HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL MY GOLF BUDDIES, (ALL 4, I THINK)

 

I’VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT 2024 AND MAKING AN OBTAINABLE 

RESOLUTION:

FOR THE PAST EIGHT YEARS I’VE BEEN THE AXE MAN, HEADHUNTER,

BAH HUMBUG GUY, PARTY KILLER, YOU NAME IT, IF IT’S GOT ANYTHING

TO DO WITH DROPPING THE HAMMER IT WAS ME.  WELL IT’S THE NEW

JOHNNY FOR 2024.  A SMILING FACE, OUTSTRETCHED HAND AND A

CHEERFUL GREETING IS ALL THAT WILL COME FROM ME STARTING

JANUARY 1^ST, BUT I WILL NEED YOUR HELP TO MAKE THIS RESOLUTION

WORK.

1. IF YOU PAY WHEN YOU SIGN-UP YOU’LL NEVER HEAR FROM ME.
2. IF YOU COORDINATE YOUR PARTNER AND FOURSOME AHEAD OF

TIME YOU’LL NEVER HEAR FROM ME.

3. IF YOU PAY YOUR ANNUAL DUES WHEN SCGA ASK YOU TO YOU’LL

NEVER HEAR FROM ME.

 

AS YOU CAN SEE IT’S FAIRLY EASY TO AVOID THE PRE ’24 SIDE OF ME.

SO LOOK FOR THAT EXTENDED HAND AT THE CHECK-IN TABLE.

 

SMOK’EM IF YOU GOT’EM,

 

JOHN

 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to my fellow golfers,

 

Hope your golf year was a good one.  The 2024 LACFGA schedule has been posted on our website.  Mark your calendars and plan ahead for another great year of golf.  2024 takes us to 6 private and 6 public courses.  We will be returning to some of our past favorites; Eagle Glen C.C. - which will be more playable with a choice of senior tees (less carry off the tees), Glen Ivy Golf Club - under new management and Sierra Lakes - which is now back to having tournaments and shotgun starts.

On  December 11th, with a 9:00 shotgun, LACFGA will be back at Alta Vista Country Club for our Monthly Play and Christmas Banquet.  The Open players will be playing the White tees at 5999 yards 69.0/124 slope and the Senior players will be playing the Red tees at 5523 yards 66.9/118 slope.  The snack shop will be open for breakfast and during the round.  There will be a beverage cart on the course.  The driving range and practice green will be open, range balls ARE included with your entry fee.  Also included with your entry fee is the Christmas Banquet, Alta Vista C.C. puts on a great spread for us so plan on hanging out with your golf buddies and breaking bread with them.

As Ward mentioned, after the Alta Vista tournament is our end of the year banquet.  We would really like to pay out the winners from this event at the banquet, but I will need your help to make this happen.  If ALL groups will use the Golf Genius scoring we can do it.  Each month we have anywhere from 2 - 6 groups that do not use Golf Genius scoring, which delays the results getting out.  For a Golf Genius instruction page, which in on our website, click HERE.

 

Registration for the January Monthly Play at Huntington Club is open.
