Pinwheels-Tournament Idea

Pinwheels are whimsical! You can have a variety of themes and use pinwheels as your decorations.  For example, Blowing in the Wind or Fun in the Sun could be your overall theme and use the pinwheel as your decoration.   Line the driveway to your event with pinwheels, put pinwheels in a tricky sand traps for a free lift, arrange pinwheels in a container as the centerpiece.  Use pinwheels to indicate tee boxes.  Use pinwheels to indicate tennis courts used for different divisions in tournaments.  Pinwheels can also be used in your garden or deck.  Rumor has it they scare off squirrels! 

Get a Birdie? Have a Belt!

BELTS FOR BIRDIES! After getting a Birdie on a hole the other day my friend pulled out a cute pink flask and 4 small plastic cups-the kind of cups hospitals use for medication distribution. We proceeded to click our cups and congratulate the "Birdie" girl! Fortunately, or unfortunately, we only had one more birde during the round!  Try this fun celebration  the next time you or your friend get a Tweet! Tweet!  Don't forget your flask.  Great for cold mornings or late afternoons.

Grass Roots 9/11 Rememberance-JUST WEAR RED

We would like to start a grass roots campaign to honor all those who died in the attacks on the WTC. Let's show their family members that America will never forget. On September 11, 2011 everyone wear red.  It is easy-no cost. Imagine the solidarity it would show if every single man, woman, and child in America wore red for this one day.  Please share this post.  Just Wear Red

Even the Playing Field!

Instead of "giving strokes" the next time you are playing golf try this format. It is especially fun when playing in a foursome where there is a difference in handicaps. Young golfers can catch on quickly, and everyone has a chance of getting "points." We have set up the points in a table form so you can print it out and carry it with you. It is a variation of other games but it is easy to score. Everyone keeps track of their own points. You announce how many "points" you got after each hole. This relieves any embarrassment if someone had a high score. The player just announces his 'points." At the end of the round players total their points and pay off the winner. The Payment can be a round of drinks, a quarter, or any agreed upon award. (We are not encouraging gambling in any way!)
SCORING:
•1 POINT - DRIVE IN FAIRWAY
•1 POINT - ONE PUTT
•1 POINT - BOGEY
•2 POINTS - PAR
•2 POINTS - LAND ON GREEN PAR 3
•3 POINTS - BIRDIE
•3 POINTS - CHIP-IN
