OLNGA members and guests enjoy golf and fun
Ann Rounthwaite
If you’d like to play golf with a friendly and supportive group of women, why not try a game with the Oakwood Lady Niners? We play nine holes every Tuesday morning on one of the Oakwood courses. Afterwards, everyone is invited to have lunch together at the Stone and Barrel, and there are also several organized luncheons.
Joining the Oakwood Lady Niners Golf Association (OLNGA) is a good way to learn the rules and etiquette of golf in a relaxed environment if you’re a beginner, but more experienced golfers who fancy some competition can compete for the State Medallion tournament and Club Championship. It’s a great way to meet other golfers and make new friends. Call Pat Stead at 480-883-1450 or 480-213-7163 for more information or to arrange to join us for a game and see what you think.
