The “Hole In One” Club is growing! So many thrillers happening among our league ladies and especially on our league day. Congratulations to new member Susan Head on her best shot of the morning on Hole 11.
For the “Spirit of Holiday Giving and Sharing” the LLGA-18 collected needed items and cash for the Ronald McDonald House of SW Florida. Thank you to our members who so generously gave to this great cause. Families stay at the Ronald McDonald House when family is in the hospital and these personal needs – games and reading materials – make their stay more welcoming.
For entertainment we enjoyed the talented “3 L’s”, where Liz Welsh, Lynda Redmon, and Lisa Cates provided fun Christmas songs, which included some original arrangements. Great job gals! Our game of the day was a challenging 6-6-6 team game where we took 1 BB, 2 BB, and 3BB throughout the course on the designated holes. A big THANK YOU to Steve Carney for donating some of his creative wine cork Christmas trees for prizes. The winners were thrilled to get one of these originals.
Other games we have experienced this month included Stableford, Match Play and Low Gross with handicap. Liz Welsh had an amazing day on one Wednesday where she won First Place and got “Closest to the Pin” on BOTH holes! The clubs were tuned up that day.
Coming up next month we will enjoy some competitive play as the Presidents’ Cup will be held on two of our Wednesdays. We hope we have a great turnout for this very popular experience. Our “Member/Guest Day is also scheduled where we invite a NON-18-hole league member from The Landings or golfing guests from outside of The Landings. This had been a most popular event in the past and hope we see many of our members participate.
We have enjoyed meeting many of our new members and hope they are having a great time getting to know everyone. Our Greeters for December were Belinda Stacey and Mary Paulson. As I write today, we wish Tiger Woods a Happy 50th Birthday! He has contributed SO much to the game of golf for young and experienced folks. Perhaps we will see him play again in the PGA Senior events
