Come and join us to represent your SWFL chapter in a fun competition against the Manatee Chapter Sunday, August 16th at Riverwood Golf Club in Port Charlotte
We are playing a 2 person team match play competition. Sign up as a team, if you have a playing partner, or individually and we'll match you. Maximum stroke allowance between partners is 8. We'll make an adjustment if the difference is higher.
1 point is scored for each hole won, a half point for holes tied. The chapter with the most points won, will take home the trophy. Ladies, come on and let's bring the trophy home.
We have tee times off #1 and #10 starting at 8:30a (sorry no shotgun due to Covid 19)
The rate is $55.00 per person for golf, lunch, tax and prizes.
Registration is now open on 123
As Events Are Ready For Sign Up - You Can Find them HERE
*Note at this time course selection offerings are limited to those who are able to commit to chapter Covid-19 single cart, cart sanitizing between use and social distancing requirements with advanced booking sufficient to support registration. We hope, and do expect, several of our partner clubs that are closed right now to non-members to open to reciprocal play and will schedule play with them as it becomes an option.

Volunteer
Current Volunteer Opportunity:
Members Helping Members
During this challenging time we recognize that some of our chapter members may be in need of assistance. In response we are setting up a support network called Members Helping Members, and we are making available assistance to ANY chapter member that has a specific need (see the list below for some examples). If you (or a member you know) could use some help, or even a little emotional support, don’t hesitate to email our Member Assistance Coordinators: membershelpingmembersswfl@gmail.com
The coordinator will then make contact with the member in need and arrange for a volunteer helper to fulfill the requested task.
As this is a new program we are still looking for help. If you are interested in being either a coordinator or volunteer helper you can also email the coordinator mailbox at membershelpingmembersswfl@gmail.com and state what services you are willing to help with and the geographic area within the chapter you are willing to travel within.
Stay well and know there is help available -
Your SWFL Chapter Members Helping Members Team

PLEASE NOTE:
Participation in this as a volunteer to help OR a recipient of help is voluntary, and up to each member to personally decide if they want to participate. Please consider known and unknown risks involved based on federal, state and local information along with your personal situation and comfort level.
