Due to a surprise snowfall that closed the golf course, Ranchette Putters had to delay welcoming their new board. The ladies meet every Wednesday morning on the 18-hole putting green to test and improve their skills. Laughter, encouragement and hearty congratulations are often heard during their sessions. Putting is always followed by social time, including monthly meetings.

Our club also hosted a co-ed group from Robson Ranch and enjoyed a session of sunset couples golf with our own spouses/friends. Independence Day and Halloween were celebrated with holiday obstacles decorating the course. Several continental brunches included presentations by our sponsors.
Finally, SBR Golf Pros Mike Jahaske and Ken Steinke provided a Putting Clinic that included a group lesson and one-on-one training. 2018 proved to be a banner year, full of fun activities arranged by our tireless outgoing board. Congratulations to all of them on a superb job.
