SAVE THE DATE!!
Swinging "Fore" a Cure Tournament
The annual Rally for a Cure has been expanded to include multiple cancers and will be held on Friday, Oct. 4. Proceeds from Swinging "Fore" a Cure will support the American Cancer Society - Austin, which targets multiple types of cancers. All proceeds will go to cancer research in Texas!
Various types of cancer are symbolized by color themed ribbons (blue, pink, yellow, purple, green). All golf shops will carry both men’s and women’s polos with these color themes. Stop by and choose your team colors!
Registration for the tournament begins Thursday, Aug. 15, and can be done at any of the three golf shops. Now is the time to start getting your team together!
Swinging for the "Cure" shirts will be
available at the Boutique Bazaar on Friday!

USGA RULES OF GOLF
Maximum Score / Equitable Stroke Control
Among the many changes to the USGA Rules of Golf that became effective January 1 is the concept of “Maximum Score” and, by extension, a change to Equitable Stroke Control (ESC) calculations.
Effective immediately for Sun City golfers: The Maximum Score on a given hole will be the score that nets the golfer, based on his or her handicap, a net double bogey. For example, on a par 4 the Maximum Score could be a 6, 7, 8 or 9, depending on whether the golfer receives zero, 1, 2 or 3 handicap strokes on that particular hole.
When a player reaches his or her Maximum Score, he or she is encouraged to “pick-up.” Players can, of course, continue to play out the hole beyond their Maximum Score, but are encouraged not to do so, especially if the course is crowded or if there are any issues with pace of play.

Attention Punch
Card Holders!
Now that we have reached the mid-year point we are seeing many punch card holders, especially 25 and 50 round punch card holders, running low or are out of rounds. To check on your status, you may inquire in the golf shops or review your monthly statement.

Buying More Rounds
To buy more rounds, you may do so in minimum quantities of ten rounds at the same per round rate. You may also pay as you go at the same per round rate. However, given the amount of time until the end of the year, and for efficiency at check-in, we encourage golfers to go with the minimum of ten (10) rounds. Of course you can buy more than ten but the purchase still needs to be in increments of ten. Twenty-five (25) rounds is also an option.

We ask that every golf cart have an ID sticker. These stickers are free and you can get them at the Member Services Office or any golf shop.
It’s a simple process. All that is needed is a sticker affixed at the bottom/middle of your windshield. This is an important item which allows us to identify who you are in the event of an emergency.
