and the Annual Meeting!
PRESIDENT'S CUP (MATCH PLAY)
Sam Mihalik, ASGA President, has selected the following leaders for this year's President's Cup.
Past President, Travis McWhorter will lead the Red
Team as the Captain. Travis selected David Brader to be the
Assistant Captain. Travis' team has now won the first two
President's Cup events and per precedent has once again been
asked to defend the title. They are going for 3 in a row.
Sam Mihalik, served as the Assistant Captain to Travis last
year and with a copy of Travis' playbook of strategic selection
in hand has decided to step up to the tee box and stop this red
streak in its tracks. Sam has selected Allan Myers as the
Assistant Captain of the Blue Team.
The four leaders plus Shawn Higgins, Event Chair, will meet on Saturday morning Oct. 22 to draft the teams.
How do you get to be selected to play Oct 25? It is simple. Sign up or have your usual person sign you up to play in the event on the 25th. The sign up will be open from October 19 until 5 o'clock Friday the 21st. You do not have to select a time as we all shotgun start at the same time. You must be signed up by 5PM Friday because Bruce Jones will then compile the list of signups and forward it to the leaders so they will have some time to prepare for Saturday's draft. You will see which team you are on and who you will compete against in match play on Sunday the 23rd at the regular time on our website.
THE BANQUET/PICNIC
Following the golf tournament you will proceed to the pavilion
and be served your meal. You must exchange your $10 ticket at
the food line and it will be placed in a drawing box that will
result in door prizes and you have to be present to win if your
name is called. There will be no banquet tickets sold at the
banquet. You must buy in advance no later than the event played
October 18th as previously informed. Buy them as soon as you see
a board member. Don't miss this great meal.
Important: the banquet ticket is not registering you for golf.
It is only for food and door prizes. You have to register online in the normal way and also go in the pro shop the morning
of the event and pay your fees including the normal $5 for entry
fee. The winning team members will all win $10 whether they won
their match, tied or lost. It is a team event. One team wins and
one team loses. Play hard for your team.

Wow! That was a lot to cover and all of these things are
important and only come once per year.
Sam Mihalik and all involved have pledged to streamline the
process, but being prompt, involved and supportive will be
important as we have fun and conduct the important business for
ASGA. Find a board member (they're the ones with asterisks next to their names in the lineups), and get your ticket now and sign up to
play the event as well when the time comes.
Sincerely,
