THE CHARBONNEAU VILLAGER 21 May 2019 Charbonneau Women’s Golf Association By LAURA CURRAN CHARBONNEAU WOMEN’S GOLF ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT Additional tee times to become available “The heart of a home is a mother.” Many of us will be recognizing our own mothers, and being honored ourselves, May 12 for Mother’s Day. While many have mothers who are now gone, their legacy lives on in us and our children. This past year I have experienced the joy of a first grandchild. Not only do I love this new little being, I am thrilled at being able to observe my daughter in her role as mother. I relate to her sense of responsibility, happiness, love and sometimes challenge. Cheers to all on Mother’s Day! At our last CWGA Board Meeting Terry Borst addressed the issue of tee times. As a reminder, the sign-up book always has dates for four weeks out. Terry noted that those playing nine holes generally prefer to begin golf at 9 a.m., so as the season progresses, she will release the earlier and/or later tee times back to the golf course for public use. Our first play day of the season followed the Welcome Back Breakfast hosted by the Membership Committee. Janet Ferguson, Jan Holley and Jean Czubin welcomed the new members TVF&R ■ From Page 20 your vision checked and replace eyeglasses as needed.

If you haven’t had your picture taken for the CWGA Members Directory you will be contacted to have your photo taken. Also, once everyone has a red shirt, we will all gather for a group photo to replace the old one currently on the website. It will be on one of the shotgun dates in May or June. Cathi McLain is the contact to get your shirt ordered. Our May 2 Scramble will be followed by a Mexican-themed luncheon, organized by our new Social Committee, chaired by Liz Henry and Carole Sletta. The theme will be “Sinko de Putt,” in honor of Cinco de Mayo.
