2010 Season Tees Off! 

2010 Tee OffMore than 100 returning and prospective members braved a rainy morning March 13 to kick off the Chapter's new season at our annual Tee Off Brunch at the Madison in Covington.

 

Enjoying mimosas and a delicious buffet, attendees previewed our 2010 season and took advantage of early-bird league registration.

 

Also on hand were sponsors Golf Chic Boutique (which brought the store to the floor and offered us great deals!) and Hamilton County Parks District (whose teaching pros donated free lessons for a special drawing!). 

 

Thanks to Social Chair Sally VonGundy and her team for a great event!

Members at GolfpaloozaGolfpalooza 

On the heels of March Madness, our Chapter's own "Sweet Sixteen" were in Pinehurst last week for EWGA's "Golfpalooza"...formerly known as the Annual Conference.

 

Cincinnati's contingent was larger than any other Chapter's and made quite an impression -- especially as they represented the Queen City in these marvelously masqued red-and-black ensembles for Thursday night's Partypalooza!

 

The four-day conference included lots of golf and EWGA camraderie, and a chance to meet Annika Sorenstam, who received EWGA's 2009 Leadership Award at Saturday's Awards Gala.

League Registration Update

We're happy to report Blue Ash (Tues), Reeves and Vineyard (Tues) leagues are full, but there are still openings in all the others -- some of which have deadlines coming up: Glenview (Apr 16); The Mill (Apr 19); Aston Oaks (Apr 19).

 

Don't miss out on a league experience this season! Register now for any of those three or others that are still open: Avon Fields, Blue Ash (Fri), Circling Hills, Kenton County, and Meadow Links.

 

If your first choice league is full, add your name to Wait List and/or sign up as a League Sub. The sooner we can seen what our needs are, the more quickly we can approach the courses to see about adding or giving up tee times to try to accommodate everyone!

 

Girls Golf U

Girls Golf UA new program aimed at filling the instructional and inspirational gap for 12-17-year-old girls who aspire to play middle school, high school and/or college golf is being piloted by Hamilton County Parks District -- with help from EWGA Cincinnati.

 

Led by PGA Teaching Pro Melissa Yeazell at Meadow Links & Golf Academy, the 2010 Girls Golf U program is a series of one-hour instructional clinics followed by a half-hour talk/Q&A with a role-model woman from the community.

 

EWGA was instrumental in arranging for one of the clinics to be held the week of the Teva Championship with instruction and inspiration coming from a group of Teva players. Chapter support also will include volunteer opportunities and fundraising to purchase tickets for Girls Golf U participants to attend the Teva Championship.  Click on the logo.
