For those of you who missed the luncheon, the Board Member positions for the coming year were voted into office. All current Board Members ran unopposed, so the Board remains the same. We also discussed the fact that our membership numbers are down, so if anyone runs across any golfers 55 years of age or older who might be interested in joining, please tell them about our club. Also, it is with a heavy heart that we accept Dick Kohnman’s retirement from his Editorship of the Pars and Scars publication after umpteen years on the job. Dick suggested that maybe we should phase out the Pars & Scars. With the exception of member’s birthdays, all the rest of the pertinent information can be posted on the website. We’ll see how this works out. Thanks Dick for a job well done all these years. On a final note, at the luncheon someone suggested that we pass a local rule prohibiting any of our members from dying until we can bolster our membership.

Golf 5

The top golfer of today’s tournament was John Foss with a gross score of 81. The best net score was a 62 by yours truly. I think I’m starting to get the hang of this game. Anyway, way to go John.

DSC_1272(sm) DSC_1286(sm) These photos were taken a little over a year ago when rabbits frequented the T-box of hole #2. I began carrying carrots in my bag to feed the little guys.

Don’t forget about the luncheon next week at the Wedgewood immediately after Thursday’s tournament. Don’t miss out on the tasty eats.

Our top golfers for this week were Rich Karas with a gross score of 83. Von Williams had the best net score with a 64. Way to go guys.

Don’t forget about the meeting and luncheon to be held on Nov 12th at the Wedgewood. Also, don’t forget about the Sea Bee tournament on Monday Nov 9th. Previous notices had Nov 10th as the date, but it’s actually on the 9th. We also need more sign-ups for both of these activities. Just a reminder, November is our membership renewal month. Early renewals are greatly appreciated.

Next week we will be playing a Stableford Tournament. The scoring will be as follows:

Double bogie = 0 points
Bogie = 1 point
Par = 2 points
Birdie = 4 points
Eagle = 8 points

Congratulations go out to our winning foursome of today’s scramble. The team of Tapia, Smith, Charbonneau and Atmore ended the tournament 4 under par with a gross score of 64. Their net was 53. Way to go guys.

“A perfectly straight shot with a big club is a fluke.” — Jack Nicklous

Just a couple of reminders. Thurs. Nov. 12th is our club luncheon at the Wedgewood right after our weekly tournament. $ 6.00 is a good price for a nice deli-type sandwich. Don’t forget about the next “away” tournament at the SeaBee base on Nov 10th. It’s $ 35.00 at the door with $ 10.00 going to Ron Laufer. If you don’t have a base pass, you will need to apply for one ASAP since it takes about 2 weeks for it to be approved. This is the last away-tournament of the year. Next Thursday’s tournament will be a scramble.

Congratulations go out to our two top golfers of the week. Richard Guzik had the top gross score with a 78. Peter Wright had the best net score with a 61. Way to go guys.

“You must have long-range goals to keep you from being frustrated by short-term failures.” — Charles Noble

Four announcements:

1. The weekly tournament start time is going to remain 7:30am until further notice.

2. We are now accepting membership dues for the coming year. It’s easier all the way around if we can start processing the membership fees a little early. If you can help us out with this, it will be greatly appreciated.

3. During last week’s tournament, John Gonzales scored a hole-in-one on hole #5. This information was sent to me along with that week’s scores, but I was late in getting home and late in posting the scores so I didn’t scroll down far enough on the email sent to me that contained the scores and the notice of John’s H.I.O. For this I apologize. Congratulations go out to John. Hole-in-ones are few and far between and so we celebrate these rare occurrences by giving acknowledgement to the skilled golfer. Some say H.I.O.s are pure luck. I’ve always said, skill gets you close enough to enable Lady Luck to do her thing. John will be receiving a $ 100.00 check at our next tournament.
DSCN0066(sm) This is a photo of John that I had in my files. It was taken about a year ago.

4. The next away tournament will be on 11-10-15 at Naval Base Ventura County (the Seabee Base). The cost will be $ 35.00 at the door and an additional $ 10.00 going to Ron Laufer, our tournament chairman. The first T-time is set for 7:30 AM (0730 hours for all you military veterans). The sign-up sheet and applications-to-play will be available next Thursday.

The winners of this week’s tournament were: Steve Smith with the best gross score (80) and Charles McLaughlin with the best net score (59). Way to go guys.

Regards,
Bob Escobedo

Late post: We will be having luncheon at the Wedgewood after our golf tournament on Nov 12th. Phil Youker will be able to start collecting the fees beginning next Thursday.

“I never blame myself when I’m not hitting. I just blame the bat and if it keeps up, I change bats. After all, if I know it’s not my fault that I’m not hitting, how can I get mad at myself?” — Yogi Berra

I thought it was only fitting to find a quote from Yogi Berra since he just passed away. Not everything is said made sense (i.e. this quote), but he was a funny guy just the same.

Congratulations goes out to our top golf team of this month’s scramble. The team of Laufer, Obrien, Wright and Walker came in first with a gross score of 64 and a net of 52. Way to go guys.

Right below the results is a post that was sent to me by Dick Kohnmann regarding Joe Toy, one of our long-time members. He hasn’t been around lately because he stopped playing when he began to lose his eyesight, but he has attended some of our barbecues in the recent past. He will be 102 years old on Oct 20th.

Another Club Championship is complete. We took our place on the course, did the best that we could and now those golfers that prevailed as the winners of the tournament played over the last two Thursdays, have been declared. Congratulations go out to our top golfers. Richard Guzik is our new Club Champion in the Top-Gross-Score division, Jerry Workman took first place in the Super-Senior division and John Gonzales earned the first place prize in the Low-Net division. Way to go guys. An honorable mention goes out to Robert Charbonneau who had the best net score for today’s tournament with a 64.

$ 100.00). Top right: Jerry Workman (smiling because he also won $ 100.00). Bottom left: File photo of John Gonzales playing at Mountain View (happy because he won $ 50.00). On a side note, I wasn’t aware that our new Club Champion, Richard Guzik, had won this event 7 times previously (2002, 03, 05, 07, 08, 09 and 2012). Way to go Richard.

For those of you who weren’t at today’s golf tournament, Joe Henry announced that the Fall club barbecue slated for this Friday, has been cancelled due to a low turn out. We only had approximately 25 members sign up. In order to mitigate our expenses we need to have closer to 60. Maybe next time.
