MISSION STATEMENT
The LGA meets and plays golf together for several reasons:
1. For our collective love of the game of golf.
2. For the friendships we form and the fun we have. We hit good shots (rejoicing) and bad shots (trying to laugh and move on).
3. We wish to learn from each other.
a. There is a tradition of respect and honor in golf. We respect our fellow golfers, being courteous and polite. We honor the dignity of our fellow golfers by being kind and patient with each other. We take care to sign up as required in a timely fashion and to notify the Ladies Day committee if we have to cancel.
b. We respect the golf courses we play. We try to obey the instructions we receive so that the course remains in good condition.
c. We want to teach the various many rules of golf to those who are newer to the game. We take advantage of opportunities to share our experience and knowledge.

Rules
3. The term of office shall be one year, and no elected officer shall serve more than two consecutive years, except the Treasurer and Assistant Treasurer may serve indefinitely.
4. The nominating committee shall consist of the last two presidents and will present a slate of officers at the meeting in October. Nominations may be made from the floor.
GUIDANCE FOR CONDUCTING LADIES DAY (TUESDAYS)
The purpose is to foster play among women of all different abilities and encourage fellowship among the entire group. To that end, the Ladies Day committee is responsible for the following:
1. Meeting at the beginning of each calendar year to develop a schedule of games for the year and assist the President in setting the schedule for tournaments and seeing that the club reserves those dates for Ladies’ play.
2. Assigning each committee member to a specific Tuesday to run that week’s game.
3. On the specific Tuesday assigned, the member for that week shall be in charge of organizing the assigned game as follows:
a. Collect the names of those signed up for that week and organize the pairing of golfers for that week and which holes they will begin on. Since the purpose is to ensure that all ladies have an opportunity to play with all others, the member shall record the pairings in the Ladies book, so that in the following weeks, the members can refer to previous weeks’ pairings and strive to pair the members with others they have not yet played with or have not played with recently.
b. Split Chip-in money among all players with chip-ins for the day.
c. Record all birdies to be added to the birdie tree.
d. Record winners for the day’s game.
4. At the end of the year, the birdies for each person will be tallied and a prize awarded to the person with the most birdies for the year. In the case of a tie, prizes shall be awarded to all who are tied. Additionally, with the help of the Club Pro, the President shall determine the most improved player for the year and a prize will be awarded. In the case of a tie, prizes shall be awarded to all who are tied. The prizes shall consist of $50 of credit with either the club or the pro shop.
The Ladies who play are responsible for signing up for Tuesday golf in a timely fashion and notifying the Ladies’ Day committee if they have to cancel. Many of the games we play require pairing golfers in advance for fair play and to keep the game moving. Although some last minute changes are unavoidable, frequent changes put a burden the committee. Prizes will be given on each Ladies Day for 18 holes of play, and as planned by the Ladies Day Committee.
Ladies Day Games start on the 1st Tuesday in April at 9:00 a.m. Beginning in June games start at 8:30 a.m. In September and October games start at 9:00 a.m.
