One reason golf is such an exasperating game is that a thing we learned is so easily forgotten, and we find ourselves struggling year after year with faults we had discovered and corrected time and again.

Message from our President
MnMetro Chapter - Events and Leagues Update
Greetings members. Under the current circumstances, our April 18 Tee Off physical event at Rush Creek is
cancelled
. This event has always been our opportunity to get together with old and new friends, sign up for leagues and visit with vendors who support our Chapter. The Board has decided to hold a virtual Tee Off on April 18. (details below) As of now, we are adopting to the current reality in order to get our season started.
We anticipate being able to start leagues and activities at some point in the late spring/early summer, so please renew your membership and be ready to go
when we are allowed to increase activities.
Minnesota Golf News
As of March 31, the current order from the Governor's office does not allow for golf courses to open their operations. The order for closure of public accommodations (E.O., 20-04) includes golf courses and currently ends at 5 p.m., Friday, May 1. The Minnesota Golf Association (MGA) is seeking clarification from the Governor's office to see if golf can be a permitted outdoor activity. Several other states allow golf courses to remain open with modifications for social distancing and other safety measures to protect staff and golfers. The MGA statement was sent to members and is available on their website.
Virtual Tee Off - April 18 from 10:00 to 11:00 AM
Please join us at the first (and hopefully last) VIRTUAL TEEOFF event. We will provide a link to join the event via the Zoom platform.
- We will have a presentation on planned Chapter activities for 2020 and updates from HQ
- The latest plans for leagues will be provided
- We will also answer member questions (as time permits). Watch for a request to submit questions.
- Please invite friends who may be interested in joining the LPGA Amateur Golf Association, as we are planning leagues and events this summer with start dates TBD
2020 Leagues, Golf Events, Clinics
- The Chapter has setup leagues and courses. However, we are not certain when leagues will be able to start. We are monitoring and will provide updates at the virtual Tee Off (as best we can)
- All clinics and events will be monitored and evaluated.
