Lou ’ s News: The “ Big 18” golf course at ORPS is truly one of the finest and best maintained 18 - hole par 3 courses I have ever seen. However, with the tremendous amount of play and traffic it receives, it is truly under pressure. November alone saw
over 4,000 rounds. That ’ s up 34% from last year. After recently walking this entire course, it is evident “ your help is NEEDED ”!! In order to keep and maintain our beautiful course, I ’ m asking all of you to, not only fix your divots and ball marks, but commit to fixing “5” others as well. We all need to “ chip in ”. Lou Eiguren , Golf Coordinator
Happy New Year everyone. Hope this finds you safe in the resort again and ready to participate in our upcoming events. First of all, the Sweetheart Tournament scheduled for Friday and Saturday, February 10 and 11 , is a favorite here in ORPS. You ’ re more than welcome to participate but be sure to have 5 scores from the Big 18 registered by January 31 , 2023. Renters are welcome to participate. Also, because Nine and Wine was so popular, we ’ re planning to have one once a month . Keep an eye on the calendar to see when that is happening. Live Scoring during tournaments is helping to speed up results. There are TVs located on various lots throughout the course displaying up - to - date scoring. Are we moving well into the 21st century or what? Paper scorecards are still in use for confirmation, so that brings us back to Earth. I was also told that if you take your smartphone off WIFI, live scoring might be a little quicker. Guess it all depends what your cell phone plan offers. A big thanks to Phil Sanstrum for keeping us out of the dark ages. Many Holes in One have been made since the season started. If you ordered a bag tag , be sure to check with the Starter Shack. They should have it (provided I get the reports and money, put the order in, wait 7 days to hear from Powers Awards, pick the tags up, check the order, then pass them on to the Starter Shack for distribution). Remember, if you want your name in the “ Oracle ”, fill out a form so we can publish it. Fred , no need for you to let us know. We know you made one on December 6 and it was hole in one # 36. Congratulations! On another note, for any of you that have a handicap flag for the golf course, you need to pay the annual renewal fee of $20 to cover the trail fee, as stated in the Golf Rules & Regulations Section 5, 5.E., 1. So, until next month -- think nice thoughts, have fun , and don ’ t sweat the small stuff.
