Year End Scramble:

Just a reminder that the September 2nd Year End Scramble is a pre-paid night. All league members have already paid their greens fees for this night. As such, Chuck will be paying California Golf Course 64 greens fees for that night.

1) For the semi-finalists, the League will pay your semi-final (front 9) greens fees. You will pay California the marginal fee for the extra nine holes and cart fee, if applicable. Ultimately, you will be playing 18 holes on September 2, either as a finalist on the back nine or a scrambler on the front nine. (Note: the 9 hole gift certificate can be used for the extra 9 holes.)

2) For the other 12 league teams, your greens fees for the scramble have been paid to the League already.

3) Skins will be on a Team basis ($10.00). Sign-up sheet will be at the clubhouse.
