The Midnight Madness Night Golf tournament, scheduled
for this Friday (March 12th), will be cancelled due to the

the tournament.

Bruce discussed the EWMGA
Spring Kick-Off Fundraiser scheduled to be held on
Saturday afternoon (May 1ST). This will be a pig roast with
all food and soft drinks donated by Canongate/Eagle Watch
Club. There will be a cash bar with proceeds going to the
Club. This will be an open event (not just EWMGA members)
but limited to the first 100 participants. Sign-ups will be
sold at $15 for each participant and arrangements are being
coordinated by Jim Sims for the sign-ups tickets to be sold
by the restaurant staff and at the door during the event.
Jim will coordinate with Bruce regarding these
arrangements. Participants will be issued nametags at the
event entrance. The event poster was reviewed and it was
emphasized that all Board members must strongly advertise
this fundraiser to assure success.
The new EWMGA Logo design was briefly discussed. It
was decided by the Board members present that Gary will be
authorized to select the final design since the Board vote
was evenly divided between the final two selections.
