On July 22nd & 23rd, 34 Lake Arrowhead golf members played in the 2023 Member – Member Golf Tournament. Always competitive, this year’s tournament was no exception. Craig Glasgow and Bill Maynard won the low gross score honors! Larry Adams and Rex Wallace won the overall low net score.


The Member – Member Golf Tournament is an annual event where golf club members form 2-person teams to compete for trophies and prizes plus the honor of being named Tournament Champions for the year. The tournament format is known by several names (four ball, best ball, and better ball) but whatever it is called, it essentially requires each team member to play their own ball. At the end of each hole, the lowest individual score is recorded as the team score. This year’s tournament was divided into 3 flights: First, Second, and Third. The winners were:
1st Flight
1st Place Gross – Bill Maynard & Craig Glasgow

2nd Place Gross – Brian Schell & Sean Webb
1st Place Net – Bruce Thomas & Paul Bolding
2nd Place Net – Jeff Ciupak & Mel Standley
2nd Flight
1st Place Gross – Dave Davis & Rick Salese

RED, WHITE & BLUE SCRAMBLE - JULY 4TH, 2023
Red, White, and Blue in this instance had a dual meaning. Besides representing Independence Day and our nation’s flag, it was an integral part of the tournament rules. As many of you know, the Lake Arrowhead Golf Course has five sets of tees, three of which are red, white, and blue. The closest (and typically easiest) are the red tees and the longest (and typically the hardest) are the blue tees. In between are the white tees.
To start the tournament, each of the teams teed off from the white tees. If the team made a par, it continued to play from the white tees on the next hole. However, if the team made a birdie, it moved back to the harder blue tees on the next hole: if the team made a bogey, it moved up to the easier red tees. This process continued throughout the tournament.
The tournament field was divided into four flights based on each team’s score. Pro Shop gift certificates were then awarded to each member of the top three teams in each flight. Ties were broken with a scorecard playoff starting on hole 18. The winners were:

Lalga Red White And Blue
For those of you who haven’t caught on yet the LALGA has 2 events every month. The first Thursday of every month 18 hole handicapped Cat Fight and the third Thursday a 9 hole themed event.

June’s themed event was a nontraditional scramble where a two person team played a tee shot. After that, the two team members alternated every other shot until holed out. I played with Grace Kreft (who by the way does the beautiful decorations for the LGA events) and was hoping to not be the person that needed to make it across the ravines. I did okay with it but we didn’t finish in the money though we had as much fun as everyone else.
We had 15 ladies dressed in their celebratory red, white and blue outfits, which delightedly complemented the patriotic decorations at the clubhouse.


The pace of play really moved along quickly and we were all back at the clubhouse for an early lunch, which by the way was really delicious and came from the new Highlands Grill menu. Torrey and Kynsey provided excellent service with never ending smiles.
With all the teams scorecards submitted and tallied, the winners announced were as follows.
1st Place Janice Larkin and Cynthia Samuels
2nd Place Patty Adams and Natalie Teuton
3rd Place Janice Cash and Karen Helm
4th Place Jan Benefield and Heather Gass
There were a few players that thought there should be a payout for every time they said I’m sorry for a missed shot. Unfortunately, I don’t think anyone’s beads could count that high. It certainly sounded like good humor was widespread, even outside the winners circle.
The first Thursday Cat Fight only had 6 people completing all 18 holes qualifying for the prizes. Joan Eberhardt finished in first place with Martha Elkins in 2nd. Note to the Ladies; Even if you do not wish to play 18 holes you can still come out and play 9.

If you are still considering joining the LGA you are welcome to join us on the Monday afternoon or Thursday morning play days. Call the pro shop to sign up. Regular rates apply. You don’t need a golf handicap. There’s still plenty of golf left to play in this young season.
The LGA had a total of 150 individual tee time reservations for our events and play days in the month of June. We continue to thrive!
