Minutes Tournament Chairman Thanks to all of you that joined us for our annual Christmas Tourney. The Weather was cold but the rain held out until the Tournament was completed. I cannot say the same for the Derby’s. After the Tournament was completed A few brave soles ventured out into the rain, (I can’t believe we did that). It rained for a couple of holes but we were able to finish and remain relatively dry. I would like to again thank the Board members and all others for there support, it could not have happened without the many hours that it takes to put on this Tournament. Thanks Again. I have posted the winning team on the website and the results are in the newsletter, congratulations to all of you that cashed, I hope that everyone had a great time. Rich Dennison will be the Tournament Director next year; He has already taken sign ups for the January Tournament at the December meeting. If you are not in the Tournament and wish to get on the list give him a call. I hope that each
of you had an enjoyable Holiday season and Happy New Year; I look forward to
next year as your President. Best wishes to all Tom Link The
monthly meeting was held December 9, 2003 under the El Dorado Park Golf Course
restaurant auxiliary tent.
The restaurant offered a combination of pasta dishes for your generous
donation of $6.
President Bob Livingstone called the meeting to order at 7:05 p.m. and
led membership in allegiance to our flag. Past
Presidents in attendance: Tom Conlisk, Richard Scoville, Steve Shure, Don
Marmion, Ray McElhenney, Mike Montgomery, and Greg O’Brien. Our
life membership group consisted of Bob Livingstone and Fred Gibson. The
minutes from the last meeting and Treasurer’s report as printed in the
newsletter were accepted. Several
new members introduced themselves and went on the introductory tour with Greg
O’Brien. Rick
Evans thanked everyone for the support that has been provided this year.
We have sold so many tickets for tonight’s raffle that Dennis Tramer
needed to be sent to get more. It
was reported that someone with a Chevy Malibu in the parking lot has left the
lights on. Committee
Reports: Ray
McElhenney – Commissioner: A report has been placed in this month’s
Newsletter. No one had any questions. Jerry
Leininger – Handicaps: Effective December 1 we will be on-line with SCGA for
posting of our scores.
If you make a mistake in posting be sure to contact Jerry immediately so
proper correction can be made. Nick
Zamora – Entertainment: We have some new courses to play next year.
February 1, Super Bowl Sunday, is scheduled for our first away trip.
Nick is trying to change that date with the course.
Be sure to sign up for the away trips as a single or with a group.
Away trips are always a lot of fun. Mike
Marmer – Rules: A lot of changes have been made in the 2004 Rules.
Supposedly they are to make the rules easier to read and understand.
Mike handed out sheets that covered the spectrum of the changes (clubs,
loose impediments, etiquette, claims and disputes, amateur status, and immovable
obstructions).
Most of the changes are with the wording.
Mike welcomed Mel Collins into the Rules Chair position.
Mel will have this duty for 2004. Rick
Evans called for the tickets in the crowd that have “eagle”, “birdie”
and “par” marked on their back side.
Bill Jackson had the eagle for $15 and Ed Fernandez had the birdie for
$10.
No one claimed the par ticket. Rich

We started with 64 players.
The winners and runners up are as follows: President
Cup; Bob Livingstone and Mel Collins Vice

Derbies will follow the regular tournament.
Tom went on to identify who was running the derbies and inquired if spots
were still available.
It was noted that anyone playing in a derby must have also been playing
in the Christmas tournament. President
Livingstone asked the winners of the El Dorado Cup to meet off to the side to
get pictures taken with their plaques. New
Business – Jerry Leininger informed the Club that SCGA is in the process of
identifying its’ members who have multiple association affiliations (i.e. NCGA,
etc…) in order to incorporate them into the real-time score posting format
that starts Dec. 1. Pres.
Livingstone called for Tom Link to come forward for the ceremonial transfer of
gavel to our new President.
Tom is excited about his upcoming role as our President. Old

adjourned. Dennis
Tramer returned with the raffle tickets and more were sold before the numbers
were drawn.
Mike Marmer, Jerry Leininger, and John Davis pulled the tickets. Pres.
Livy called them out. Rick Evans and Dan Ahearn distributed the prizes to the
winners.
Lots of great prizes were won tonight which included golf equipment,
money, and liquor. Several
prizes were donated by the membership.
Don Pichovich and Tom Bentele just to name a couple. We
collected $90 for the 50-50 raffle tonight.
Dave Finkes had the lucky number that got him a quick $45, while the
other $45 went to Jr. Golf. The
membership drawing was worth $160 tonight.
It had not been won all year.
The first number pulled from the can matched the member number of John
Lynch.

Treasurer, Al Ostberg. As
your Membership Chairman I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year. Mike
