| Are they crazy? 100 holes of golf in one day? |
Charlotte Wells and Leslie Lang or "Team Langwell" are doing a "golf marathoner" in the inaugural "Sacramento Golf Marathon" on December 22nd at Haggin Oaks Golf Course. The money raised will support the Morton Golf Foundation that is established and operated exclusively for charitable purposes. Both Charlotte and Leslie are raising funds to help them with their "marathoner", so contact them if you can help.
Playing 100 holes is a LOT of golf on one of the shortest days of the year but maybe some of you will plan for watching them try it! |

Camellia Cup will be a nine-month long match play league beginning in March and ending in November that will play one day a month. We are hoping to have four teams. The number of people on a team will depend on how many people are interested. Anyone with an established handicap index is welcome to sign up, but you must play to a 36 max course handicap.
You can sign up to be member of the team or just a sub. We will be using this format to pick the 12 people to comprise our 2015 Cal Cup team which will be held at Rancho Canada in Carmel Valley on October 24 & 25, 2015. The team needs to be announced by the beginning of September, so if you want to try out for Cal Cup donate that when you sign up.
The four captains are:
Marcia Whiting, Vicki Philpott, Leslie Lang and Charlotte Wells.
The captains will get together and pick their teams from those interested. he league will be run by Kris Corbridge. The format will be one month of two-person better ball, one month of foursomes (alternate stroke), and one month of singles. This will rotate until all teams have played each other.
In order to make the Cal Cup team, you must play in at least four matches by the September deadline. Points will be assigned to wins, ties, and losses. If there's a tie for the last spots on the team, there will be an 18-hole match play playoff to determine the winner. The 12 members of the Cal Cup team will pick their captain from among those who made the team.
Dates for the matches:
| Saturday | March 21, 2015 | Turkey Creek, 8:30 shotgun | | Saturday | April 18, 2015 |
| | Saturday | May 16, 2015 |
