Venetia Hobson Lewis Golfing with a partner in a match competition against another twosome of partners can be an interesting, vitalizing, and energizing day on the golf course. On the lips of the golfers is the phrase “we’ll ham-and-egg it” meaning when one partner hacks about and makes a mess of golf from tee to…
Marsha Camp Way back in February, you may recall, the last day of our Club Championship was bright, sunny, and confusing. Here is another accolade I missed. Congratulations to our red tees, flight 2 Club Championship winner, Kathy DeMerritt. Ace photographer Angie was able to snap a photo of all the flight 2 winners. Second…
Marsh Camp The last day of SBWGA-18’s Club Championship broke cloudy and cool, but the luck of the Irish was with our major tournament contestants. A bright St. Patrick’s Day sun appeared and warmed the players as they made their way to the clubhouse. A small group of spectators, evenly spaced, applauded the final pairings, then…

Marsha Camp Congratulation to our September Aces, Eila Salaberry and Sandra Murray. Sandra finished with a gross score of 80 and Eila carded a net 59. That’s some incredibly great play. The Sampson and Delilah tournament with the Men’s club was a huge success. Monday, Sept. 9, was a full field event and the shamble/scramble format…
Marsha H. Camp I can hear the groans now, but I’ll say it anyway. The holidays are just around the corner. I’m just trying to get ahead of the curve and give ya’ll time to think about giving. We celebrate our great good fortune for living in this paradise by contributing to local charities through…
Marsha Camp Our Club Championship is the most prestigious tournament of the year. Some of the more serious players actually practice in order to be number one. The rest of us just try to beat our own scores. This year our tournament was reduced to two days, due to rain, and lots of it.…
Marsha Camp Thank you, Cathe, Ila, Judy and Maire, for the rules seminar in February. And, if there’s a huge demand, these gals just might do another one. Until then, to aid our members, I’ve decided to add a rules question segment for your reading pleasure. I will continue these segments until Judy begs me…
Marsha Camp The January membership meeting included a healthy discussion and subsequent vote on the inclusion of those who play from the Red/Aqua Tees into our Ace Day tournaments. The vote to incorporate payouts for the R/A Tees for Gross and Net winners passed by majority vote. The new model of payments for Ace day…
