Snow Bunny League - it's a wrap!

Just the facts m'am ... the field was divided into 3 flights based on course handicap and the winners ($15 gift card from The Super Store at Haggin Oaks) were: 

Flight A - Vicki (sandbagger) Philpott shot 80 for a net 66 (glad we weren't wagering)
Flight B - Karen Zamarripa shot 97 for a net 69  
Flight C - Penni Hansen shot 113 for a net 75

 

 

Closest to the pin on all par 3's won a round of golf at Teal Bend.  I have to admit the pin placements on #12 and #16 were  pretty mean!   

Hole 4 - Lynda Lapp 12' 
Hole 9 - Jeri Paik 26' 8" 
Hole 12 - Marsha Suter 23' 10"  
Hole 16 - Penni Hansen 18' 2"  

 

 all results and pictures ...  

 

Thanks to Linda Reid for managing the Snow Bunnies this year ... everyone had a great time!!

Wednesday Evening Casual League

Starting April 9th at Arcade Creek (Haggin Oaks), please join us for 9 holes of golf.  Tee times start at 5:30.  You do not have to play regularly, just come out when you can.  No registration is required, but please let Judy Mayes know if you are planning to play.  We only have room for 16 players and this is a very popular event.  The "early bird catches the worm", so the sooner you let her know every week that you plan to play, the more assured you are of a spot!

 

Once you have contacted Judy, you will be added to the mailing list so that you get an email each week with the opportunity to sign up.  You can email Judy at [email protected].  

 

We look forward to seeing you there!
