By looking at the temperature
of the last few days, golfing
time is almost here, and,
appropriately, the Annual Golf
Meeting of Willow Creek was
held February 13 in the meeting
room of the Columbia Basin
Electric Coop.
New officers were elected as
follows, President, Bob Jepsen;
Vice-President, Dennis Martin;
Sec. -Treasurer, Carol Kerr.
Board members are the above
officers, plus Ed Hiemstra,
Mnze Mahoney, Norm Rickert
and Clinton McQuarrie.
New ideas were brought up
for discussion. One new idea
was to have Ladies' Play on a
certain evening, which would
enable those ladies who work, to
have a chance to get their
golfing in along with the other
ladies. An evening play for men
during the week was also
suggested. Seems like too many
people are too busy working,
but this would make it possible
for them to have a relaxing time
on the links. A breakfast for
men members and a guest was
proposed for April.
Another suggestion was a
"New Deal" and was voted on
to carry through. This is the
"New Deal" - if you are one that
would like to play golf, but
never have tried it and would
like to experiment to see if you
like the game - here is your
"New Deal". You may have a
temporary membership for 30
days for $5.00. If you want to
join Willow Creek Country Club
after that time, the $5.00 will
apply on your membership
dues. Sounds like a "Real Deal"
doesn't it?
It was voted on and passed
that Out of County Guests
may play all day for $3.00. You
don't find that kind of fees on
many golf courses.
a schedule for barbecue dates
and names of members to host
same will be set up and sent to
all members, the same as has
been arranged in former years.
There will be a meeting later
this spring for the Ladies
Organization to discuss
problems pertaining to their
organization. It is hoped the
evening play will enable more
gals to participate.
Men's Sunday morning
schedule will be made by
Dennis Martin and Ed Hiems
tra. Men's Summer Tourna
ment will be held again this
year. The men golfers are to be
congratulated on the excellent
tourn-out they had every Sun
day in the summer of 1972.
Their Sunday play was run very
efficiently and proved to be a
very successful season for
them. The gal golfers were
pleased to learn how much
money was earned by their
"Penny a Putt" fund. The men
realized how many times they
used the little club "The
Putter".
A very interesting tovie
"1971 Masters' Tourni....ent"
was shown. The interest in the
movie was expressed by the
moans and groans from the
audience when a putt was
missed, and by the sighs, when
made.
Awards for the summer of
1972 were given. Ray Massey
won the Club Championship
Award of the Elimination
Tournament. For the "All
Summer Tournament", C.C.
Carmichael was the winner of
Low Gross and Low Net.
Refreshments were served
following the meeting and
movie.
You will say "Is this neces
sary?", but 1973 dues are due.
The sooner you get them in - the
more you feel you belong.
