Fwd: CGA Par 3-Monday August 19, 2019 at 5pm-Deerfield CC
Our annual Par 3 is Monday August 19th at 5pm at Deerfield CC. This year I hope we can play 18 holes instead of 9. We will give away $250 worth of gift cards to various restaurants that evening. I would like to take a survey of members to see how many plan to take part in this outing so we can let Deerfield CC know what to plan for. Please drop me an email by August 15th if you plan to take part that day. This will be a play your own ball with a max score of 5 on any hole. Please let me know.
Thanks

Good Sunday morning. A couple of things before I head out to church services.
Our annual Par 3 is scheduled for Tuesday July 30th at Apple Valley near Fairmont. We are playing a regular outing at noon that day followed by the Par 3 at 5:30p. You can enter either one or both. So far I have the following:
Mike Hinkle-Both
Larry Wamsley-Both
Ron Bentley-Both
Ron Hurst-Both

I would love to have a good turnout for the Par 3 outing. We give away gift cards for prizes and I hope for a good turnout. If you are not going to Pipestem this week you will need to enter the July 30th outing by email or phone 472-4047. Let me know if you plan to play both or the regular or Par 3 when you enter. I need to set the deadline for this Saturday July 27th. If we need to make any changes to schedule I will let you know.
One final thing for today. We are planning a Picnic/Miniature Golf outing on Sunday August 18th. We would meet to eat around 2pm and play 36 holes of miniature golf around 3pm. I have the course at Fairmont scheduled but found a much nicer miniature golf course in Morgantown. This day is open for you to bring your families to take part in a picnic and join us for the miniature golf outing. I need to make a list of those who will take part in this activity to see if there is enough interest. The cost to golf at either place is around $10 for 36 holes and each person could bring a covered dish to share. I will start a signup sheet this week at Pipestem and you can also signup by email or phone.
Thanks and God bless
