President's Message

January 2021

Happy New Year everyone!  I think everyone is glad that 2020 is gone and there is hope that 2021 will be a much better year.  COVID is still raging now, worse than it’s ever been, but the vaccine is on the way.  If you aren’t on the register to receive a vaccine, be sure to sign up at SBRVaccine@gmail.com.  From the people my daughter that works at a hospital and I know, no one has had a reaction except for a sore arm like any vaccine.  My daughter got her's today.  Please stay the course with masks, washing your hands, social distancing and refraining from indoor gatherings for just a bit longer until this eases up.  Let’s stay well so we can play golf!  We certainly have had great weather lately for playing!

2021 Board:
I’m happy to introduce our 2021 Board:

President – Jeanne Osterlund
Vice President – Lorraine Smith
Secretary – Joanne Oliver
Treasurer – Diane Taylor
Rules/Handicap Chair – Trish Kelly and Alex Anna
Social Chair – Mindy Hawkins
Membership Chair – Marci Whitehead
Sponsorship Chair - Cheryl Reddy and Pam Horwitt
Communications Chair – Carol Mihal
League Day Chair – Susan Pharr
Webmaster – Barb Simms

Thank you to outgoing Board members Melanie Timberlake, Terri Fraser, and Mimi Heywood.  Your time, energy and work for our club is much appreciated.  Enjoy your “retirement”!

A big welcome to Barb Simms (Webmaster) and Susan Pharr (League Day) and to Jean Cheszek and Debbie Shelton who will be assisting Susan with League Day.  Thank you so much ladies!

To our returning Board members, THANK YOU for agreeing to serve another year.  You’re the best!!

New Members:
Welcome to our two new members in December!  Kathy Dyer joined Dec. 12 but will not move into SaddleBrooke Ranch till Jan. 14.  Karen Lanning joined Dec.  31 and Pam Horwitt is mentoring her when she starts playing with us in Feb.

Holiday gifts:
SBRMGA, SBRWGA and the community collected $7055 for the Golf Course Maintenance Crew fund.  Additionally, Trish and Marci put together the cutest goodie bags ever for both the Maintenance Crew and the Pro Shop with treats supplied by many of you.  They were very excited to receive them!  We received many “thank you” emails and responses from the golf course staff.  Thank you for your generosity!

Mike wanted me to pass on to all of you his personal Thank You for including the Pro Shop this year for the goodie bags and for the gift cards our club gave to Mike and Ken. 
After all members that wanted one got a headcover gift, we donated the extra ones to First Tee of Tucson.  Susan Pharr made the arrangements and said they were very excited to get them for the girls.
It’s great that we were able to bring some joy to others this holiday season.

Budget for 2021:
The proposed budget was sent to our membership and voting was done via Survey Monkey.  It passed with a unanimous 52 yes votes.

The approved budget is attached.  Please note that the Board subsequently voted to cancel Member Guest for 2021 due to COVID.  That line item has been changed to zero as a result.

With the exception of Member Guest that the Board decided to cancel due to COVID, we are planning to play all other tournaments at this time.  We are currently not able to have luncheons or gatherings so those will remain TBD, but the tournaments will be played. 

Last but NOT least:
GHIN Digital Profile Launch: Monday, January 11th
Beginning Monday, January 11, in order to access GHIN handicap posting outlets (GHIN.com & GHIN mobile app), each member will need to register themselves for a 'GHIN Digital Profile.' This new Digital Profile will require registration of a unique email address within their GHIN handicap record, along with setup of a personal password. A dedicated communication will be issued on the morning of January 11th to any member with an email address on file offering them more specific details of the registration process which will become available to access at that time. In the meantime, please click the button below to review Frequently Asked Questions for the initial projection of what to expect. (attached)
Wishing you all a Happy and Healthy New Year!
Jeanne
