February 14, 2021 Happy Valentine’s Day to all you golfers out there. It may be hard to believe but we are only 2 short months away from our first scheduled event. Our first event is scheduled for April 19, 2021 at the Village Green Golf Course. We are not sure if we will be back to regular schedule of 144 golfers with a Shotgun Start, or if we will have to do 80 golfers with a Shotgun Start or Tee Times. As soon as we that information available, we will get it out to everyone. It will totally depend on what the States are doing as far as COVID and restrictions in the State. I think we will be okay in North Dakota, but we will just have to be patient and hope that we can get back to Normal.
As of now we are planning to hold the events in accordance with our regular system, 144 golfers on 18 Hole courses and 72 on 9 Hole Courses. As I stated in the December Newsletter, we had a successful season even though we had to cut participants in each event to half the normal golfers attending each event. We allowed golfers to Opt Out for the season and put their membership money to the 2021 Golf Season. We had over 100 golfers use that option. We also did not require the active golfers to play the minimum 5 rounds to keep your membership. We have decided that we will go back to the way we have always been as far as requirements. We are hoping everything will go back to normal by the time the Golf Season starts in Mid-April 2021, so there will be NO OPTING OUT and you WILL BE required to play a minimum of 5 rounds of golf to stay on the active membership list. We really liked the Check process so as of now, we are keeping that option open. If we can go back to a Normal Golf Season, we will pay out the winning money at the next event, like we previously did, instead of paying with checks.

THE GREEN FEE COST THAT GOLFERS PAY TO PLAY WILL BE INCREASED TO $15 PER ROUND. WE WILL BE PAYING THE SAME TO THE GOLF COURSES PER ROUND WHETHER IT IS A 9 HOLE OR 18 HOLE COURSE. SO NOW, WALKING WILL BE $15 AND RIDING WILL BE $15 PLUS COST OF CART. WE ARE NOT SURE WHY THERE WAS A DIFFERENCE FOR 9 HOLE COURSE VERSUS A 18 HOLE COURSE, BUT WE DECIDED IT SHOULD BE THE SAME.
Reino has got the New Schedule posted on our Web Site, so check it out. I am looking forward to the New Season and hopefully, we will be start playing April 19 at Village Green.
I know a lot of this is repeated information, but I want to make sure we stay on top of it.
David
