In an effort to get information to the members TJ Cope has developed a website with information about past and future tournaments. Log on if you have Internet and check it out. We will try to use more of this in the year 2002. Entry blanks can be obtained by going to the entry and printing out the form. The web page site is:

The next tournament will be held at Hickory Woods. The cost for this tournament will be $48. Included in this price will be golf, cart and tournament prize fund. The date of this tournament will be July 20th with tee times starting at 11:00 AM. The format of this tourney is a 2 MAN BOTH BALLS. Sign up as a twosome and pairings will be blind drawn. Like all our remaining tourneys full handicap will be used.
For all members there are optional side pots that consist of:
$5 Low Gross $5 Low Net $5 Skins
These side jackpots can be sent in with your entry fee if you know that you are going to get into them. This will help free up time for the people running the tournament to also hit some balls. All players should check in at the table or designated location so the tournament committee knows they are at the course and also to see if they are interested in getting into the side jackpots. If you have a preference on tee times, we will try to accommodate you if possible. The earlier your entry is received the more chance you have of receiving the request. The deadline for the Hickory Woods Tournament will be Wednesday July 10th. So mail your entries in as soon as possible. If your entry is not received before Wednesday, you could be shutout. This course must have a final number before Thirsday. Once the number is given no additional times will be added. Therefore return your entry blanks back as soon as possible. No spots can be held. If you want to play return your entry and money on time. The August Tournament is scheduled for Walden Ponds.
For people who are mailing their entries in separate, make sure your partners also mail in there entries. There is no dress code at this golf course.
Before turning in your card it is your responsibility to check the scores and make sure they are right. If there is a mistake tell your partners and make the correction before turning in the card. We, the board, do not check scorecards unless your team or an individual cashes in one of the side games. If you turn in an incorrect card that is higher, the board does not change the score.
