Thanks to all the folks who commented on the future of
the Friends and Fairways golf group. There seems to be a general
consensus to keep the group going, but pared back due to costs and
crowds.
With that in
mind, we thought a good resolution would be to keep our general Saturday
late-morning framework for one weekend a month, rather than all
weekends, and limit our play to the cooler months between September and
April. That way, we can choose more upscale courses for our more
limited weekend outings without breaking the bank.
We
can try this on a trial basis until the summer, then decide if we want
to keep the framework for the fall and winter. Implementing this
requires volunteers for January, February, March and April. Each
volunteer would choose one Saturday in the requested month, arrange for
three or four tee times by Monday before the Saturday play day, forward
the information for me to circulate on that Monday, handle the requests
to play, and monitor (or delegate) attendance at the actual play date.
Just like now. Let's see how this works and revise as needed later.
Please
send me your desired month and I'll circulate the list of volunteers.
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
