Fore!

10/25/2020- Congratulations to the team of Chris Beckham and Jeff Brunton! The dynamic duo took home the 1st place trophies with an 11 under 53. The 11 under includes two eagles and seven birdies.

The second place accolades go to the team of Ed Kopfle and Tom Wise. This team rode Tom's stellar back 9 to win second place. Their round of 10 under included 7 birdies and two eagles with a bogey mixed in. Tom also gets a shout out for the lowest individual net round of the day.

The third place awards go to the team of Jerry Fallon and Greg Rose. This team shot a 9 under 55 with 3 eagles and 8 birdies, mixed in with a double bogey and three bogeys. Congratulations to the trophy winners yesterday!

Everyone who won a trophy will receive it this year. However, I'm sorry to report that we decided to cancel this year's awards banquet due to the concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic. Very few members were planning on attending and it feels like, in this lousy year, it was the responsible thing for us to do. Cattlemen's was understanding and allowed us to use our deposit for next year's awards banquet when (hopefully) we're on the other side of this virus.

As the banquet was generally a big reward for current members, the officers decided that renewal fees for 2021 will be significantly reduced to $40 for returning members. This offer will be good until the cut off date of December 21, 2020. So if you plan on rejoining our club for 2021, please turn in your applications and check or cash for $40 by December. You can bring or mail your applications to the pro shop at Indian Creek. I hope you all return in 2021! $40 is a terrific deal to maintain your NCGA membership and participate in our tournaments. For those who have already renewed for the original $75, we will reimburse you the $35.

The 2021 schedule was approved by management. The link is to your right in the FYI section. Please pay attention to the dates in June. We will play every other weekend until June 19. We will play back to back weekends of June 19 and 26 and once again have a three week gap between the final August tournament and the start of the Club Championship. I also added a couple of different tournaments.

Our next tournament is November 7, the turkey shoot. We won't have turkeys but we will have Walmart gift cards for those members who play on Saturday. Tee times start at 7:30. I have the sign up sheet but you can email or text me if you wish to play. Enjoy the rest of the weekend. I'll see you next time.

I can't miss this!
