LEAGUE INFO…
Recap…
Tuesday, June 5th was the eighth official week of the DUFFERS 2007
season. With the gray and cold
55-degree skies, yesterday’s attendance was better than expected with 48 (1
pre-play) of 57 members
(84%) and 4 guests making their way to the tenth tee.
Member attendance for the year has dropped back to 89%, while total
attendance, including guests and make-up rounds remains an EXCELLENT 98%.
KnockDown #1 results are UNOFFICIAL
and all WEEKLY
POINTS TABULATION has STOPPED and been put on hold while we
await our Rules Committee
(Dave Gedeon, Pete White, and Mickey Lima) to wrap up a current issue.
FYI… to new members and as a reminder to established Duffers,
Current rules states that…. “KnockDown Bonus Points can only be awarded to
those attending regularly scheduled Tuesday events.”
MAKE-UP ROUNDS reported for Wk #07
NONE
MEMBERS WHO MISSED Wk #08 were…

REMEMBER, you have one week to play your make-up round. You must play the same side
that the league was originally scheduled to play. Turn your scorecards in to a Creekwood Clubhouse Counter Staff
Member, asking them to place it in the Duffer File, or give it to Stanny
personally on Tuesday.
’07 Scheduled Events…
Here are the tentative dates (weather permitting) for this year’s Duffer
Events.
Fun Nites…
#’s 2 & 3 are June 26th, and August 14th.
KnockDowns…
Remaining KnockDowns are scheduled for:
July 3rd (back 9), August 7th (front 9),
and Sept. 11th (back 9).
The second
“Glenn McLaughlin Summer Solstice” Bonus Points Tournament…
scheduled for June 19th most likely will not be played. The size of our league and time restraints
with the leagues opposite The Duffers makes this event
impossible at this time. However, the
Summer Solstice still affords you a great opportunity to get in 18 holes,
should you so desire.
Final Outing…
The Final Outing is being held Saturday, Sept. 15th,
9:00, at Creekwood Golf Course. Mark
your calendars now!
FYI, we
will be enjoying a steak roast with all the trimmings, catered by Alexander’s.
Skin News…
Our Skin Committee members are: Frank Bago, Patrick Keaton, Todd Cramer, Mickey Lima,
and Gerry Rapp.
Their duties are to: ENCOURAGE participation from both members
and guests, ensure correct sign-in and tabulation, watch and sort the
money, ensure there is no ‘after posting’, assist in score keeping,
and help with prize money distribution.
If you have any suggestions or ideas about how the Skin Game can be run
more efficiently please see one of them or Stanny.
RESULTS for
Wk #08
we had 45 out of the 51 players (88%) in the game for a pot of $226???
Those not playing were:
Pat Anderson III
Allan Bass
Jim Martin
Scott Wickham (guest)
and two unknown guests
Hey
guys… it’s just like the lotto, ‘you can’t win if you don’t PLAY!
Please, encourage your guests to participate in the Skin
Game! After all, they are taking away valuable
tee times from other “dues paying members”.
Thi$ week$
money winner$ were…
Low Net (28)
– Larry Lahiff – $44
Pin #12 – Mike Kennedy – $44
Pin #17
– Dave Gedeon – $44
Three Skins
were out @ $29 each…
#12 – birdie – Pete White
#13 – birdie – John Toth
#18 – birdie – Rob Sibley
Tradition
dictates that the winners buy the drinks, or be heckled miserably!
NOTE… PLEASE DON’T PREMATURELY CIRCLE YOUR BIRDIES ON THE SKIN SHEET! It’s a pretty television graphic
presentation BUT it makes it VERY DIFFICULT to see the TRUE SKINS!
MORON’S
CORNER… (Formerly JETHRO CIPHERS)
This is the spot where I will highlight (low light) the SPECIAL
skills of Duffers and their simplistic mathematic disabilities.
9+9+10+10+7+8+6+6+4 = 69 not 68 – Josh Bunevich
6+5+4+5+5+5+6+3+3 = 42 not 43 – Rob Sibley
55-17 = 38 not 39 – Paul Scott
a friendly REMINDER…
It is each and every
member’s personal responsibility to insure that his own score is CORRECTLY
recorded (both gross and net) on the weekly skin / work
sheet. Even
though you may not have been the person keeping score for the foursome, it is
your duty to insure that it was done correctly! Do it
right and you won’t end up listed in the “Moron’s Corner”!
NOTE: If you wish to be considered for the ‘net’ portion of the ‘Skin
Game’, the ‘net score box’ must be properly filled in.
CREEKWOOD
DAY…
Our friends at Creekwood G.C. are celebrating their 47th
anniversary, Saturday June 23rd.

kraut, rigatoni, salad, and all the trimmings. Deadline for payment is Tuesday June 12th. See
Lisa, in the clubhouse, to sign-up or if you have any questions.
LARRY LAHIFF'S SKIN

h the summer holiday weekends and
play a round of golf with friends at one of the areas FINEST golf courses.
