Whitefish Women 18 Hole Golf League
The Whitefish Women's 18 Hole League held the two-day championship on Aug 17-18 with 22 players participating.

The Overall Low Gross Winner was Barb Hanson with 181, followed by 2nd Low Gross of 185 by Janice DuBois. In the Championship Flight, the Low Net went to Maxine Riches with 158. (No player was eligible for both the gross and net places in her flight.)

The Whitefish Women's 18 Hole League hosted the 2010 Whitefish Invitational on Wednesday, August 25th. The 84 participants represented Whitefish, Cuyuna, Tianna, Breezy Point, Eagle's Ridge, Blueberry Pines, Golden Eagle, Pine River and Pheasant Acres. The "CASINO" theme was carried out in every way, from the black, red and white color theme in the members' dress, to the various casino games painted on the green felt table decorations. Chips and cards were everywhere, on hats, signs, and tables. Nancy Schmidt and Marguerite Baker were Co-Chairs of the event, with Linda Randall chairing the decorations. Joi Brandt organized the breakfast buffet, and worked with Bogey's to provide a lunch of assorted wraps and salads and dessert.

The Game of the Day was a NET BEST BALL for 2 person teams. The teams were flighted, and awards were given to the top 5 teams in each of the 4 flights, with ties broken by the team net score for the last 9 holes.

In Flight A, Kris Hasskamp and Cathy Aykens of Cuyuna took 1st place with a team net of 65. Diann Howell and Sandy Secora of Tianna also had a team net of 65, followed by Joan Hasskamp and Debbie Enger (Cuyuna) at 66, Chris Miller and Sandy Arcand (Cuyuna) at 67, and Enga Wodziak and Marguerite Baker (Whitefish) at 68.

In Flight B, Cuyuna's Sharon Wood and Lorraine Stelter took 1st place with a net 61, followed by Kim Rasmussen and JanaKaye Husby (Blueberry Pines) with 64, Darlene Palmer and Ruth Teideman (Breezy) with 64, Whitefish's Judy Johnson/Judy Eastwood, and Diane Giefer/Cheryl Bontrager with 67.

In Flight C, Sandy O'Day and Bunny Oseland of Breezy shot a 62 to take 1st place. Breezy's Sue Marsolais and Kathy McTague took 2nd place with 63. Also from Breezy, Bonnie Person and Martha Polsfuss shot 65 for 3rd place, Maxine Riches and Shari Loechler (Whitefish) were at 66, and Eagle Ridge's Barb Matanich and Jean Carlson took 5th place with 67.

In Flight D, Bev Pearson and Ruth Marschinke of Pheasant Acres of Hanover took 1st place with a 62 - and also drove the farthest distance. Sharon Keister (Whitefish) and Carol Lenander (Tianna) took 2nd with 65, while Barb Owens and Jan Benson (Breezy) shot 66, Eileen Henderson and Sylvian Schmitt (Breezy) and Cheryl Hill and Mary Becker (Tianna) both shot 67.

In the proximity events, for those with handicaps of 26 or less, Janice DuBois had the Longest Drive, Anita Stensby got Closest to the Pin, and Linda Randall had the Longest Putt - all from Whitefish. In the category with handicaps of 27 or more, Kathy McTague (Breezy) took Long Drive, Bunny Oseland (Breezy) had Closest to the Pin, and Sharon Wood (Cuyuna) had the Longest Putt.

Of the 80 people who entered the contest to hit within the circle drawn on the Par 3 Hole #12, there were 14 who made it and shared in the winnings.

Barb Smith (Whitefish) and Sharon Wood (Cuyuna) each won in the 50/25/25 drawing. A Money Hat decorated with dollar bills, and baskets of handmade gifts, liquor, coffee, games and golf items were raffled during the luncheon and awards presentation.

The Whitefish Women's League would like to thank all of the many volunteers that helped to make this event a success with their donations of goods for the raffle baskets, and for the creativity and hours of effort into the decorating, to the spotters and to the men who volunteered to handle bags and track scoring.
