Golf

Well, crocus and daffodil shoots are poking through the ground, daylight savings time will soon be upon us and advertisements for The Masters golf tournament are heating up. Can play in the 2022 season of the Men’s Club of Grosse Pointe Golf League be far behind?

Although the Golf Committee is still trying to finalize details regarding Opening Day (Venue? Will another variant/ sub-variant of COVID-19 prevent us from getting together for a breakfast?), we are targeting Monday, April 25, 2022 for the start of our season. Pro Shops at local golf courses are still in hibernation mode at this time of year but should be waking up from their winter slumber soon. We will keep league members from last season apprised of developments regarding Opening Day as they become finalized, but we feel you can safely “pencil in” Monday, April 25th for the start of league play.

Registration for the 2022 season IS OPEN! Due to increased costs in expenses (yes, it’s hitting us, too!) league membership will be $60 this year and can be paid via check payable to “SMC Golf League” and mailed to: Mark Jahnke, 7 Fairlake Lane, Grosse Pointe Shores, MI 48236.

Members of the Golf Committee will also be in attendance at the Men’s Club of Grosse Pointe luncheons between now and Opening Day so membership fees can also be paid with check or cash at the luncheons.

Opening Day in 2021 was awfully cold, so we’re crossing our fingers for more agreeable weather this year. We’re also hoping that we can all get together for breakfast and have the opportunity to kick off
the season in fine fashion.

In the meantime, stay warm, and safe, and get your clubs ready for the pars and birdies that are sure to follow! And maybe even a hole in one!!
