Ladies On The Links It Is Not Too Late To Make Plans To Join The Fun! By Fran Danek and Phyllis Wayco As the “snowbirds” are slowly making their way south and the “locals” are tuning up their games, the Wednesday morning Ladies’ League is gearing up for another fun and competitive season. The league will again be headed
this season by Fran Danek and Phyllis Wayco. We are extending a “welcome back” to returning players and a “welcome to the group” to any ladies playing with us for the first time. All are encouraged to join in on the fun. League play will begin on Nov. 1. We will then begin play at 8:15 a.m. with assigned tee times. Don’t forget to sign up in the ladies’ locker room in advance (by Sunday morning before each Wednesday you intend to play). The fee for the league is $25 for the season to be paid on the
first day you play. Check the postings in the locker room for additional information regarding weekly games and results. All handicaps are invited to join our league and you can be a part of the action whether you can play part of the time or the whole season from November through the end of March. Feel free to call Fran at (989) 684-0156 if you have any questions or concerns. See you on the course in November!
To fill the need at home we have added more programs for our community to serve our in-need and homeless veterans and their families. A d d i t i o n s To T h e Mission In 2019, we started our Backpack for Homeless and In-Need Veterans Program partnering with the VA and various homeless coalitions. Our backpacks are filled with personal care items, high protein snacks and information on where to get help. In 2020, we began distributing bulk food drops to our inneed veterans and their families through the VA food pantry. In 2021 our local VA Clinic asked us if we could help fill a need in our community. We were asked if we could provide
tents and water filtration bottles for our veterans who are losing their homes during the current housing crisis.
Holiday4Heroes “We Give Because They Give” Who Are We? Holiday4Heroes was founded in 2007 by Jonette Kessack, who owned a postage and wine store. This grassroots effort was started to fill a need to provide comfort and care to our deployed men and women all over the world. We are a group of team members, volunteers and business owners who had a desire to show our military that we remember them and appreciate their sacrifices for us. What Do We Do? What started as a holiday program, our first year sending 40 packages, became a year-round effort. We now send 100 to 200 comfort packages each month to our brave men and women, and 1,000 packages for our holiday mission. We have now sent almost a total of 20,000 packages.
