LETTER FROM THE MEN ’ S GOLF ASSOCIATION
One thing all golfers appreciate is more daylight . Our season is here ! The MGA has had two great events so far this year . Our most recent , the Member – Member set a record for the number of participants . It was also a learning curve as the reverse shamble was not a hit with most of our golfers . Additionally , it did not work with the Golf Genuis software so this created more work for our Golf Pro . Needless to say this format will not be used moving forward . Pay outs were increased , we had four $ 40.00 closest to the pin and our 50 / 50 brought in $ 1,540.00 . Rick Condon went home with a little extra in his pocket , $ 770.00 to be exact as the winner of the drawing
Our next event will be April 20th , a 4 Man Team ( ABCD ) 2 Best Balls , 2 Holes on Each Green Tournament . This is one of our most popular events . Sign-up sheet is available now , be sure to register by Thursday , April 18th . All participants will receive a complimentary gift card for Champs Sports Bar courtesy of proprietor and MGA member Cary Liptak . We greatly appreciate his support .
The biggest event each year is the Eaglebrooke Member Guest . The MGA will once again be hosting the Calcutta . This year ’ s event will be held on Thursday , May 2nd at 6PM in the banquet room . This event is not sanctioned or sponsored by Eaglebrooke and falls completely under the responsibility of the MGA . Last year this event provided an extra $ 39,410.00 in winnings . To help cover the expenses and ensure a most successful event , we will be offering tee signs that will be displayed all three days of the Member / Guest tournament . Each sign will be $ 100.00 and can be personalized to showcase businesses or individuals . You do not need to be a MGA member to purchase a tee sign . Orders can be placed with Rod Davis , Tim Milcich or you can pick-up a form in the Pro Shop . Payments can be in cash or check made out to Eaglebrooke MGA and left in an envelope with the Pro Shop staff . We really need support for this event , last year we ran out of food early . Ryan Roberts has agreed to provide all food for our event at cost . Working together we can raise enough money to make this a most memorable event for our membership and guests .
Finally , we would like to recognize our sponsors for our March event . Lopez & Humphries P . A ., Carrabba ’ s , Champs Sports Bar , Ultra Cryo , Stretch Zone and Sports Clips .
As always , much appreciation to our members , the Eaglebrooke staff , and our sponsors . Don ’ t forget to follow our new facebook page : https :// www . facebook . com / search / top ? q = eaglebrooke % 20mga
