Lakeview Community League

This week's local newspapers will have the brief article on the forming of the new Community League here at Lakeview. Go here for the article. One unique feature of the league is the opportunity for golfers to play on more than one team, though I don't see anybody playing in more than two because of time constraints. Since it is a play at your-own-convenience league, a golfer could theoretically play with a spouse on one day and then later in the week, play with a friend. Grandparents could play with grandchildren, and then on another day with each other or with a friend. For instance, Diane is planning on playing with her grandson, Lucas, and still has the option of playing with a friend as a Woman-Woman pairing, or even with a man as part of a Woman-Male team. (Of course, each team has to come up with an entry fee: $20.)

Our Women's League of past years has been folded into this broader, more inclusive league. Even further back, when a Junior League was offered out here, that, too, now has a resurrection of sorts, as our youngsters can now team up with each other and participate in a Lakeview League.

So, all you golfers out there who have wanted to be part of a league - well, now one's available. I hope you come join us and share in the fun and competition of league play. What the heck, you may find yourself on the top of the standings come the end of August. At the least you will have had the opportunity to spend some quality time with people for whom you care.
