Tournament Chairman’s Report
Bob Remy reported that we had a successful year in spite of weather cancellations. 
  • Remy also requested that if you call in and get a tee time for a foursome, and for some unforeseen reason can’t make the tournament that you or one of the group should call in and cancel.
  • New member recruitment. If you bring in a new member, please walk him thru the process, to include: fill out membership card in its entirety, help them determine a handicap (via Paul Redden for help). If new member plans to play in the next tournament, this registration process must be completed by 12 Noon of the Sunday preceding the Tuesday Tournament.
