In case you’ve been on vacation, the Men’s Club is right
smack in the middle of The Medal Play Championship with the final round
set for this Tuesday, the 17th. If you’re not in it, forget it,
it’s too late, however you can always follow them around on Tuesday
and see how these guys play in front of a huge gallery!!! Knowing Ernie,
he’ll have the final results shortly after the last guy putts out,
so if you really are that interested, hang out on the patio right after
the event and you’ll be among the first to know! The winners will
receive some very nice trophies which will be presented at the Holiday
Brunch in December, but the results will be posted on the Bulletin Board
and the website within hours of this Tuesday’s completion.
If you haven’t heard by now, our new Men’s Club Putting Champion
is Terry Snook, runner-up was taken by Martin Wolf, congratulations to
Terry and all that participated and a big thanks to Roy Stearns for a
well-run tournament, he’s done a few of them before!!
The next big tournament to hit the course will be the Sun City Foundation
Tournament which supports a very worthy charity right here in Sun City.
Bill Whitney is running it this year, it is set for Friday, June 3rd
and I know Bill has openings for it. This is for a very good cause and
is always supported big time by the members of the Men’s Club.
Contact Bill ASAP and get all the details and get signed up.
No General Meeting in June! It would have been on the 1st, so you won’t
have to set your alarm clocks on that day, sleep in!
The Club’s only tournament in June will be the Member/Member on
the 14th and 15th, being run by Dick Mann and Tom Shivley, who have experience
on this one, so it will be a well-run tournament that you should be part
of. Get your partner lined up and be sure you’re signed up, and
I am not sure when you can do that, but probably May 31st for certain.
There will be qualifying in June for the NCGA Senior 4-Ball (2-man best
ball) so see Bill Aaberg and give that one a try. Speaking of the NCGA,
we had 8 of our members play on May 5th in the NCGA Senior Net. Four
of them advanced to the Championship set for Poppy Hills on June 6th
and 7th with scores of 73! Not too bad! Those four members are: Tom May,
Joey Mastrantonio, Martin Wolf and John Jameson, our congratulations
to all and good luck at Poppy Hills. The four members that did not make
it were; Ed Lick, Bill Player, Bill Whitney and Ray Zwemer, their scores
are top-secret.
Mark the calendar for the 21st, that’s the day the club is trying
something new, a low gross, low net tournament on the Lakes-Pines rotation
followed by a steak BBQ at the new facility at the Pines. Dean Mandler
is taking sign-ups and has all the details; see him after Tuesday golf
on the patio. I can tell you that 10 bucks will get you a steak, beans,
beer, wine or soda, so it sounds like a great deal, do it!
If you haven’t done it yet, there is still time to sign up for
the Timber Creek Cup, think big money. John Rowley and Ray Zwemer are
available every Tuesday on the patio to take your name and give you all
the information you want.
No more Tuesday Skins due to lack of interest, which means a little dinky
pool, which means payouts were being made with loose change!
After the ‘no meeting’ announcement concerning the June meeting,
the sleeping in comes to a screeching halt in July; next meeting is July
6th usual time, usual (but outstanding) pastries, and a whole ton of
door prizes at the end. Get the guys together and be there!
