THANK YOU GREENBRIAR!!!

A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Community

Five years ago, the Oceanaire Women’s Golf Association partnered with Providence House, a subsidiary of Catholic Charities, to raise money for domestic violence abuse victims in Ocean County. While on a visit to the office in Whiting, we were offered a trip to the safe house where hundreds of victims find a safe haven from abuse on a yearly basis. Our annual golf tournament and luncheon, partnered with the Men’s Club for raffles and volunteers, has raised over $70,000 in these past five years. Each year we seem to surpass our goal, and our community will be donating over $21,000 through corporate and personal donations, local merchandise, and our street campaign this year alone!

For more than 25 years, Providence House Domestic Violence Services of Catholic Charities has worked to end the cycle of domestic abuse through education, empowerment and advocacy while providing a safe haven from abuse. Services offered by Providence House are free and confidential. Thus, our donation assists with the following services:

Emergency Safe House which offers a safe haven for those who need to escape, rest and recover. The homelike setting at the Safe House and caring staff help victims break free from their abusive lives.

Free Counseling Services are conducted at the Outreach Counseling Center in Whiting.

Intensive creative arts therapy for children (PALS) among other counseling programs for children of domestic abuse.

Services for Older Victims of Domestic Abuse for those victims age 50 and older. Services are tailored to meet the differing needs of adults who: are being abused by their adult children; are in long-term abusive relationships; or may have had healthy relationships previously, but have recently begun a new relationship that has become abusive.

Their 24-Hour Hotline:

800-246-8910

732-244-8259

Again, a heartfelt thank you to our community from the OWGA and from Providence House is extended to the residents of Greenbriar Oceanaire!

2018 SEASON GUIDELINES

No Dues will be collected – All women who are full or associate members of the Greenbriar Golf Club with a handicap are members of the OWGA - All Ladies Day Events are open to all women members of the Greenbriar Oceanaire Golf Club with a handicap. If you don’t currently have a handicap, please see the Pro Shop and they will help you get started. Playing one time before the start of the season will give you a “Trending Handicap” – so in order to play in the Ladies Day Events beginning May 10th, you just need to play once and then check in with the Pro Shop and they will help you get that “Trending Handicap”. The preseason Ladies Day Events scheduled for April 19^th, April 26^th and May 3^rd can be used to create your “Trending Handicap”.

All activities – golf, nine & wine, luncheons – are on a pay as you go basis

All women will be able to switch back & forth from 9 hole to 18 hole play as long as handicap requirements are met. The Pro Shop has assigned the following handicaps to be able to play:
- 18 Holes – 0 to 40 Handicap (over 40 with approval from Golf Pro)
- 9 Holes – Any Handicap

Fees will be $7 per week for 18 Holers and $5 per week for 9 Holers. $1 per person will be held for end of year prizes. The remaining money will be distributed as prizes that week with separate pots for 18 versus 9 holers. The number of winners & the amount will be determined by the number of participants and the Tournament format.

On extremely hot or Cart Path only days, the Tournament will be 9 Holes for all golfers (OWGA liaison & Golf Pro decision). Players can play 18 Holes but only first 9 Holes will count for the tournament.

The Pro Shop has established the following maximum strokes for 9 Hole Individual Events:
- Par 3 – 6 strokes
- Par 4 – 10 strokes
- Par 5 – 10 strokes

Sign-up for Ladies Day will be on the Bulletin Board outside of the Pro Shop only. Sign-up must be done by 6:00 am on the Wednesday before Ladies Day. Luncheon sign-ups are separate.

Luncheon Days: Because of scheduling conflicts, not all the Luncheon Scramble days are on the 2^nd Thursday. Please refer to the 2018 OWGA Tournament Schedule and Flyers for Activity Dates

9 holers will have the option of playing with the 18 holers. However, we are also offering the option for a separate 9 Hole Scramble. There will be a minimum of 8 players needed to play for prizes.
1^st place prizes will be awarded.
2^nd & 3^rd place prizes will depend on the number of people who have signed up
Closest to the Pin and Closest to the line prizes will also be awarded
