Greetings fellow golfers. 

So, we are off and running with our golf season. Finally. Have you been chomping at the bit like I have been? Today, as our newsletter appears in your inbox, many of you were at Indian Canyon shaking off the rust and hopefully having lots of fun. I’m sorry ( not sorry) that I was not able to join in the fun as my husband and I are on a Mediterranean Cruise. This means a late start to the season for me, but I’ll do my best to catch up when we return!

Thank you to those of you that joined us for our Kickoff Luncheon. It was a great to see everyone without our hair pulled back and hats on. I had a great time meeting our Scholarship winners and especially our newest Chapter members. I hope you all enjoyed the day as much as I did. 

Hoping to see you all soon and until then remember “ No strangers here, just friends you haven’t met.”

Always,
Carol
 

Kick-off A Huge Success 

The 2026 season Kick-off, held at the Trailhead Event Center in Liberty Lake was a great success. The nearly 50 attendees heard reports from Chapter leaders, met our new members as well as the three new scholarship recipients, and enjoyed a presentation from PGA Assistant Pro Karina Davila. The raffle, silent auction and 50/50 drawing netted $1248! These funds help support our Chapter activities, including the scholarships. Many thanks to Karen Westberg for her expert coordination and to the many volunteers who put her plans into action.
