Wolf Point Charity Outing March 20th & 21st FULL - Hotel Info posted OP
« on: January 17, 2016, 09:52:28 AM »
March 20th and 21st
Opening for 20 18 14  8   Full (overbooked actually but some may drop and if not we'll figure it out)

Charity: Angel Flights South Central 
http://www.angelflightsc.org/
Al & Dianna Stanger own WP. Dianna is an aviation enthusiast and she has been making Angel Flights since 2001. She is the BOD Chairman for Angel Flights South Central.  Houston has some of the finest cancer care in the world and Angel Flights South Central transports needy patients from remote areas of the central US to care centers in Houston and Dallas. 
Donation recommended is minimum of $100- donations are tax deductible - don't donate yet as I will get the tax info and I want to be sure Dianna gets credit as not only does she donate her time and her aircraft, she also has a fund raising requirement and we are going to help her with that.
Here is some reading about Dianna

Details of the tourney itself to follow, but it will be much like last year. We appreciate that people want to see the course, but most of all we want to host a competitive golf event as we believe that the actual playing of a match against an opponent is the soul of the game and hopefully WP Golf Course can add to the enjoyment of the match.

I'll be posting about hotel info in the next week or so.
Golf is free, but we will be asking for $100 (in addition to donation) to defer the cost of a Sunday night dinner at our restaurant in Port Lavaca, http://shellfishdining.com/site/, and Monday cook out at the course
We also ask that while in town our visitors support the Shellfish Restaurant.

Summary
$100 minimum donation to Angel Flights, $100 to Don Mahaffey/Wolf Point Ranch to defer cost of dinner (its a nice dinner) and lunch on Monday, plus waters, other drinks out on course both days.

Course opens for play 10am Sunday for causal rounds, play until dark.
Tournament play on Monday, 36 holes
No carts available for players
Maps, tournament info to follow
Thanks, Don

I would also like to sign up, and just expressed my interest in the Lounge. 


What are the possible suggestions for Tuesday morning golf?


Cheers.

A few requests,
1. If you have questions, ask them here, out in the open, so the answer may help someone else.
2. If you need to send me a personal message or email, please use your full name. I'm getting emails from people I don't have in my contacts, using only a first name, and I'm not sure who is contacting me.
3. Express your interest in attending here, not on PM or email.


Also, I'll need your handicap and your home town.

Thx, Don

Assuming the response of hometown and handicap is to be posted here, call me Santa Cruz and 10.7 at the moment. 


This would be a wonderful opportunity to do well by doing good.  Cheers.

Wolf Point is truly a wonderful and unique experience and I highly recommend everyone to cancel any plans you might have to attend.

This is a tremendous opportunity for people to see a top 10 modern course.  I am really surprised that spots are still available.  It's worth a special effort to attend, and you never know if another chance will present itself. 

Don,
Thanks for doing this.  I know it's an effort for you to get approval and then to organize the event.  Wish I could make it.

I'm in the same boat as a few others - logistics due to a few prior commitments won't allow me to make this, but I spent a few hours trying to figure out if there was a way to pull it off.


Count me in in advance if there's a next time.

Don,


I'd love to attend from The Woodlands, HI=10.8, but I'm not sure i can or should do 36 on the Monday, due to shoulder still recovering from RC+ surgery. 


Any options for half-marathoners?

Aargghh!  This timing could not possibly be worse.  Family and I will be on spring break that week. Any easy way to get from Cancun to Wolf Point for a day trip?  ;D

Sure Dave,

Anything in this world can be had for the right price!! :)

Last year the weather was so crappy that the afternoon alternate shot competition was seven teams in one 14-some, and lasted 7 holes.

It was a great time last year but hopefully the weather is better this year...it was 40 degrees with a misty rain falling and 2-3 club wind blowing the entire time. I'm pretty hardy when it comes to weather but that was the coldest I've been on a golf course in a long long time...and it was at one of the southernmost areas in the continental US...

Don,
I think I've figured out flights from Indianapolis. Would you have room for one more? Or put me on the waiting list?
