LATEST CLUB NEWS FOR 04-23-20

Greetings fellow golfers,

Some of you may have already heard; the Saticoy Regional Golf Course is now open.  Here are the current rules according to Jack Fenelon:

  • Walking only!  No riding carts.
  • No cash payments.  Credit or debit cards only.
  • Players must stay at least six feet apart at all times.
  • Foursomes will start every ten minutes.
  • The cups on the greens are inverted so the ball won’t fall in.  This is so you don’t have to reach down into the cup.
  • The pins (flags), rakes, and ball washers are gone.
  • The course will be open from 6 AM to 6 PM.
  • The driving range will be open, but the putting green will be closed.

Jack Fenelon also informed me of the following:  The biggest obstacle for our club members will be having to walk the course under these temporary rules.  We have very few members that chose to walk.  So, until driving carts can be rented again, we will NOT be having our weekly tournaments.  We will have informal play for anyone who wants to show up on Thursday mornings on a first-come, first-play basis.  Because of the inverted cups, we will not be posting scores.  I will let you know when the course starts renting carts again so we can then resume our tournaments.

The Presidents cup for May is cancelled as well as the luncheon (general  meeting) scheduled for May  14th.

Lets be extra, extra careful out there, what with all these cootie bugs floating around out  there.

Regards,

Robert Escobedo
