The highlight of January was our League’s Member-Guest Day. This year the theme was “Golf is for the Birdies.” The Committee chaired by Pam Gruscz included Darlene Kratz, Denise McNamara, Linda Oleska and Pat Tylander. The golf was a straight-up Scramble. A little birdie told me that some teams had many birdies. Tweet-tweet!
The room was beautifully decorated with “birdie” accents. Players were gifted with a whimsical golf towel to commemorate the event. The lunch was once again delicious. In addition to the awarded sweeps prizes, many door prizes were very kindly donated by local businesses.
During the first of the cold Fridays in January, our ladies played a Scramble with a minimum of one drive per player. Unfortunately, our golf-themed BINGO game day had to be canceled because the course was unplayable and too wet and cold even for the hardiest of golfers. The final Friday was a Shamble format where everyone tees off, then the team moves to the best drive, and from there everyone plays their own ball until it goes in the hole. It seemed as if the pins were placed in difficult spots and a lot of potential birdies were missed.

We have been missing our Golf shop liaison/ leader Garret who has been home supporting his wife as they welcomed a baby boy into their family in January. Thank you to Chris for taking care of us in Garret’s absence.
Thank you to our January hostesses Pat Tylander and friends.
