3 Reminders.........

1) When playing Hole 3 on Tuesday sweeps, DO NOT USE the temporary green combo tees. All ladies using green or gold tees should use the current rated tee box that has been then for years. On other days, feel free to try out temporary tee box and when posting, use pars + pops for Hole 3. 2) The 9 month Eclectic tournament starts next week, March 2nd! Please sign up on our 9er board in the library at the Sports Lounge and put your $6 check made out to LOP Lady Niners in our Lady Niner box in the Pro Shop; 3) Also starting next week, March 2nd, our shotgun start on Tuesdays at 9:30 AM!!!! Set your alarms! Questions? Contact Toni Boyer for Eclectic, Terri Rooney, Tournament Chair/Handicapper, or Mona Stolz, Captain.

Sand on greens?-what to do

Hello Ladies,

LOP maintenance has begun sanding sections of several greens. Pat Shaw, the LOP Pro, has determined to treat the sanded areas as Ground Under Repair also known as an Abnormal Course Condition. If you ball lands in one of these sanded areas on a green, you may lift the ball and place it, without penalty, at the nearest point of relief (no closer to the hole) that is not in a penalty area. If complete relief is impossible, place where affords the maximum available relief, no closer to hole. Click on link below to see more details and picture. If you have any questions, please reach out to Terri Rooney for additional clarification.

Correctiom Pat Wilkinsons' husband Jim had multiple TIAs. She does not need meals but Jim has a sweet tooth and would love cookies.

lopgolf.com training

Hello ladies, Most of you know there is currently a website to make online tee times at LOP. It's called lopgolf.com and was developed by Steve Kompolt. We do not use it for Tuesday sweeps, but it is available for other times you play. I recently heard that LOP is going to have a more comprehensive online tee time system coming in June so lopgolf.com may only be around for a few more months. However, if you are interested in learning more about lopgolf.com, Steve Kompolt has scheduled a zoom meeting on Wednesday, 2/10 at 10:00 AM. In this email, is the link to join the meeting. On Wednesday, you will have to locate this email and click on the link.

Tomorrow sweeps cancelled

Hello ladies, Unfortunately, the weather is not cooperating this week, and our regular Tuesday golf/sweeps is cancelled for this week. See you next week!

LOP Super Bowl Scramble golf tournament

Hello ladies, Attached is a flyer for LOP Super Bowl Scramble golf tournament on Saturday, 2/6. Questions and Sign up with Pro Shop if interested.

Scorecards--Signatures required

Ladies, Although Golf Genius is now scoring the Tuesday Sweeps game, we all still need to sign our scorecards that are turned in to the tournament helpers or placed in the tournament box.

Signing your scorecard says you have verified each hole score is correct and the person signing as "attest", is saying they agree with the turned in scorecard.

Starting in February, scorecards that do not have two signatures: "scorer" and "attest" may not be eligible for Sweep winnings. Terri and tournament helpers will do all that they can to remind everyone as they turn in their scorecards, but it is part of the Sweeps validation process that each turned in scorecard is signed by the scorer and attested.

If you have any questions, please reach out to Terri Rooney or Mona Stolz. Thank you!

30 minute frost delay today

Today there is a 30 minute frost delay so shotgun is at 10:30 AM. It's cold but sunny! There have been some cancellations, but we still have over 20 players. If you are the only one in your group, please contact other groups and/or pro shop to figure out where to play. For example, My group (1A) was down to just me, but I found 2 other ladies (Camilla and Mary) to join me on Hole 1A. I will be at pro shop area by 10:15 to help anyone who may still need help. Thanks, Mona

Change to weekly sign-up process

Our membership has been steadily growing, and as a result, we are now scheduled to play both sides of our course each week (unless we have fewer than 40 players). With this great news, there has been some last minute shuffling of hole assignments to evenly distribute the players on the front and back. This caused a few groups to be reassigned and scrambling to attempt to contact everyone affected.

After some discussion, ideas, and suggestions, our Executive board would like to move forward with a new way of making hole assignments each week. Beginning with the February 2nd sign up sheets, everyone will sign up in the Pro Shop (just like now) but will not sign up for a particular hole. Starting holes will be randomly assigned by our new Golf Genius software. Your hole assignments will be available to see on our website Monday afternoon and will also be shown on the popped cards our Tournament Chair sends out Monday evening. This change will:

1) eliminate last minute changes to hole assignments 2) be less confusing 3) be fair (will randomly assign holes) 4) will best utilize both sides of the course

As a note, inherent in using both sides of the course, sometimes you may be playing the same side of the course two weeks in a row, but our Tournament Chair will ensure that no one plays the same side three times in a row. Each side of the course is its own tournament so you are only competing in the sweeps game with ladies who played the same side of the course as you.

We are implementing this on a trial basis and may need to make some tweaks as we move forward, but we think this is a positive change for our club.

If you have any questions about the new process,please reach out to Terri Rooney or Mona Stolz.

Thank you,
