LEAGUE INFO…
Recap…
Tuesday, June 12th was the ninth official week of the DUFFERS 2007
season. With perfect sunny skies and
80-degree temperatures The Duffers made there way to the first tee box. Yesterday’s attendance was pretty good with 49
(3 pre-play) of 57 members
(86%) and 6 guests enjoying the near perfect conditions of
Creekwood Country Club.
Member attendance for the year remains 89%, while total attendance,
including guests and make-up rounds remains an EXCELLENT 98%.
As a result
of Rules Committee deliberations, KnockDown
#1 results are OFFICIAL and WEEKLY POINTS TABULATIONS have resumed.
Also, Pre-Play
has been defined as “Any round started before 4:00 Tuesday.

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.

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…

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.
6+5+5+4+5+6+5+5+6 = 47 not 46 – Pete Cloherty
Denny Scheelk – for PREMATURELY circling his birdie on the SKIN SHEET
and an unknown MORON who put four quarters in the Skin Box.
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
