A Message from Carol Lampard
President, LPGA Amateurs Spokane/Inland Northwest
Hello fellow golfers,
Well, unfortunately our golf season has officially ended within our Chapter. That’s not to say you can’t form your own group to get out and golf while you can, in fact I hope you do! And with the end of the season, comes our annual survey. If you haven't already, please CLICK HERE and take a few minutes to give us your feedback. It's important to hear from our members! I think we had a great season, and I look forward to more fun and camaraderie in the spring.
Thanks to all that attended our Year-End luncheon on October 25th. We enjoyed the taco bar provided by the new restaurant -- Chavelitas Pub Grill & Cantina -- at Trailhead Golf Course. Our guest speaker, golf professional Michelle Graffos, was great, and she offered wonderful suggestions for swing mechanics, focus for practice and golf course etiquette. I hope we can all remember the important things she mentioned to us and use them when we next play. Pace of play is sooo important. See below for more suggestions.
I’m happy to report that Jill Gaffney and Ranee Gosney have volunteered to work on the Scholarship committee and the Sponsor committee, respectively. We sure appreciate these two newer members for stepping up to help with our Chapter. We still need a few more volunteers to help with our Facebook and Instagram accounts which don’t require much time, as well as a second Golf Genius lady. We will help you learn what’s involved. If you know how to use a computer, you can learn Golf Genius. Click here to SEND ME AN EMAIL if you're interested in helping.
Lastly, thanks to everyone at the luncheon who really stepped up to raise money for our scholarships. The 50/50 raffle was a great success. Many thanks to the winner, Cheryl Weitzel, for donating her 50 percent win back into the scholarship program. So, we raised a total of $700! That, along with the funds from our sponsorships, will ensure our golf scholarship program continues to be a success for high school girls.
Thank you to all who made our season a success. Your Board will be working throughout the winter to come up with some new and creative ideas in hopes of making our Chapter even better in the future. Stay tuned.
Take care and thank you,
As always,
Carol
