The Men’s Twilight Golfing Group will start playing again on Tuesday April 11th. This group of gregarious guys will again be getting together on Tuesdays to play a round of 9 holes on the big course. In April, the Tee Times will be 3:30, 3:40 & 3:50. As the days get longer, the times will adjusted to start later.
This group is an opportunity for golfers of all skill levels. But especially for those of us with higher handicaps (aka duffers and hackers) who want to have fun in a social outing with other men from our FV community. Hence, we are reluctant to call it a “League”, but rather a group of guys looking to have a good time. So if you are looking for a serious and somber (sober?) league, this may not be the one for you.
The goals of this group are two-fold. 1) Have Fun 2) Get to know your fellow neighbors. And, there are two ways to participate; as a “Regular” or a “Reserve”. Regulars are the gung-ho guys who intend to play each week. Reserves are the fellas who aren’t ready to make a weekly commitment. They are called up when a Regular has to drop out due to interruptions that life throws in their way.
Nobody is tracking scores like in a League situation. It is up to each player to decide if they want to keep their own score. Quite often, we play a “Scramble” format which is very popular and adds to the overall fun. Also, there is usually some imbibing of brewed beverages and boisterous braggadocio happening afterwards in the 19th hole.
The basic info is summarized below. (Subject to change…)
Rates: Initially $31 Walking or $45 with Cart. (Rates adjust during season.)
Days: Tuesdays - Twilight 9 Holes. (On Championship course.)

Last year there were 14 Regulars and 9 Reserves. They unanimously agreed that both of the Goals were met. We are looking forward to continuing our growing relationships with other FV neighbors. As such, it is sincerely hoped that more men from the community join us for these weekly outings.
More details will be distributed to persons expressing interested in this golfing opportunity.
