July 10th- Odd/Even

Congrats to Janis Turner in her recent cake decorating certification to teach the artistic skill.  We are always willing and thrilled to test taste her homework.  Those of you were not here today, you missed a treat.  (Yes, Cheryl Drewyer, I ate my piece and yours!)  Tee hee

Considering it was a West GA and playday it was remarkably calm and organized today.  There were not many men playing today.  I guess the idea of so many women in one place scared them away.  The White Oak ladies fared quite well today in the West GA Cat Fight.  Those from our club who placed are
Jennifer Pierson- +11
Irene Drage- +5
Pat Gray- +4
Jane Buck- +4
Patti Wall- +3
Margaret Choi- +3
Susan Clonts- +2
Marsha Mauldin-+2
Karen Borg- +2
Mary Carlson- +2

Here are the results from Odd/Even today.
50/50 went to Judy Bice
Free Lesson went to Tita Bautista

Ladies, next week the format is supposed to be Beat the Pro as a reschedule.  Sean informed me that some of the staff will be on vacation and he will be short staffed.  Format will go back to what is in handbook,
Best 9 front or back.  It is also Guest Day next week.

You will have two more playdays to turn in a teddy bear which will be donated to Red Cross to give to children of catastrophic events such as fire.  Request is for it to be less than 15 inches, new with or without tag, and not the beanie bag type.  This is completely optional.  See previous blog posts for more information regarding this.

Sister Cup-Save the Date

It's almost time for our annual Sister Cup!

Joan Land is ready to sign you up! 

August 14 is the date and we will be at White Oak this year. 

We will have sign ups on playday or you can email Joan at

Taylor Bears

Jodie Shepard's grandaughter, Taylor Shepard, (pictured above) has an upcoming birthday.  She is a very loving and thoughtful little almost 7 yr. old.  This year she is asking those near and dear to her to give a new teddy bear which will be donated to the Red Cross to give to children of disasters, mainly fire victims.  

Taylor's mom has started a blog which details the generous effort.  If you would like to read more about it the blog address is  taylor4president.wordpress.com

If any of you would like to make a teddy bear donation here is the criteria:

• New with or without tag
• Must not be bigger than 15 inches
• Not a beanie baby

Please do not feel pressured in doing this.  I am just an aunt helping out a sweet grand niece.  Her birthday gathering is on July 26 so we have two playdays before I will be taking them to her.

Eagle Time

Congrats to Hesper Hall on her eagle Sunday!  She was playing with Dick and Bev Morris on Old Course and was 80 or 90 yards out on #17 and watched her approach shot go in the hole!  How exciting for her!  Too bad it wasn't on playday!  

Celebrate the Red, White, and Blue on July 3rd
