We are so proud of our own team of Eden Carter, Low Gross, and Christine Lecoutre, Low Net, taking All Around Title of the 2018 State Medallion. Twenty-two teams competed at PebbleCreek on January 5. Eden and Christine in Flight One scored a combined 72, beating the second-place team by six strokes! Boom! Mic drop! Congratulations, ladies!

More congratulations to our new club champions Nancy Gehlbach, Low Gross, and Ginger Mays, Low Net.

I heard one of the Pro Shop guys refer to the Lady Niners as “Slow Walk to the Bar”! Can’t be offended if it’s true… but sometimes it’s a fast walk, and we do play nine holes every Thursday afternoon until May 31. Must be doing something right, because our membership keeps growing – last count at 121. We have separate games on Front and Back Nines and pay out to approximately 10 to 15 ladies on each one. There’s still time to come join the fun.

And so the winners are January 17 Back Nine, Flight One: Brenda Ledene, Sue Ori, Rochelle Wilson, Gail Wooldridge, Linda Weber, Glenna Twing and Diane Hill; Flight Two: Kathy Smith, Julia Collier, Judy Whitney, and Christine Lecoutre; Flight Three: Barbara Gann, Cathy Kinnick, Lisa Mahoric and Judy Hultgren. Front Nine, Flight One: Eden Carter, Lynn Tanner, Andrea Steinhaeusser and Marilyn Jasper; Flight Two: Jill Brindley, Marinell Burnham, Sharlene Clark and Jackie Poettker; Flight Three: Kay Kautzman, Pauline Corcoran, Shirley Trusall and Joanne Dunn

On February 7, the Niners got to play nine holes with the Cottonwood 18ers. The 18ers hosted us with refreshments on the patio afterwards. Always a fun and well-attended function. They said they got to sleep in and play the 1:00 p.m. shotgun, which was a little warmer, but not much! Thank you, CW 18ers!
