Message from the President Southside Ladies League:  

 Fiona McIntyre

This week was extra special for me as I was able to pick up a golf club or two after an injury. I even managed to hit some straight balls, which I must admit was very encouraging.  I share this story with you as it highlights that our league is for all players, of all abilities with one goal of women playing golf and having fun.  We are all here to have fun, but i do know that a birdie or a par or two does make the game seem sweeter. 

It has been brought to my attention that the ball marks, on the greens, are not being repaired.  Our lovely marshal Louie did shared with me, the step by step process of repairing the greens.   This was very kind of him, but if truth be told I don't hit the greens that hard, I wish I did, but I don’t!  To our league members, who do make ball marks, please repair them, also every player when on the greens and you see a ball mark - repair it.  Louie and Don are eager to give you free  lessons!!! If your golf bag is lacking in tools, the pro shop has a variety to pick from.  I recently bought the yellow flip repair tool.

I hope some of you took advantage of the Nancy Lopez 30% off sale, I would have but I have maxed my  “14 club rule" 

Our ladies league must be getting a reputation for enjoying a “ little drink”. This week Jim worked for another sponsor “icy blue sensation”.   After a wee taste of their new vodka coolers from the Philippines  everyones first drives seemed to be sensational!  

Be safe ladies 

To all league members,  please remember the golf course is on busy country road, actually I call it a race track.  Unfortunately, we heard blaring horns as someone must have driven out in front of one of the “race cars”.   It was quite concerning but we are all very happy that everyone managed to drive away, apparently, without any harm.  While on the course we saw a quad racing down the road with three passengers.  I had to take another sip of my icy sensation to relax after the road shenanigans!

Message from the Sports Captain Southside Ladies League: Lori Reid

The weather was so much better this week and 335 members were able to "take on" the fairways Monday and Tuesday. Whether you chose to play our weekly games or not you are automatically entered into our draws.  So why not play the weekly game just for fun!!  This week was Poker night! Imagine, you could win with three snowmen (just saying, its not all bad).

To celebrate July, being in our rear view mirror, we picked two random draw winners for each day. “double the chances!!”

RANDOM Weekly Draw Winners are:

Monday draw winners:  Linda Brant and Marilyn Klimczak 

Tuesday draw winners:  Sally Thomas and Marna McKenzie  

Congratulations to you all!  Your prize will be waiting for you at the pro-shop as of Monday (see Jaclyn).

Birdies… Birdies …This week we had 16 Birdies!!  5 on the Monday and 11 on Tuesday.  Three golfers had multiple birdies in their round.  Well done, Fiona would like you to share one of your birdies since you have so many!!

For the month of July 48 Birdies were reported.  

The July Virtual Birdie Tree winner is Evelyn Gauvin.  Her birdie was on Hole #12 on July 6th, 2021. Congratulations Evelyn Tweet Tweet! Your prize will be waiting for you at the pro-shop as of Monday (see Jaclyn).

IMPORTANT:  Ladies remember to send in your Birdies and/ or Eagles or Hole in Ones to: SouthsideLadiesLeague@gmail.com for our virtual birdie Tree monthly draw.  All birdies for the month are eligible for a random draw. 

Congratulations everyone!!!!   

See you on the greens next week!

Guest Policy Reminder:

One question that has arisen by a few members this year is “can we bring guests during the ladies league?”  Unfortunately, we are unable to support guests during our Ladies League tee times.  This year with our increased membership, our time slots are extremely tight, and the pro shop will fill open slots as necessary.  In the spirit of being fair and equitable, if league allows a few members bring guests we would have to allow everyone the same privilege.  Unfortunately if everyone brought a guest we would have limited room for our members.  The Ladies League has not permitted guests during my presidency, although I have been told that this practice has occurred.  To offset the official practice of no guests, a few years ago we did introduce our SSLL BOGO GAMES, where you can play on different days with your guest and as a member you have a free play.
