Report from Candy Couch on Ladies Golf Association (SLWGA):
-A Scramble organized by Debbie Hess, Paula Brumble and Carol Cable was played on Saturday, June 3rd and the team of Amy Hutchinson, Tev Brackin, Leta Carson and Paula Brumble came in 1st place. The 2 unidentified males in the picture were evidently the players’ caddies. The SLWGA horserace organized by Ann Turner scheduled for June 17th was cancelled due to weather.

GOLF JOKE of THE WEEK
From my friend in Oklahoma City, Greg Gilpin
Ray and Bob, two Government maintenance guys, were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking up. A woman walked by and asked what they were doing. "We're supposed to find the height of the flagpole", said Bob, "But we don't have a ladder." The woman said, "Hand me that wrench out of your toolbox." She loosened a few bolts, then laid the pole down. She then took a tape measure from their toolbox, took a measurement and announced, "Eighteen feet, six inches" and walked away.
Ray shook his head and laughed. "Well, ain't that just like a 'Miss-know-it-all' woman?" he said. "We need the height and she gives us the length!"
Ray and Bob are still working for the Government.
Keep it in the Middle !
