Treasurer's Report: Terry Shipp reported for Tom Lockette on the Financial Highlights: Our revenues are up considerably... I'm sure this is from special effort going into the 19th Hole with special meals. ...In time I think we are going to turn ourselves around here because we are getting more revenues at the 19th Hole and more play at the golf course.

Deb's Diamondhead Divas - Race for the Cure
Deb’s Diamondhead Divas have raised over $4,500 for
The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure! Now over $5,000.00 - Four Season's Golf Club donated $200.00 !
This special group of women got together in the summer of 2009 when they found out their dear friend Deborah Farrar was diagnosed with breast cancer, and began chemotherapy and radiation treatments earlier that year.
Over the past year, the Divas group has grown from 18 original members to over 35! Monthly meetings are held, dues collected and over $4,500 has been raised from the Divas’ fundraising efforts, plus many friends and family.
Deborah has now begun another round of chemo, and we are all holding her up in prayer.
This will be the second year that the Divas will be participating in the Race for the Cure. We are proud of our accomplishment, and are proud of Deborah for being the strong fighter, great friend and wonderful person that she is.
There is always room for new Divas! We are beginning a new year of activities, meetings and fundraisers. If you have any questions about joining our group or just want more information, please call Deborah Farrar (262-4486), Kathy Pearce (781-5540), Angie MacFarlane (262-1895) or Laurie Timmons (262-0038).
Thank you to everyone who has contributed to our goal and to this very important cause.
