BOD Meeting results

We had our first Board of Directors meeting for 2013 last night. I have listed some of the topics that were discussed. Please post comments below if you wish to voice your opinion.

• We discussed having 2 weekend trips plus a one day trip this year. The thought is that on one of the weekend trips we will schedule it close enough that those that want to play both days can and those that cannot make it for both days can join us either day. We have not identified a location yet, but hope to make a decision and post it soon.

• We would like to host or at least offer support for an annual tournament that we can grow into something special that benefits not only the MGA but Southern Hills Golf Club as well. We discussed a couple of options – a true Member/Guest event or an annual Tournament of Champions type of event. More on this later.

• We are close to pinning down the 2013 meeting schedule. We will most likely have a dinner meeting late March, followed by one in May, July, September, as well as an annual meeting in December. Check the website regularly to see the details.

• Changes to the way we pick teams for the weekly matches. It was suggested by several players that we should pick in order of handicap. We all want to make the process as fair as possible to all. The BOD voted to try something different for a while and see how it works out. Starting Sunday 2/17 we will pick teams in the order of handicap. What this means is that once the “pickers” are identified, the first pick will go to the player with the highest handicap, followed by the next highest handicap, and so on. Please post your comments below if you have an opinion on this.
