Membership Discount Card
Starting this year, Metro Seniors will issue a Membership Discount Card instead of the Super Saver Coupon Book. This will be a numbered (the number will NOT be your ID#) plastic card the same size as a credit card that you can easily carry in your wallet. The card will be good for the current year from a period of April 1st to March 31st of the following year. If everything goes as expected, the card will be offered in succeeding years. Of course, there will be a different color scheme on the card each year. The card will have to be signed on the back in order to be valid.
The cards will be handed out at the March Meeting at your Division tables. If you cannot attend the meeting, then see your Division VP for your card at one of your normal weekly Division tournaments.
We have contracted with over 30 courses and golf stores to give you discounts equivalent to or better than the Super Saver Coupon Book.
You will only get one card, so don’t lose it! Use the cards as much as you can (they are not valid for the weekly tournaments), The more the cards are used, the more likely the courses and stores will be to want to participate in the future.
Metro St. Louis Seniors Golf Association will be having a collection drive at our Spring General Meeting, March 22, for the 1st Tee of Greater St. Louis.
Equipment donations to the 1st Tee of Greater St. Louis will help many local kids get involved in the game of golf who otherwise would not be able to learn and play the game.

Accepted equipment are golf bags, individual woods, full sets and individual irons, putters, golf shoes (pairs), golf balls. Golf bags with brand names of alcohol beverages ARE NOT ACCEPTED.

==============================================
Reservations and Payment for Special Event Tournaments are changing!
President Rick Hines has lead an effort to move the Association to faster, easier, and more accurate management of our Special Events Registration. This will be more electronic in communication and payment. More of the effort will be automated making it easier for our volunteers.
The Executive Committee and the Finance Committee have reviewed the systems and agreed to move forward on electronic systems (registrations online) and payment (credit and debit cards). This starts in 2016 with the Special Events Tournaments.
SPECIAL EVENT REGISTRATION – Paper or Plastic?
SPECIAL EVENT REGISTRATION STARTS – January 1, 2016
We will have all the parts working and ready to go by the end of 2015. We will begin accepting registrations on January 1, 2016.
More information will be posted here shortly. Check back soon.
We will keep the special event tee locations by flight as they were last year.
The actual tee placements and colors will vary from course to course so the Event Leaders for each event will announce the actual tee locations before the tournament begins.
This information will be added to the Special Events Schedule and Rules.
