On May 17th, members of the Wine Country and San Francisco chapters held our first "sister" event of 2025 at Corica Park South course. We had a great turnout with 24 golfers. It was a beautiful, sunny and "hang on to your hats" day with very gusty winds (from different directions!). The fairways were wide, the greens large with several levels and very fast. The winds made play more challenging, but a fun day was had by all.
Following our round, we gathered for appetizers and a charity raffle benefiting Pink Ribbon Good (PRG) Bay Area. There were wonderful prizes including Callaway golf balls, jewelry, purses, and the highly bid on round of golf at Corica and gift certificate for 3–25-minute sessions at Stretch Lab Greenbrae. Thanks to the generosity of our members, we raised $1,220 for PRG Bay Area.
Thank you to all who participated in the event and the raffle. And thanks to the sponsors who contributed the great raffle prizes. We hope to see you at our next sister event October 18th at the Presidio.
Team "Magnum Force", (Denise Rose, Vicki Cota, Karri Haven, and Linda Fong) represented our Wine Country chapter at the LPGA Amateurs Scramble Open Tournament at Red Hawk May 2&3. The team enjoyed two days of golf and camaraderie with 44 teams from across the United States.
Congratulations to Denise, Vicki, Karri, and Linda for placing 2nd for low gross in their flight. They shot 71 on Day 1 and 67 on Day 2 for a gross score of 138 for the 2-day tournament. A BIG THANK YOU for representing our chapter in the tournament.
Our first Snowflake League event was held on Saturday, January 11th at Rooster Run Golf Club in Petaluma. The weather cooperated (no rain and warm for January!) and the golf course was in good shape. A good time was had by all who played and after the round enjoyed some food and good cheer.
