Thank you very much, ladies – you all are the “magic wand” that makes our league successful. Our IWLN is very fortunate to have such wonderful volunteers who work hard to keep our league running smoothly.

Golf Buddies Program: About one year ago, our IWLN orientation chairperson Judy Frink created the “Golf Buddies Program” where at orientation, each new member is offered a seasoned IWLN member to assist her in becoming familiar with the league. Usually, if a new member is new to the area, unfamiliar with league play or doesn’t know anyone, she may request a golfing buddy. She is assigned a volunteer, and the volunteer will contact her about when they can play together. The pairings committee is notified to schedule both to the same foursome for one or two weeks. Since the inception of this program, seven volunteers provided this service 26 times during the 2017 golf year. Wonderful job, Judy, and thank you to the seven volunteers. If you would like information about our fabulous league, please contact membership chair Janis Gustafson at 701-388-5833.
