2008 Chapter
Championship Update
Saturday, June
21st This year the
qualifying event is taking place at Franklin Canyon Golf
Course in Hercules. This is an EWGA Members Only
event.
We have 25 members competing at this event (3 scramble teams
and 13 stroke players in three flights)!
USGA Rules apply. A free Rules seminar, presented again
this year by KC Cote, NCGA rules
official, will precede the event (9:15am) at the golf
course and will be open to all members, playing or not.
In order to meet EWGA yardage requirements, 3 holes will be
shortened. Hole #6, a par 3 will have the forward tees moved
to the other side of the ravine, shortening the hole to about 90
yards. Hole #7, a par 5 will have the forward tees moved to
the other side of the cart path near the fairway. Hole #12, a
dog-leg right par 4 partially over a long ravine, will have the
forward tees moved up making the drive over the ravine
easier. All stroke players will play from the forward
tees. Individual scramble team players with handicaps of 27.1
or higher will play from the forward tees. More
information will be mailed to the
competetors.
Members will compete in flights according to their
handicap or self-arranged scramble teams. Two
winners from each flight (Low Gross and Low Net) and one
scramble team will advance to the semi-finals at
Summitpointe Golf Course in Milpitas on July 26th
(mark your calendar!) where they will compete against winners
from other northern California and Nevada EWGA chapters.

Another
Hole-In-One!
She did it
again!
There she was - on the 10th tee at
the Dollar Ranch Course at Rossmoor. ( A par 3 hole with the
flag in the back at approximately 130 yards, downhill and over
a creek.) She pulled out her 6 iron took a comfortable
backswing and...perfect! It landed left of the
hole in a left-to-right wind and rolled right into the
cup! That was Pat Block's
FOURTH hole-in-one! Witnessed by Ginny
Taylor, Joanne Segovia
and the marshall.
Drinks all around...oops...no bar at Rossmoor yet. Next
time.
