Hey
Duffer,
It’s getting to be that time of year again, “Duffers 2006”
is right around the corner. Soon we
will be enjoying pleasant, sunny, warm Tuesday evenings at Creekwood Country
Club. I’m writing to invite you to
attend The Duffers Annual Spring Kick Off Meeting, being held Sunday, March
26th, 2006, 12:00 noon, at the Creekwood Club House. Golf, if you are interested, will follow the meeting, weather
permitting.
Let
me remind you that this is your only opportunity to determine league
policy for the up-coming season and that you need not be present to be voted
onto a committee or elected to serve as a league officer.
As usual, all Topics are
open to discussion, including these same old
standards…
President…
Candidates must exhibit a
genuine interest in the betterment of ‘The Duffers’ and a desire to be
involved and assist with most League activities.
Secretary…
Candidates should possess
organizational and mathematical skills, a love of the game, better than
average understanding of the rules, and a real interest in the betterment of
‘The Duffers’.
Treasurer…
Candidates should be ‘trust
worthy’, have good attendance, especially early in the season, and be
able to interact well with his fellow league members.
Fun
Night…
Members organize food,
beverages, and games for the ‘Fun Night’ activities.
Outing…

Outing’ by planning games and activities, placing and picking up prize placards,
collecting last minute skin monies, and assisting with the
scoring.
Rules…
Members officiate any rules
disputes that might arise during league play.

Other topics up for discussion this year are...
Should the existing
tournaments, rules, and procedures be continued as is, or adjusted? Should League dues remain $100
and be paid-in-full by the first official week of play, April
25th? Should the
points-for-pay procedure and visitor policy regarding the 'Skin Game' and the Fianal Outing be retained?
If

at the meeting. . FYI Practice rounds begin April
4th; with the first official play date being April

hope you’ve had a good and prosperous winter, and look forward to seeing you
again soon. As in years past, if I
do not hear from you, I will assume that you will NOT be playing this year. Sincerely,
John
Stanbrook
