From the President's Desk
  
Hannah Lehman,
EWGA Fox Cities-Green Bay Chapter President

We are getting closer to golfing season...I can feel it! EWGA's theme for March is "Discover EWGA, Women & Golf". What a great theme as we get excited about warmer weather. 

Our board is planning our Annual Spring Kick-Off event. This year, the event will be at Butte de Morts Country Club on April 23rd. Help us spread the word about our chapter and this event to your friends, family and colleagues. The best advertising our chapter has is our members. 

If you need incentive to help us spread the word, for every non-member you bring to this event, your name will be entered into a drawing to have us pay your League green fees this year ($150+ value)! All you need to do is help others discover what a fun group of women we have at EWGA-Fox Cities/Green Bay. 



As always, please reach out to me with any questions or comments...about anything! And think spring, and think GOLF!

Fox Cities/Green Bay Chapter President
