July News
GOLF
Our club tourney was held 6/23 & 6/24. We had 35 people qualify Saturday despite some rain and 33 played Sunday. Bill Corrick is once again our club champion and Larry Bentler a close second. The flight winners were as follows-1st flight John Roloff-2nd flight Ron Dorothy-3rd flight Jim Kindle. Congrats to the winners and thanks to everybody who played . Next up is our 4th of July potluck. We’ll start at 11 a.m. and play 18 holes of 4-person best shot.
Sign up single, double, or as a team. We’ll eat when we’re finished-you bring side dishes and we’ll cook the burgers, dogs, and brats! Our annual 4-couple best shot is scheduled for 7/15. It’s 4 guys and 4 gals-alternating best shot. Tee time is 10 a.m. and cost is $30 per couple. Sign up at the pro shop now. On 7/21 the annual Heston Memorial tourney will be held. This one is 2 shifts-morning or afternoon and a huge local fund raiser. This is a 3 person best shot and additional details are available at the pro shop. The Elks will have their annual youth tourney 7/24. Details are available at the Elks club.
Our cart path project has been delayed a couple weeks due to the weather-it should happen in July. As you recall, Vi Pearce generously donated the money for the west portion of the path, and our contractor, John Brewington, is donating the labor for the east side. Now it’s your turn to help-PLEASE! We’d like to try and raise the cost of the concrete for the east side thru your donations!
Ideal concrete has quoted us a reduced cost of $71 a yard and it’s about 30 yards. I’ve got 6 pledges for a yard already-I’m calling it “It’s not hard-buy a yard!” So make your pledge now. Contact me or your favorite board member. I’d love to do the other causeway next year-if we raise extra dough, we’ll start saving for that project! Here’s my complaint department for this month. Please watch your parking in the cart sheds. Be kind to your neighbor. These spots are not large-put your cart in as straight as possible. Please watch for the wet spots on the golf course after heavy rains. Our golf course is in great shape-let’s keep it that way! Stay out of the ditch on #4 and don’t drive thru standing water. Our tab system in the bar is being somewhat abused-tabs should be paid daily Thank you!
Dean and Jeanette Edwards would like to thank all their Walton friends who responded with calls, cards, and well wishes during their 50th wedding anniversary celebration!
Here’s an update from your Walton board- Here is a look at what the board has been discussing over the last several months. There will be some work done to the access road leading to the backside of the course as well as continued work on ladies #6 tee box. The men’s restroom is undergoing a lot of change and is looking great. The club is now offering a “Grill your Own” option for when the kitchen is closed using the grill on the patio. Please see the bartender for our menu. A new water cooler has been installed in the shelter on #5. The board approved a raise in the drink prices. Please see a board member or Kirk with any suggestions or concerns that you may have.
