2012 SLGA Annual General Meeting
The SLGA AGM took place yesterday January 28th at the Dewars Centre in Perth and was attended by Captain Sandie Streets, Vice-Captain Sheila Adams and Secretary Fiona Collier along with several other Ayrshire County members.
The outgoing SLGA president Emma Wilson opened the meeting by paying tribute to Moira Milton, Liz Miskimmin and Moira Thomson who had all passed away in the last year and a minutes silence was observed in their memory.
The SLGA Chairman, Ayrshire's Shona Malcolm, gave a synopsis of her Annual Report which was followed by the Financial Director Lynne Terry's detailed revue of the accounts. Lorna Bennett, the Scottish representative on the Executive Council of the LGU then gave her annual report.
Margaret MacNaughton was elected as the new President and the 12 Vice-Presidents (including Ayrshire's Nancy Chisholm) were all re-elected.
ALCGA's Isabel Crawford was elected to the board in charge of training replacing Beth Paterson who has retired after 4 years.
Lynne Terry steps down as Finance Director (after 10 years service) as will Company Secretary Sheila Hartley who retires in February. Lynne Terry and Jean McEwan were re-appointed as the Scottish representatives on CONGU.
Two new Scottish Selectors were appointed - Noreen Fenton (East) and Addi Shamash (South). Anne Laing (West) and Cara Gruber (North) remain as selectors for a second year. Isabel Crawford was re-appointed as the Scottish Representative on the International Selection Committee of the LGU and her deputy is Fiona de Vries.
There was no further discussion on the amalgamation with the SGU as a new Amalgamation Chairman has just been appointed so further talks will now be resumed.
AOB The use of Distance Measuring Devices was brought up. The SLGA are still following the R&A advice, however, Shona Malcolm did state that with so many Clubs and Organisations allowing their use she was sure that this would possibly have to change - heres hoping!!
There being no further business the meeting was closed.

Dear Member
Firstly may I wish you a Happy New Year and good golfing in 2012, I hope that this year will not be as wet and windy as 2011.
I am delighted to have taken over as County Captain and hope that my two years in office will be as successful as the last two years have been, both on and off the golf course.
The County always appreciates your support especially in the current economic climate. We try to get value for money regarding courses, but as more golf clubs struggle to make ends meet, this becomes more difficult. We are hopeful that the increase in H’cap will encourage more ladies to join – perhaps you could help by encouraging the lady members at your club.
Enclosed with this letter is your “new look” fixture card. The County mobile phone number is on the back page along with the names and e-mail addresses of the Committee. If you are unable to attend a fixture on the day of competition through being stuck in traffic or delayed for any reason, please use the County mobile no. to get in touch with whoever is on desk duty. This will save club secretaries or professionals having their busy days interrupted bringing messages to the desk.
Our golf season starts with the County Championships at Troon Ladies Golf Club from Tuesday 10th to Thursday 12th April. Please have your entries with the secretary either by post or e-mail (secretary@alcga.com) by 1st March.
The Inter-County Match Week will be held at Cardross from Mon. 21st – Wed. 23rd June. Your support is invaluable both as a spectator or a trolley-puller. The sight of lots of green jumpers boosts the team’s morale no end. Sheila Shedden is taking on the job of Caddy Mistress so please volunteer your services, even if you can only manage ½ a day it would be appreciated. I am hopeful that we can continue the run of good form that saw the team become runners-up in the Scottish County Finals last September.
This year the Curtis Cup is coming to Scotland and will be played at Nairn Golf Club from 8th – 10th June. Sheila Adams is our “ambassador” and will be happy to give you any information regarding tickets etc.
In the meantime I look forward to seeing you all on the golf course throughout the year and thank you again for your continued support,
Yours
Sandie Streets

Despite the recent terrible weather all first round matches of the Winter Fours have been completed. Lets hope the Quarter Finals will have the same success.
A quick reminder that subs are now due and need to be paid to the treasurer Mrs. Jill West before the end of January
May I wish all our members a Merry Christmas and good golfing in 2012
