2009 BCGC Christmas Party & General Mtg

The 2009 BCGC Christmas Party
Was a Great Success!!!

We had a full house at the Aviator Restaurant Wednesday night for the Club's Annual Christmas Dinner. The food, drink and desert were outstanding, and from the sounds of things, everyone had a great time.

The BCGC Board Members also provided a read out on 2009, and a glance into 2010. President Mark Edgar shared the Board's BOLD Goals for 2010 by following the 3E's:

EXPAND - exceed 100 members

EXPERIENCE - fun/competitive tournaments & social outings

ENJOY - relationships & friendships

Tournament Chairs Jim Coombs (Midweek) and Kim Volk (Weekend) presented awards to the Club Champions and Players of the Year.

Bob Volk (VP) dazzled the group with a fine selection of raffle prizes.

Jason Mangels (Newsletter) provided insight to using the BCGC Web Site and shared the preliminary publish dates (Jan., April, Aug. & Nov.) for the 2010 on-line issues of Tee Talk .

Treasurer Don Sperling is estimating we will finish the year with approximately the same bank balance as we started the year. He noted this was pretty good considering we had fewer members than in prior years.

Barbara Conerly (Handicap Chair) informed the group of a new change to HC Indexes, currently they are calculated once a month and this will change to twice a month in 2010.

Jeri Fong (Secretary) scribed notes from member comments and recommendations for review and consideration by the Board at the next Board Meeting.

A Very Special thanks to Pat Mar (Membership) for organizing another successful Christmas Party, a lot of effort went into the planning of this event, and it showed.
