IRS Wednesday Golf League Newsletter

Week 10 – July 1, 2020

Need to express the importance on scorecards: Team captains must reconcile cards before leaving the course and handed to, emailed, or text to League Secretary Charlie Halpin as soon as finished (no later than day of play 9 p.m.).  Best if as soon as finish round to verify your cards and get them to the secretary before you leave the course.  Again, scorecards can be handed to, emailed, or text to Charlie Halpin and it is best to receive double cards from teams since any errors can be resolved quicker.  Again, Team Captains/Team Members should verify scores before leaving the course and then get the scorecards to Charlie Halpin as soon as possible so the recap sheets can be completed.

Every week I will post this about carts and fees.  Green fees and cart fees are still being paid by the League Treasurer Chuck Reckers.  For those okay with riding 2 in a cart with teammates that is now acceptable and preferred.   For those who said they will walk but wish to change to walk front and ride back or ride both sides, you need to let the League Treasurer Chuck Reckers know by Tuesdays 6 p.m. so he can update his records and notify the course on number of carts we will need.  Also, if you are having a sub that is different on walk or ride you need to let Chuck know about that.  If a player wants to commit to ride the back or both sides Chuck will update his records and collect the cart fees as part of the second installment in mid to late July.  Reminder that no changing your mind at the course. 

Subs this past week:  Steve Ruehl (Team Bramlage), Shari Anderson (Team Harms), Mike Schwarberg (Team Kientz), and new sub Brian Taylor (Team Buescher).  Thanks for being there.

Seeding:

The season didn’t end yesterday, but if it ends tomorrow Seeding would look like this:

Number 1 Seed – Team Bachmann

Number 2 Seed – Team Bramlage

Number 3 Seed – Team Breen

Number 4 Seed – Team Flynn

Number 5 Seed – Team Schumacher

Number 6 Seed – Team Kientz

 

Note that posting this did bring bad luck to one team.  There still are 10 other teams that could make this list.

 

Thoughts to Ponder:

 

Yesterday I accidentally swallowed some food coloring.

The doctor says I'm OK, but I feel like I've dyed a little inside.

 

I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. Then it hit me.

 

Have you ever tried to eat a clock? It's very time consuming.

 

Did you hear about the guy who got hit in the head with a can of soda?

He was lucky it was a soft drink.

 

What did the grape say when it got stepped on? Nothing - but it let out a little whine.

 

Something about subtraction just doesn't add up.
