2009 Annual Charity Event at Vintner's in Yountville
Saturday, May 9, 2009

Callippe 10th hole

We need a lot more players for this great event - please sign up soon!  This is our annual charity event, so we'd love to make a lot of money for Wardrobe for Opportunity.  While it may appear to be a relatively costly event, please remember that your registration fee covers range balls, golf, cart, a sandwich for lunch, and a full dinner (including wine).  We will net over $20 per person for the charity.  It really is a bargain - and well worth every cent!

This is our only males-welcome "Family and Friends" event - it's the perfect time to introduce your significant other, children, and/or friends to the crazy women you play golf with. We'll be playing scramble, with a shotgun start. There will be lots of games and prizes including a putting contest from 9:30-10:30, the 50/50 raffle pot (funds in the pot come from purchase of mulligans, so bring some cash), and prizes for the 1st place, 2nd place, and last place scramble teams.

It's a great event to bring potential new members - each new member you bring in this year makes you eligible for great Member-Get-A-Member prizes at the end of the year.  You can get more info about MGAM on our website home page.

This year we will have the whole course to ourselves if we reach 60 players - we have a way to go yet!

Deadline to register is April 28.

Members & Non-members welcome!

For those of you in the 680 Corridor, Mary Ann Pate is going to coordinate a Wednesday night group with the help of Diana Roberson.  The home course will be Dublin Ranch but they will try to mix it up and add a new course once a month or so.
 
Play dates will be on Wednesdays with the first tee time being about 5:15pm.  The cost is $25 and includes a cart.  If you are interested in playing and want to be on the email list for the weekly reminder, please reply back to Mary Ann Pate.  She hopes to start in May.
