Mare Island Results
Nineteen players teed it up on Saturday, September 19 at Mare Island in Vallejo. We played the 5-club-plus-putter challenge.
Closest to the pin on hole #3: Dorene Davis (18 inches)
Closest to the pin on hole #17: Cindy Race (11 feet)
Fewest putts: Pat Block (32)
Most lost balls: Mary Ann Pate (4)
Remarkably, most scores were not appreciably different from our rounds with 14 clubs, with most players coming in with net scores in the low to mid 70s. Another great time had by all!

ARE YOU READY TO VOLUNTEER?
 Although 2009 is winding down, some of our committees are starting to gear up for 2010. Our chapter is managed 100% by member volunteers who have an interest to provide opportunities for women to learn, play, and enjoy the game of golf.
Volunteering can be very rewarding. It can give you a direct voice in how your chapter is managed or it can give you a chance to give back to your chapter. New ideas are always welcome. Become an active member in the success of your chapter.
The Events Committee will soon be selecting courses to play for 2010. Contacts, pricing and arrangements will need to be made well before the season begins. Members also assist with games, prizes, etc. New members are needed.
The Social Committee will arrange and prepare for the Kick Off Breakfast/Brunch months before the March date. This committee also is involved in the Year End and other social meetings throughout the year.
Other committees include Communications, Education, Handicap, Leadership,
Membership, Nine-Hole Events, and Sponsorship.
All of these committees are looking for new members for the new year and can use your help. If you would like to join a committee for the new year or would like to know more about any of the chapter committees, please contact Leadership Chair, Ginny Taylor.
