LW Women’s Golf Club
Another rainy Tuesday canceled the Feb. 20 tournament of the Women’s Golf Club at the Turtle Lake course. The club hopes next week will bring sunshine. The golf course was just beginning to dry out from the previous rain. There are always the usual wet and muddy areas even in dry weather. Those areas include the No. 4 fairway just after the tee box and before the green, No. 8 and No. 9 fairways. There appear to be problems with the sprinklers. The grounds keepers do a great job, however they can only do so much. Gabe and Louie have been with us a very long time. The club appreciates them.
The golfers appreciate the course. It is a great amenity that any resident can enjoy. One does not have to be an expert golfer. “This is where I took up golf and definitely got the bug. Even if you don’t golf it is nice just to walk the perimeter,” said member Linda Herman.
All women in Leisure World are invited to join the golf club. Annual dues are $25 a year. There are quarterly meetings that include snacks and or luncheons. The weekly tournaments give players an opportunity to win their money back are a great chance to socialize. For more information, stop in at the starter shack or call 562-431-1257.
