Next 18 hole Event
Mare Island, September 19
 The next 18 hole event will be at Mare Island in Vallejo. Cost is $55. We will be playing the 5 club + putter challenge - bring only the 5 clubs, plus your putter, that you think you will need to play the course. This is a great chance to test your skills - and your ability to pick the right clubs ahead of time. More important, it's also a lot of fun!

Skywest Results
Eleven members teed it up on a gorgeous Saturday, August 22 at Skywest Golf Course in Hayward. We played Reverse Cha-Cha-Cha - team scores are the totals of low nets (1 person for a par 3, 2 for a par 4, 3 for a par 5).
The winning team was Starla Chimienti, Cathy Smith, and Jane Taylorson with 123 points. The prize was a gift certificate for each player in the pro shop.
Closest to the pin on hole #8 was Starla Chimienti at 20' 9.5"; closest to the pin on hole #12 was Cathy Pementell at 34' 9". The prize was 2 sleeves of golf balls.
A terrific time was had by all!

The competition consists of 2 days of golf. Day 1 is teams of 2 playing either alternate shot or best ball, and day 2 is individual match play. All play is based on handicap, so depending on who you are playing against, you may get strokes on one or more holes. GPS devices are allowed. You do not have to sign up with a playing partner - Barbara should be able help you put a 2 person team together.
The $330 cost for the competition covers 2 days of golf, the Friday evening reception, the Saturday barbecue, and the Sunday awards luncheon.
You can also choose to play in the "Fun Golf Tournament", which will be held on the Blackhorse Course. Non-members and men are welcome to play this event. The women will play from the Red Tees and the men from the White tees as this will equalize the competition in the "Fun Tournament".
