then several months before, call in for as many foursomes we can get without having to setup for a tournament. This would eliminate a considerable amount of cost charged by the golf course for tournaments and it would also give us a little more flexibility for adding courses.
I have set the schedule for 2010. We have several courses that are already confirmed with deposits so we're pretty much stuck with them although, they are courses we have played in the past and all are nice courses.
RODDY RANCH G.C.
The first tournament on our 2010 schedule is Roddy Ranch G.C. in Brentwood (Antioch) on Friday, February 26, 2010. Greens fee, including cart and prize money is $56.00 and is due on, or before, February 16th.
This is one of the set tournaments that I had scheduled last year prior to the decision to just call a month or two in advance and schedule as many foursomes as possible. There will be some tournaments that we will have to set up in advance such as Poppy Hills if we decide to play there the Thursday before Pacific Grove.
