It was 59 degrees out here this morning...I think that summer might finally be over!  What a fantastic time of year to play golf with brisk mornings and warm afternoons, so come enjoy the weather in the Texas Hill Country with a day at Vaaler Creek.

The golf course will be closed next Tuesday and Wednesday (the 11th and 12th) while we complete our winter over-seed program.  We will open back up on the 13th, but will be cart path only for 7 to 10 days until the seed has germinated enough to allow for cart traffic.

MONTHLY SCRAMBLE

Our monthly scramble for October will be this weekend on Saturday the 8th with a 9:30 shotgun start.  The cost will be $40 per player and will include: green fee and cart, a drink ticket, prizes for on-course contests, prizes for the top 3 teams, and food after the tournament.  Please contact the golf shop to register or just reply to this email (you can even sign up a partial team and we will try to pair everyone up into foursomes).

CA$H FOR CANCER

Our season headliner for the Cash For Cancer tournament series was 9 days ago.  We ended up with 78 players this year, which were split into 4 flights.  The low team in each flight won $570 and we also paid out cash to the 2nd and 3rd place team in each flight.  We raised over $4000 for Thrivewell.  Thank you to all the participants and the sponsors.  Hopefully, this tournament will continue to grow every year.

SKINS GAME

We host a weekly skins game on Monday mornings.  We will not utilize any handicaps for this tournament--just come out and make as many birdies as possible.  The skins game will cost $20 cash ($16 goes to skins and $4 goes to c.t.p. contests) and then $20 to cover the green fee and cart fee.  So, it's just $40 to play and you have the chance to make some cash.  There will also be an optional cash pool for medalist on the front, back, and total for an additional $6.  Tee times will start every Monday at 10:00.  Please call the golf shop during the weekends or up until 9am on Monday morning to sign up.
