First 9 holes of golf using a Dropout Scramble format. 10:00 Start time.
Second there will be a lunch in the Cypress room for $16 all inclusive that will be billed to your COK account if you attend. No ordering off the regular menu. The menu will be:
Salad: Romaine Hearts and Mixed Greens with choice of toppings and dressings.
Soup: Tomato basil bisque and Chicken noodle.
Third there will be a Rules Clinic covering various important topics led by Dick Smith. We urge all to join in the fun of playing golf together with members you may not normally play with, socializing at lunch with good food and camaraderie, and then the opportunity to learn or review some USGA rules that we all need to be familiar with.
Next KWGA activity: Tuesday February 14
18 Hole League: President’s Cup Tournament (four-person team 3,2,1 format) and Luncheon (all-inclusive menu) at Lakeside Terrace honoring past Presidents of KWGA.

The Golf Classic supports the golf programs at Atascocita, Kingwood, Kingwood Park and Summer Creek High Schools. The goal of this event is to raise funds to help offset the cost of tournament fees, travel, and hosting expenses for the 170+ student golfers in the district.

Lost and Found
Found Tuesday Feb 7, Lake #17 a bumblebee marker and hat clip! If you lost it, text Joan Rendl 571-259-2240.
Saturday Play
If you are interested in being on (or off) the distribution list for playing on Saturday, email Kakie Palmer at kakiepalmer@gmail.com.
In order to play "legal" so that your score counts towards Year End awards and to receive course credit, you did not participate in the previous Tuesday playday (which includes starting but then withdrawing). There will need to be two "legal" players in a division (18 or 9) to count as a KWGA official Saturday Playday. Otherwise, you can play just for fun.
Last Saturday, the threesome of Kakie Palmer, Debbie Bradley, Joan Rendl each had a Birdie on Marsh hole 8. We thought that was amazing and awesome!
Second Ace of Aces Playday was Tuesday February 7
