Oakmont News - February 15th, 2010

9-Hole Thursday Women's Club
Rebecca Wellman, Captain

RAIN, RAIN and more, and with the obvious Course closures, I find myself in a dilemma of having little to report since the February 1st edition.   The upside to limited golf days has been that we've moved forward on several tasks such as completion of our 2010 Roster Book and jump started the planning stages of several upcoming tournaments and luncheons.  On January 25th, Henni Williston and I attended a North Bay Women's Golf Association Board Meeting at Playa Azul.  Like PWGA and WRENS, North Bay is another avenue for us to experience golf at and with additional North Bay 9 and 18-hole ladies groups.   The Board Members of NBWGA have chosen August 12th at Oakmont as one of their Play Days and we are delighted as this Playday just happens to coincide with our most popular event of the year; The Niner Member/Guest Invitational and Luncheon.  Wouldn't you agree that this is a fabulous way to show off beautiful Oakmont, our Golf Courses, our Quail Inn and our dedicated Sections?   If you are not currently a member of NBWGA and are interested in joining, or if you have questions regarding NBWGA remember that Henni Williston is available to help you with both membership and questions.

In closing, I'd like to inform that I've been given good news by the Meteorologists that sunny days with much warmer temperatures are ahead; the downside to this prognosis is that these same geniuses aren't exactly sure when it will happen? 
Cheers!
