Club Championship

The Port Ludlow Women’s Golf League’s (PLWGA) annual three-day Club Championship for 18-hole golfers was played in late August and early September. It culminated with a delicious early dinner celebration at Beth Weaver’s home overlooking Port Ludlow Bay. The winners of the tournament were announced in the following categories: Club Champion (low gross winner) was Bonnie Vahcic, and Low Net Champion of the Field was Cyndy Kelly. (Net scores result from the deduction of the person’s GHIN handicap from the person’s gross scores.)

PLYC Website

The wonders of the San Juan Islands were in their full glory this July as Port Ludlow Yacht Club (PLYC) cruisers and land cruisers visited four marinas (Roche, Deer, Friday, and Rosario) and several anchorages (Parks Bay, Reid Harbor, Garrison, Sucia, and Hunter Bay) over a two week period of time on the Commodore’s Cruise. Each location brought its own special delight.

What was Trails up to in August and early September? (Yep, we write this in September for publication in October so it’s always 2 months out of date.) Well, besides putting the final touches on the vegetation for the Volkswalk route, a dedicated crew finished (over the past 4 months) installing the new rock pathway for the Interpretive Trail.
