Event Sign-ups FOR 2012
All event sign-ups (with few exceptions) may be done on line by sending an e-mail to Gary Lehman (President) expressing your interest in playing in a particular event. The e-mail address is: glehman12@gmail.com You may sign someone else up as well. However, if they violate the cancellation policy by canceling after sign-ups have closed, or do not show, you are financially responsible. The 'window' for signing up for an event are specifically stated on the schedule in the Events and Tee times section.
Handicap Management
For 2012, the RPMC Boardolf.
Club Championship
For 2012
“Age 65 and # Strokes Rule”
You will see that we show several events as “Age 65 and # Strokes Rule” events. Simply put, this is a new rule where any player who is BOTH age 65 or older, AND is receiving the designated number of strokes in that day’s event, has the option to play from the gold tees. It’s our hope that this simple rule will allow some of our older members to compete on a more equal basis in team events.
Other News of Interest
*You will notice that we do not have an event scheduled in April this year. Richter Park will be undergoing some on course construction which may not be complete in time for us to schedule an April event. We expect to return to an April event in 2011.
*Our No-Show/Cancellation policy has not changed from last year; please see the website for details.
*Our website www.rpmc.net will soon have a copy of this newsletter, the renewal application, our schedule, and all supporting information for the 2012 season. Please take a few minutes to read the details and become a bit more familiar with the events.
IMPORTANT: Please go to the site and provide your email contact information as soon as possible. We want to update our records for future contact.
Finally, we wish to thank the Richter Park Authority and its Tournament Committee members for approving our 2012 schedule. The Men’s Club enjoys a great working relationship with the Richter Park Authority and management of Richter Park. We greatly appreciate the work they do on our behalf.
