The JGA tournament for May was cancelled due to weather. The tournament committee tried to make the best decision based on the weather Saturday morning. We appreciate all who signed up and supported our first tournament of the year. We will see you all for our Member Guest at the beginning of July.
Thanks for all who came out to eat Friday after gang play! We had a great turnout with the men's and ladies' golf associations for our town appreciation lunch. The Town of Jamestown provided burgers and hot dogs. The food was great and the fellowship was even better. Thanks again to our Town Manager Matt Johnson and for the acknowledgement. We greatly appreciate it. Also thanks to Parks and Recreation Department Head Scott Coakley for organizing the cookout and putting everything together.
See everyone at the course soon.

To all JGA Members:
The November Turkey Tournament has been postponed due to The Town of Jamestown having to start work to fix a leak in the dam on hole number 4. The project will take 2 to 3 weeks and the front nine will be closed during this project. We will hopefully find a date to reschedule in the near future. Stay tuned for further details.
JGA WINS THE BIG 4 CHALLENGE!
We played Bryan Park, Greensboro National and Pine Knolls at each course including Jamestown Park. Each association brought 24 players and the best 20 scores counted. We used the handicap index from the tee you played that was age based. Each player tried to match the amount of points that represented the best you would do from that tee.
I list the players who played for us at one or more courses: Glenn Alspaugh, Dave Anderson, Vince Avera, Larry Blackwood, David Boger, Tom Brereton, Melvin Brower, Ronnie Dennis, Don Douglass, George Erath, Tom Faytol, Mark Felts, Gary Fulp, Jay Gardner, Charlie Gibson, Joe Gray, Stafford Gray, Todd Gurley, Ronnie Hancock, Jim Hanson, Larry Henderson, Will Hendren, Commie Johnson, George Kennon, Barry Knight, Frank Landing, Joel Lawson, Mike Mann, Phil Marsom, John Maynard, Julius Maynor, David Millis, Chris McKay, Glenn Meredith, Scotty Odell, Dan Pfabe, Shawn Prairie, Ron Schott, Dave Reynolds, Dave Schwanke, Ron Shelton, Joe Simmons, Norm Smith, Tom Tervo, Michael Thompson, Jim Welch.

We won 3 of the 4 matches to win the Big 4 Challenge Trophy. Many of our guys had outstanding outings.
John Maynard and I thank all of you for participating. We also thank Joe Simmons for helping us in many ways with these outings. We met a lot of very nice players at the other courses and had a lot of fun socializing with them. We appreciate the hospitality from each host course. Jamestown Park definitely played tough. GR-National gave it a run today as the greens dried out and picked up speed. We appreciate the hard work the other courses and association leaders put into each outing.
Thanks,
Frank Landing
