Monday | 11:00 am - 5:00 pm Tuesday – Sunday | 7:00 am - 5:00 pm CAPTAIN’S MESSAGE Women’s Golf Events Welcome ladies! Seems like we wait so long for the rain to let up and the sun to shine…finally, we are there. As we begin 2014, I invite you to join us every Tuesday for some fantastic events as well as our tournaments – see event listing for additional information. Several things to remember: Be sure to frequently check the sign-up sheets in the Ladies Locker Room and at the Pro Shop desk. We don’t want you to miss an event. Also, continue to work on pace of play so that other golfers are not held up. Review the Rules of Golf and ask the Pro Shop if you have questions. Welcome new golfers and volunteer to help on our committees and teams. We need you all! To all women who can’t play on Tuesday but would like to join a fun group of Ladies on Saturday, contact Judy Weitz for more information at 206-940-4090. I look forward to playing with you. It is an honor to be your captain. - Peggy Upton, WGD Captain CAPTAIN’S CHARITY Tuesday, June 24 This year’s tournament is open to both members and non-members and will benefit “Cocoon House” in the Everett area. “Cocoon House” is a safe place for homeless teenagers. It provides warm food, housing for up to 100 teens, counseling and much more in an alcohol and drug free environment. The fundraiser for the Captain’s Charity will be a raffle.
