Today I played the SaddleBrooke Nine, four days after the course opened following the annual reseeding. My hat is off to Mike Roddy and his crew! The fairways and greens are beautiful. Big thanks to all who worked to bring our course back to this wonderful condition in such a short time. It was a delight to play and the cart path only requirement is a plus providing exercise and calorie burn.
Our September Aces are Brenda Brown (Low Gross 92) and Molly Fullerton (Low Net 71). Congratulations, ladies: smashing rounds!
The Nominating Committee (Kerry Wolfe, Ann Running, Jane Wilson, Victoria Wareing and Sandi Chester) have put together a slate of officers for 2015.

Members running for the Board are Debra Finn, President; Abbie Egolf, Vice President; Angie Denahan, Secretary; Karen Haddock, Treasurer; Reenie Romey, Tuesday Play Day; Judy Fick, Special Tournaments; Brenda Brown, Handicap; and Molly Fullerton, Membership. A very impressive slate!
Tournaments and fun play days await us. Guest Day will be held on October 28. Co-chairs Wanda Hutchinson and Dudie Lewis have planned a fun day with a Halloween theme. All members are encouraged to play and may invite up to three guests. The Cactus Classic is scheduled November 4, 6 and 11. Phyllis Sarrels and Kathleen Houser are organizing this three day, low net tournament. Participation all three days is required. Signup sheets and additional information are available on the SBWGA-18 bulletin board.
November Ace Day is set for Tuesday, November 18 and then on November 25 we will play Pass the Turkey! Who knows what the day will entail, but with a name like that you need to sign up and play.
December continues with fun events. On Tuesday, December 2 we have the opportunity to pick our playing partner. Play day will conclude with our holiday luncheon! This is always a fun day. The Ace of Year will be played on December 9.
