OCC Golf - Tuesday Notes

Please Note:
1. Hard to believe but that is precipitation falling from the sky! What an intriguing year...
2. Replace Divots. Repair Ballmarks. Rake Bunkers.

Tuesday Night Scramble
5:30 Start
Last week was the official end of the year event for 9-Hole League play but we have decided (weather permitting) to host one last event consisting of both men & women participating together for a 9-Hole scramble.  Please contact the Golf Shop if you would like to participate by 4:00 PM so that we may pair teams (ABCD) for the "Cats & Dogs" Shoot-out Scramble that will surely be a great night on the links of OCC!

Couples Invitational Showcase
Fri., Oct. 2nd - 6:30 PM Meet & Greet on Clubhouse Veranda
Sat. & Sun., Oct. 3rd & 4th - 9:00 AM Start
Entry Fee - $180 Per Team
Currently we have 25 teams (11 Member & 14 Guest) committed to play in the inaugural Couples Invitational Showcase this upcoming weekend.  I would like to encourage any members who would like to play to contact the Golf Shop before the 4:00 PM Deadline tomorrow afternoon.  This is truly going to be a good time, regardless of playing ability, as the format will feature a Modified Alternate Shot with all teams being flighted after R1 scores.  We are pairing teams in either threesomes/foursomes & you may request a couple to play with in the first round on Saturday morning.  All Sunday pairings will be in flight & based off of R1 scores.  We also have a lot of "side" games & fun events scheduled throughout the weekend for participants & the entry fee includes golf, tournament purse, sugar/spice breakfast & lunch as well as a participation gift.  Please contact the Golf Shop if you would like to participate.

Golf Outing Notes:
We have another active month of sponsored corporate events scheduled throughout this month.  I will make sure that we try to accommodate as many member rounds as we can & you can expect the tee sheet to have some availability on these days.  Please note the dates:
10/2 - Genscape 9:00 AM
10/8 - Jill's Wish 1:30 PM
10/13 - KY GCSA 12:00 PM
10/15 - TDM 9:30 AM

Finally, if you did not pick up your tee gift this afternoon (many of you did not) please ask for it the next time you are at the Club & we will make sure that you get it.  Thanks for playing this morning & I hope that everyone enjoyed the 2015 OMGA golf calendar!

OCC Golf - Sept. 15th

Please Note:
1. Replacing your divot is good for your game.  Repairing ball marks may assist you in making putts.  Raking bunkers can be a meditative exercise. 

Congratulations!
I would like to congratulate our General Manager, Richard Schmitt, for accepting his new position at Owl Creek CC as well as thank him for his tenure at Oxmoor CC the past 9 seasons.  It has been a tremendous opportunity to work alongside Richard during some of our best/worst times in the Club history & his vision, commitment & leadership has been instrumental in rebranding our Club in the Louisville golfing community.  Please make sure that you stop by the Club over the next 10 days to thank him for his service & wish him the best as he embarks on a new chapter in his career!

Hole In One!
Congratulations to Mr. Mark Steurer for recording the perfect shot on hole #8 last weekend from 155 yards using a 7-iron.  By all witnessing accounts, the shot never left the flagstick & took 1 bounce and went directly into the hole, for his 3rd ace of his golfing life (2nd on #8) which have all occurred on the links of Oxmoor CC!
