POSTING AWAY SCORES: Whenever possible you should post your away score at the course played. If for some reason you can't post there, put your scorecard in an envelope and leave at our pro shop for our handicap chairman Chuck Koscielski. He needs your name, SCGA number, course played, date played and which tees you played from. Put Chuck's name on the envelope or just put Handicap Chairman.

BEAT THE PRO

The pro shot 77 on Wednesday, March 7^th. Almost everyone who posted a score won. The few who didn't will not be named. Next "Beat the Pro" tournament will be Wednesday, April 4^th. Sign up at the front counter by placing $5.00 to $25.00 in a separate envelope and post your score at the front counter of the pro shop at the end of your round. If your net score is lower than the pro's gross score, you win double your bet. If you lose, your gift certificate will be equal to your original wager.
