TWO AREAS OF CAUTION

NEW PRO SHOP ATTENDANT
DENNIS WAS HIRED TO HELP OUT IN THE PRO SHOP RECENTLY. DENNIS IS FROM THE BAY CITY AREA, WHERE HE WAS IN THE RESTAURANT BUSINESS BEFORE COMING HERE. DENNIS IS A VERY ENGAGING FELLOW AND IS A HARD WORKER. MEET HIM THE NEXT TIME YOU SEE HIM AND GET TO KNOW HIM. IF YOU LIKE TO TALK A LOT YOUR IN GOOD COMPANY WITH DENNIS. AS YOU NOW KNOW, DENNIS PASSED AWAY.
**THOSE STEPS ON THE 9TH HOLE!**
THERE HAVE BEEN TOO MANY FALLS ON THE STEPS ON THIS HOLE ESPECIALLY. PLEASE BE EXTRA CAREFUL WHEN YOU ENTER THOSE STEPS, AS THEY TEND TO BE VERY SLIPPERY, EVEN IN DRY WEATHER.
EXTRA CAUTION NOW THAT SOMEONE HAS PLOWED INTO THE RAILING OF THE STEPS CAUSING THE STEPS TO SEPERATE CAUSING ANOTHER REASON FOR CAUTION.
THIS ALSO REMINDS ME TO SAY IF YOU ARE DRIVING THE CART, PLEASE BE VERY SLOW GOING DOWN THE CART TRAIL AS IT TOO SEEMS TO BE ROUGH SLEDDING TRYING TO COME TO A STOP WITHOUT HAVING AN ACCIDENT.
OLD BRICKYARD GOLF ASSOCIATION
ACCORDING TO RANDY SMITH, GOLF PRO, THE OBGA, OLD BRICKYARD GOLF ASSOCIATION, IS A GREAT PLACE TO MEET DIFFERENT PERSONALITIES AND GOLF PLAYERS SO WHY NOT JOIN TODAY AND ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF TOURNAMENT GOLF.
THERE ARE ABOUT 12 -16 TOURNAMENTS A YEAR AND SOME OF THOSE ARE IN ANOTHER FORMAT CALLED THE ACCUMULATOR. AND OF COURSE THERE IS THE CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP TO LOOK FORWARD TO.
THE LAST TOURNAMENT WAS WON IN 2 DIVISIONS.
A DIVISION WAS WON BY MARC WILSON
B DIVISION WAS WON BY JAMIE LYLE

REMEMBER TO FELLOWSHIP WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES AT THE CHURCH OF YOUR CHOICE. IT IS ALWAYS REFRESHING TO THE SPIRIT OF MAN, TO HEAR GODS WORD PREACHED AND TO HEAR THE PRAISE OF GODS GOODNESS IN SONGS OF PRAISE, TO ENLIGHTEN A MANS SPIRIT WITHIN HIM.
VICTIM OF STORMS
THE OLD BRICKYARD REPORTED TO HAVE 7 INCHES OF RAIN THIS WED AND THURS-JUNE 10-11.
THE BABY BIRD WAS A VICTIM OF THE TERRIBLE WINDS AND STORMS THAT SWEPT THRU THE FERRIS AREA.
THATS HOWARD RUNIONS HAND REACHING FOR THE BALL THAT MADE HIM HIS 12TH HOLE IN ONE.
THATS RIGHT!
HOWARD RUNION DID IT AGAIN, THAT MAKES HIS 12TH HOLE IN ONE.
HOWARD WAS ON THE TEE BOX WITH A WEDGE AND STOPPED AND SAID, I BETTER HIT ANOTHER CLUB. HE GOT HIS 9 IRON AND PLOP INTO THE HOLE IT WENT.
CONGRAGULATIONS!
JESSE ARRIGA MADE A HOLE IN ONE ON THE #6 PAR 3 HOLE ON 6-30-09, DURING THE SENIOR SCRAMBLE.
CART ACCIDENT
IT WAS REPORTED THAT PAUL SLAUGHTER WAS INJURED WHEN THE CART HE WAS EITHER ON OR WAS DRIVING, TURNED OVER ON ITS SIDE, ON THE 5TH HOLE GOING DOWN A HILL. THE MISTAKE HE MADE WAS HE OR SOMEONE TRIED TO BRAKE THE CART TO SLOW DOWN, WHEN IT WENT INTO A SPIN AND TURNED OVER.
THIS IS A SAD REPORT CONCERNING THIS SITUATION, PRAYING PAUL IS DOING OK.
THE CART THING IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN GOING DOWN SOME OF THE STEEP HILLS HERE AT THE COURSE. ALTHOUGH WHEN YOU ARE GOING DOWN AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED AND YOU FEEL A BIT PANICKED TO WANT TO SLOW THE CART DOWN, YOU INADVERTENTLY WANT TO PUT YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THEN YOU ARE IN REAL TROUBLE.
PLEASE BE AWARE OF YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES WHILE ON THE COURSE AND BE SAFE.
