IRS Wednesday Golf League Newsletter

Week  11 – July 3, 2024

Latest news on Dale Schaber, he is doing well after his triple bypass surgery and is up and walking.  Here is hoping for his speedy recovery.

Welcome new player Ben Pugh who will be playing in Dale Schaber’s place.

The subs playing this week:  Tom Schumacher (Team Brian Anderson), Farlon Smith and Rafael Gonzalez (Team Buescher), Bob Norris (Team Bill Anderson), Dave Martin (Team Flynn), Jef Barnhorst and Steve Murphy (Team Crouch).

This week Team Bachmann played vs the vacant team.  They pulled Team 12 and did well.  Next week position round Team Ellsworth will compare scores vs 2nd place team in Division D.

Still happening: League Secretary is still finding errors on the score/recap sheets.  Most errors are not calculating the correct handicap strokes and giving strokes on the wrong holes.

Treasurer Chuck Reckers reports that there are still 4 regulars outstanding on second half of season dues/green fees.  Make checks payable to “IRS Golf League.”

Status of the Almighty Fork:

Warning: The ‘Fork’ is sharpened and ready for next week.  Position round will decide which teams will be Forked.  Could it be Team Halpin/Scott or Team Ellsworth or Team Brian Anderson or Team Crouch or Team Bill Anderson?  Things don’t look good for Team Halpin/Scott as they are on top of the upside down points list.

______________________

Mr. Bill, My gripe this week in fine print is the folks who leave their trash and empty beer cans on the table and are unable to clean up after themselves.  Wouldn’t be a gripe if they left a reasonable tip for the staff or me (tight asses).  Good note on this is I don’t have to live with those greedy pigs.
