RALLY FOR A CURE TOURNAMENT
​The Rally for the Cure Tournament is October 25, 2016 at 0900.  We are checking in from 0830 to 0855.  The cost of play is $20. Paid to Susan B Komen Foundation.  We are playing a team scramble, with the teams set by the JRCC pros.  It will be a shot-gun start.  

• Players can sign up at the Pro Shop.  the sign-up sheet is on the  window at the Shop. All money is due on 10/25.   One interesting thing about the Rally is that there are magazine subscriptions that will be sent to the players.  Read the sign-up sheet for the choices.

•   Luncheon is planned after the play concludes.  Call the main office of the Club to let the Club know if you would like to have lunch with us.  The cost of the lunch will be about $12.95 as usual.

And Please join the WGA for its
ANNUAL TURKEY SHOOT   ​

• November 1, 2016 9 a.m.  Its the last event of the year.

• 4 person Captains Choice; Pairings will be done by the Pro Shoppe using our handicaps.

• There will be prizes for all our accomplishments, many new.

• Please sign up at the Pro Shoppe as soon as possible so we can reserve a place for you!

​

• Sunday, November 6th.  The time is 2:30 (this early time is because we are off Daylight Savings Time and as you can tell, sunset seems to be so much earlier every day). 

• We will probably finish by 4:30 or 4:45, go in and have some drinks (it is 5:00 somewhere!), and eat supper between 5:30 and 6:00. 

• The menu is being carried over from October:  Salad, Brunswick Stew, Ham Biscuits, Fried Apples and Lemon Squares & Chocolate Chip Brownies for dessert.

• Since Hurricane Matthew squelched October’s Member/Member-Member/Guest, we are able to re-invite our guests for November.  Bring your friends whether they are Club members or not.

• Last Member/Guest, we had 80 players.  Let us see if we can match that number! As usual, if you can’t get to the Club to sign up, you may call the Pro Shop (596-3112) or call, text (810-9515) or email Lyn at (lynjhawk@cox.net)

State Team Matches Concluded

JRCC women sent six golfers to Princess Anne this week to compete for the first time in a few years:
Sandy Schuler
Jennifer Stevens
Becky Kelly
Mona Mazonkey
Deborah Phillips
Joan Verhoef

The aggregate handicap placed JRCC in the second of five flights.  After stroke play on Tuesday JRCC Women were in last place in the flight and moved on to challenge first place Cavalier Country Club in Match Play completion.  Unfortunately unable to win enough points in matches to move on to the finals Wednesday. 

The course and greens were challenging as were the fly overs, and the roads criss-crossing the course!  The completion was very good and inspiring.  Jeremy Frank's attended the tournament and provided great moral and technical support.  There is talk to play more team events in the coming year and be prepared to represent JRCC again next year!
