    THAT's where the idea of "divorce Open" came into play. One year one guy even left his wife at the course and went home he was so upset.

    Wish I could play but we will be playing in Malone that weekend
    Have fun

    Couples Fun Day Confirmed!
    When: Saturday September 13th at 1:00
    Where: Mont Cascades
    Cost: Golf w/cart $47 per person tax included
    Plus 20% off of regularly priced merchandise from the Pro Shop.

    I signed the contract today. We have 10 tee times starting at 1:00. That idiot Indio talked me into providing my credit card to guarantee that people will show up! Indio has never let me down before so I will trust his instincts

    Since this is a fun get together, there are no prizes and we will play an alternate shot modified event so those spouses that only play once or twice a year will be able to have fun without feeling pressured.

    They were willing to setup an inexpensive BBQ but I declined for this 'inaugural' event indicating that we would order ala cart after the round. They will make sure they have enough staff onhand to serve us on the patio after the golf

    Please signup by replying to this thread ASAP. Singles are welcome to signup and we will pair you up with other singles, so don't hesitate.

    I would like to give a big thanks to Noback (Steve) of the NCGT for negotiating such a great deal on our behalf

    Confirmed Participants: (5 couples spots left)

    01. Indio & Bugsy
    02. activechick & Bobby (TBC)
    03. Dan Kilbank & Agent 99

    Hubby is away for a couple more days. I think we should be fine for that date, but I had better check with him.

    Not everyone who showed interest will be able to make the date or convince the spouse. Don't worry, there is plenty of time and as I see it the glass is half full. I am sure the good folks at Cascades will be ok with a numbers adjustmet a week or so before the event. It's all good.
    Life dinnae come wit gimmies so yuv got nae chance o' gitt'n any from me.

    I'm not really worried.... I am sure they will give me some leeway for sure.... I just wanted to give a bump and a reminder to those that said they would go that it is open for registration

    Apparently some people are holding back because they don't like the alternate shot format Hey people, I don't want to force anything on anyone so if you really don't want to play alternate shot you are more than welcome to play your own game or even play scramble. As long as we are keeping up pace of play, I am perfectly happy with whatever you do

    This get together is about people meeting over a fun day at the golf course and a bite to eat after

    Fair enough, but I have an excuse..........

    When my father was growing up (this is a true story btw) - he was from a poor fishing family. He, and the other poor kids from fishing families had to take lobster sandwiches, crab cakes and scallops to school for lunch every day...........only the rich kids could afford things like peanut butter and jelly.

    That story has scared me for life and as a result I can't eat seafood

    My grandmother always told me of having Lobster nearly daily as a child...also because they were poor.

    Funny how things change.
