f not for our veterans, we might
not be able to enjoy the freedoms
we often take for granted, includ-
ing the ability to celebrate life at
Charbonneau. We have bid most of
the snowbirds goodbye till spring,
and those of us who enjoy our resort-
living here year-round are settling in
for the fall and winter, with the hope
that there will be enough rain-free
days to allow us to play golf through
the winter. It has been a terrific year
for CWGA and we can all take pride
in the camaraderie, fun and great golf
we played during the season — even
if the great golf was only in our
dreams.
As outgoing president, I have been
honored to lead the great group of
women who make up Charbonneau
Women’s Golf Association. During my
two terms, I have often said that being
president is the easiest job on the
board, thanks to the overwhelming tal-
ent and time that our members contrib-
ute to making our season of golf a suc-
cess. I think it is indicative of many as-
pects of life in Charbonneau, and for
this, I am truly grateful.
Stagette Celebrated “The Best
Day Ever”

Oct. 3, organized by Karen Miller and
Lynda Huber Marshall. Starting with
a shotgun scramble, the event was
supposed to transition into “Best Day
Ever” costumes and a horserace that
would lead into our annual meeting
and awards, dinner and entertain-
ment. With four holes left to play, a
clap of thunder in the distance and
heavy rain, had players “scrambling”
to finish the scramble before the light-
ning caught up with them. No one
wanted to play a horserace in a chilly
downpour, so Coleen Larson, organiz-
er of the horserace, regrouped and
turned it into a dice game, with cock-
tails and popcorn in The Turn. Con-
gratulations to the lucky winners, in-
cluding third place, Judy Wilcox and
Pat Struckman; second place, Kathie
Barton, Kathy Barr and Laurie Bales;
first place, Jackie Peters, Dana Rich-
mond and Sandy Spencer.
The annual meeting kicked off with

president Cathi McLain asking for ap-
proval of last year’s meeting minutes,
summary of the financial report, and
recognition of the amazing group of
committee chairs. Cathi also recog-
nized Ginnie Moir, whose name was
omitted from the Guest Day article in
last month’s Villager, and who was a
big part of Guest Day success. Karen
Miller and Lynda Huber Marshall an-
nounced the winners of the day’s
scramble and costume competition.
Tournament winners from the season
were recognized with personalized
bag tags. Handicap Chairs Charlotte
Nicholas and Diane Meyers an-
nounced the Most Improved Player for
the year and Day’s Play Chair Terry
Borst announced the Eclectic Winners
and awarded chip-in prize money for
the season.
The annual meeting ended with the
election of officers and the passing of
the gavel from Cathi McLain to new

president Joann Linville. The eve-
ning’s highlight was a performance by
The Niners and several numbers from
their annual variety show. Their fina-
le number of “You’ve Got a Friend”
from Toy Story earned a standing
ovation and a reminder that in Char-
bonneau, all golfers are FRIENDS.
