men���s golf With the news that, starting Jan. 1, all tournament entry fees would increase to a minimum of $10 per event our tournament participation for December was nearly unprecedented. We had exceptional weather for the Pinehurst and Three-InOne Tournaments, as well as ���elds that were near maximum numbers. This all portends a great start for 2013! What is also new for 2013 is that all tournaments played during the months of October through March will have 9 am start times, with the elimination of tournament afternoon rounds. Our Tournament Director, Dennis Stancik, has ���nally made the best possible decision in now stating that all tournament participants will play the same conditions. This also eliminates the playing of the Tuesday rounds for our very popular Quarterly Tournaments, but when fairness for all players is factored in this is absolutely the most pragmatic and just decision. Tournament start times will resume to 8 am for the months of April through September. Fred Rickman, our Membership Chairman, also reports that he will be sending the 2013 Membership handbook to the printer on Jan. 5. Therefore, all members that have procrastinated in getting in their 2013 Membership Applications and appropriate fees are reminded they must have these forms and fees handed directly to him by Jan. 4, if they wish to have their listing published in that handbook. These forms, mailed out during the ���rst week in October and including a $3 increase in the dues from the SCGA, were due on Dec. 1. The total due for membership this year is now $63. Jan. 1, is also when the new 2013 Men���s Club board of���cially takes over leadership of our club, and we could not have a group of more quali���ed and distinguished leaders. For 2013 our club will be lead by: Steve Munday, as Club President; Jack Smith, Vice President; David Kealy, Secretary; Gary Strachn, Treasurer; Dennis Stancik, Tournament Chairman; Fred Lutka, Handicap and Rules Chairman; Brian O���Connell, Publicity Chairman and BREEZE Editor; Fred Richman, Membership Chairman; and Marv Jensen, Social Chairman.
