On Nov. 14 the PebbleCreek Lady Nine-Hole Golf Association (PCL9GA) kicked off their season with the theme “Putt Now … Wine Later” Chardonnay Shamble format on Tuscany Falls East Course. Event Co-Chairs were Norma Guillaume and Tina Stepzinski.
On Nov. 28 Patti Engelhardt, PCL9GA Past President, and Ellen Enright, PCLGA Past President, organized a 9-hole scramble on Eagle’s Nest. Both the 9-hole and 18-hole lady golfers have shared this golf outing “Hometown Pride” for several years. Both associations enjoyed the opportunity to play together.

The Annual Memorial Event was held on Dec. 5. This event was in remembrance of the 34 deceased members of the PCL9GA lost since the beginning of the league. Memorial placards with each deceased Lady Niner’s name were placed at each Red Tee-Box for the day’s play.
