LA GOLF NINERS By Marti Schmidt In case some of you don’t know us, here we are at Opening Day (fr om left to right): Secretary Marti Schmidt, President Janet Mutz, Treasurer MaryLou Jameson, and Vice President Denise LaCaprucia. Shout out to Diane for suggesting we clown around. Just a quick reminder that the Board’s term is 2-years and we will need a Vice President and Secretary before our term ends in April. It’s never too early to ask! November will bring our collection for Senior Orphans. This year we are asking for individually wrapped snacks to put in nursing home care packages. We will collect November 7th and 14th and deliver them in time for holiday baskets. Thanks in advance for all your support. Golf tip for this month: ready golf. Be thinking about your next shot as you drive to your ball. Be considerate of your fellow golfers and keep practice swings to a minimum. Pace of Play means keep the foursome in front of you in sight. Numbers will start to increase with the return of snowbirds, and we need to complete our 9-holes in 2-hours. We’re back to starting at 9:30 am and gathering in the parking lot adjacent to Mulligan Way. Looking forward to seeing you there! Still have questions? Ready to join?

Mark your calendar to participate in our first tournament November 7 — 8 with the LAMGA men’s group. Sign up sheets have been posted in the Pro Shop. The two day tournament includes lunch on the second day, and bring extra money for a 50/50 share the wealth. Opening day luncheon is scheduled for November 14 after golf. The theme is ”Let The Games Begin!” Get your favorite sports attire ready, be it golf, football, baseball etc. You get the idea! We will also have a 50/50 share the wealth on that day. Our first opportunity to give will be a food drive November 7-14. Boxes will be placed in the Pro Shop to drop off your donations or we will collect them before golf on Tuesday. The donations will be split half and half between Lake Wales Care Center and the Mission in Winter Haven. Your next opportunity will be a Toy Drive December 5th – December 18 and again we will have a box placed int the pro shop or you can donate before golf. You do not need to be a golfer to donate. January will be our last fundraiser We Care for Kids. More information to follow in December. Our Red Hoagland Challenge leaders as of October 3 are: Gina Martine Cheryl Coveleskie Liz Leigh Margie Dersham $78.50 $77.25 $73.25 $69.50 As you can see the year is in full swing.
