CLOSING SOCIAL MINUTES
October 4, 2012

The Ben Lomond Thursday Ladies Golf Association held the 2012 season closing social at the Ben Lomond Club House.

Chris Williams welcomed everyone.  She thanked the table decoration committee and all the support the members have offered throughout the season.  Everyone thanked Chris and Craig Williams for the salmon dinner donation.

Prior to the Closing Social dinner, the Presidency and Gayle Dalpias met with Jeff Cliften to discuss some of the Association Bylaws.  They are as follows:

1.       A new approach to the Tournament Chairperson duties was discussed.  Jeff Cliften, Pro at BL Pro Shop, and Association Tournament Co-Chairperson for 2013, Tina Mildon, would accept the duties.  The weekly tournament process would consist of each woman paying for their golf fees at the Golf Course pro shop along with $4 for 18-hole or $2 for 9-hole tournaments.  The Association Tournament Co-Chairperson would have each woman draw a card to determine the 3- or 4-some they would play with for the day.  At the end of each weekly tournament, the Pro at the Pro shop would process the scores to determine the weekly winners of the 9-hole tournament and would return $2 per golfer to the Association Tournament Co-Chairperson.  The Association Tournament Co-Chairperson would process the 18-hole winners and payout, along with responsibility for Ringer board, birdie, and chip in payouts at the end of the season. The 9-hole winners would have weekly access to their prize money from the pro shop or the balance maintained on the computer to use at a later date. These prizes would consist of $10 for 1st place and $5 for 2nd place for each flight. The weekly 18-hole winners would receive cash at the following monthly luncheon date.

2.      The Member/Guest Tournament was discussed.  It was passed that Jeff could provide the Association with a handicap for a woman who did not have a UGA card and handicap.  They could bring 3 score cards from previous play or a handicap could be figured out with the score from the Member/Guest play of the day.  Any member/member teams would be charged double for the entry fee (prize money) in order to discourage this type of Member/Guest team.  Prior to the day of the Tournament, the Presidency could advertise at the Northern tournament play or other Associations could be called to scout out guests for members without guests for the tournament.

3.      The Club Championship Tournament was discussed.  There was a motion to change the play days from Wednesday/Thursday of the same week to Thursday/Thursday which would mean the Tournament would be played in a combination of 2 weeks.  The motion was seconded and voted upon.  The Thursday/Thursday option passed.  It will be scheduled as such next year to see how it works out.

4.      The number of players to determine a tournament was changed to 6 players (from 8).

Putts money will be deposited into the Association checking account to be held until next year when a larger donation can be made to an organization in need.


Tina presented the prizes for September; also:
Red and Blue Tournament winners: Red team
Most improved golfer: Sheila Jaques
Ringer Board winners: 1st flight 1st place: Pam Douglas; 
                                                     2nd place: Sheila Jaques;
                                  2nd flight (tie): Brigitte Schultz 
                                                           and Gayle Dalpias

Chris presented Tina with a gift for her fine work as Tournament Chairperson and as the recipient of the Club Champion title for the 2012 season.  Tina was presented her trophy at the September luncheon.  Tina’s name was added to a new nameplate for the perpetual Club Champion recognition plaque and was also mounted in the club house.

After a request for nominations and second for the Vice President office, the Officers for the 2013 season were announced:
            President:  Brigitte Schultz
            Vice President:  Gayle Dalpias
            Secretary/Treasurer:  Kay Farnsworth
            Tournament Chairpersons: Tina Mildon/Jeff Cliften
            Historians:  Dixie Morse
            Northern Association Representatives: Sheila Jaques
                                                                           and Doris Eager
