golf news 2021 SUPER BOWL SCRAMBLE by Uel Kemp On January 30, a team from Lake Arrowhead won this year’s Super Bowl Scramble. While a typical 4-person scramble golf tournament, scoring for this event was based on a football analogy. For example, a bogey (safety) was worth negative 2 points, a par (field goal) was worth 3 points, a birdie (touchdown) was worth 6 points, and an eagle (touchdown and 2 point conversion) was worth 8 points. In addition, a team could earn one or two extra points for each birdie by sinking either a short or long putt. Using this format the winning team scored 102 points.

Overall, 19 teams (76 golfers) competed in the tournament and the Club awarded prizes to the first 3 teams in 3 flights. Each 1st Flight winning team member received a football trophy and pro-shop gift certificate. Other winners received pro-shop gift certificates. The winners are shown in the pictures below.

First Flight: 1st Place: Pat Farrelly, Mel Standley, Lee Heubner, and Jeff Ciupak (102 points) 2nd Place: Brian Schell, Sean Webb, Bill Maynard, and Jason Blackwell (100 points) 3rd Place: Adam Mellen, Brad Sims, John Butler, and David Kennedy (84 points) Second Flight: 1st Place: Shane Benefield, TC Chapman, Robert McGurk, and Bob Gusick (63 points) 2nd Place: Eric Gunderson, Justin Watkins, Drew Todd, Stuart Brandon (63 points) 3rd Place: Rick Salese, Ron Travis, Bobby Pyles, and Rick Warnke (58 points) Third Flight: 1st Place: Bud Milam, Mike Miller, Dave Baggerly, and Bill Williams (37 points) 2nd Place: Blake Taylor, Eric Gentry, Cole Hayter, and Michael Manus (31 points) 3rd Place: Kim Brophy, Debbie Switalski, Suzie Champitto, and Jan Garbiel (27 points)

RE: Code Red

The tornado warning siren will normally only activate when a tornado has been spotted or confirmed to be in the area, not for severe or bad weather. Cherokee County only has 58 siren sites; they do not cover the entire county. Most homes and buildings are designed to keep sounds out, thus outdoor warning sirens are most useful for alerting people who are outside their home, in parks, or shopping areas. While outdoor sirens are an important part of the overall warning system, they should never be considered your primary means of receiving tornado warnings at home or work.

Make sure you have at least two ways to receive a warning. NOAA All Hazards Radio is the best way to receive a warning and the details associated with that warning (especially overnight)..

Code Red, what is? As you know we have outdoor sirens that are to be heard only for the outside, after speaking to the Cherokee County Emergency center they advised to use Code Red and also the NOAA All Hazards Radio.

by Sarah Martin Jones

The Mystery of Mrs. Christie – Marie Benedict. Naperville, IL: Sourcebooks, 2021.

Of the 66 detective novels and 14 short story collections penned by Agatha Christie during her long career, no mystery has been more perplexing than her own disappearance in December 1926. For eleven days, all of England seemed to partake in the search for her. The only facts known were these: On a Friday evening, she leaves her home in Berkshire, England supposedly to visit friends for the weekend. The next morning her car was found on a steep slope beside a deep pond, her coat and luggage still in the back seat. Left behind at her home were her 7-year-old daughter, Rosalind, the child’s nanny, and Agatha’s husband Archibald (known as Archie) who immediately became the prime suspect.

Marie Benedict uses these few facts to craft her story, much as she did with her other best sellers (The Only Woman in the Room and Carnegie’s Maid, among others). At this point in Christie’s career, she was still a fledgling writer – a pursuit that her husband considered beneath their station in life. Benedict uses this perspective into their life to build her narrative.

The Christie’s marriage was a classic World War I romance: Archie was a dashing pilot in Brittan’s Flying Corp and Agatha a hospital nurse. But ten years into their marriage, he is carrying on an affair and she is struggling to hold the family together. Unlike the strong central characters in her books, the feisty Miss Marple or the vain Hercule Poirot who solves mysteries using his “little gray cells,” Agatha is characterized as an insecure woman who believes that a woman’s duty is total devotion to her husband. (Thank you, Mumsy.)

The story shifts between time periods, beginning with the couple’s first meeting and building up to the current investigation into Agatha’s disappearance. Benedict frames the story with a letter, supposedly written by Agatha to Archie, telling him every step he must take

Sarah Martin Jones is a former English teacher and author of Quicksand: A Cautionary Love Story. Her novel, Summer Squall, will be published by Sunbury Press in Fall 2019. You can reach her at sarah.gently@gmail.com and read her book and wine pairings at www.SarahJonesAuthor.com.

over the coming days. “Only by following my directions at each crossroad in this journey will be story end well for us all,” she warns him. This letter helps pull the reader forward throughout the investigation of her disappearance as it gives insight lacking to the police who launch the largest manhunt England had ever seen, with thousands of volunteers mobilized for what was called The Great Sunday Hunt.

But what are the steps dictated in the letter that Archie must take? Like any good mystery writer, Benedict doesn’t reveal these until the end. Also, like any good women’s fiction story, Archie is outed for the louse that he is.

Just as she did in The Only Woman in the Room (which gives insights into the brilliant mind of screen star Hedy Lamarr), The Mystery of Mrs. Christie shows how limiting a woman’s life can be when social mores shackle her ambitions.

“Agatha was that rare example of a woman who used her skill, talent and moxie to escape from the confines of her era – with the limitations it placed on women – and wrest control of her life,” writes Benedict in the Author Notes. “So instead of writing a forgotten woman back into history, this book explores one strong woman’s successful endeavor to take her history into her own hands and write herself back into the narrative.”

MY WINE RECOMMENDATION During the 1920’s champagne was the drink of choice among the gentry.

While that would have meant a French brute for Mrs. Christie’s table, today she might choose a bubbly from the UK. A Platinum and Best in Show in a recent international wine competition went to Roebuck Estate near Petworth for its Classic Cuvée Brut 2014. Judges hailed its flavors of “baked apple, buttered toast and layered citrus fruits” which sounds like a delightful addition to a proper English afternoon tea. $40
