W.A.R.T.S. 2011 Golf Schedule

Greetings all:
Only 4 weeks and a few days till golf.

We could really use some more retired men golfers from work as they ARE always welcome to join us on Wednesday mornings.  See sign up note at the bottom of the schedule.
Several tidbits to pass along:

New 2011 Tiburon:  
Very nice 27 hole course on Highway 370  we were there a few years ago.  Now were back with the help of Gordy Viner, who lives in the vicinity.

New 2011  Ashland Golf Course:  Down on the south end of Ashland on Highway 6,  Nice flat course, with some trees.   Been there in the past, under new management

At Tara Hills and Eagle Hills:
A new fleet (now a year older) of EZGO RXV golf carts at each golf course. And to make it even better, each cart will be equipped with all the amenities including GPS!

Bent Tree:
I hear the old dead tree on back nine (14 or 15?) is gone, something less to aim at, still a great course.

Stone  Creek:
We will be using a split roster 1/2  using 2 courses with the COURSE choosing between Sandstone, Grey Stone or Black Stone for our outings.

Pacific Springs:
Using the modified shotgun as we have in the past, yet I wish they will fill in the water ditch on holes 1,2, and 3!

Tregaron/Shoreline – course we have enjoyed this past year, and hopefully you will.

As in previous year, I have scheduled a couple of special outings mixed into the schedule.
Iron Horse with the shotgun start and pay as you play
Quarry Oaks- beautiful course- back for the hot dog/chips/pop plan as in past years.

Thank you,
Steve Miller – WARTS golf coordinator

George sends his greeting to all from the sunny south and says he will say hello to all when the weather gets warmer here so until then we will press on. 

Just a reminder that a bunch of us gather @ Jimbo's in LaVista on the 4th Tuesday eleven months of the year.  Last month, was the first breakfast of the new year.   Normally about 25 to 30 former Omaha Works employees gather for breakfast and conversation.  It is fun.  Tom Baye usually leads us in a brief meeting after breakfast.  Patti Sudduth is usually there.  It would be nice if more women retirees joined the group.  I know!  It’s still dark!! It's early!!!  Still hope to see you on
22 FEB 2011!  +++

 Jimbo’s Diner is located on 83rd Street about a block south of Harrison Street.   Turn south on 83rd Street from Harrison and follow 83rd, dog legging first left than right while driving to the south.  Continue south a few hundred feet and you should see the Jimbo Diner over your right shoulder.  You enter Jimbo’s Diner on the east side of the shopping center building.  Although breakfast is usually about eight o'clock, it's fun to get there about 7:30 for conversation and camaraderie.

The first Life Member Luncheon scheduled for 2011 is on 20 APR 2011.   Darwin Fager is again our Pioneer Council President.  Please put the Heartland Pioneer Council website in your “FAVORITES” folder ...  http://www.heartlandpioneers.com/
