Notes From The Bridge...

WELCOME 2008 !

Due to Gary’s (our cook) recent illness and my time spent in the kitchen, these notes will be very brief!

On the back of this month’s newsletter and also here, you will find this year’s dues schedule. Golf memberships do have a discount if paid by Jan. 31. If you intend to use either the two or four payment plan, your first payment is also due by Jan. 31.

Our social committee is up and functioning. Look for a lot of fun stuff upcoming. Super bowling will happen again this year. Super Bowl Sunday is Feb. 3 and we’ll have our annual 9-pin bowling tourney at 1:00 p.m. followed by a party at the clubhouse. You can sign up for bowling as a single, couple, or a team. The cost is $10 per person. Please bring you favorite football snack for the clubhouse party. We will have hotdogs at the bowling alley.
Bear will run a poker tourney at the club Jan. 26. Check with him for details.


Special thanks this month to Dee Zillman and Joanne Hersh for decorating the clubhouse for Christmas. Thanks girls!
