BBR Women’s Golf Club invites new members

The Black Butte Ranch Women’s Golf Club (BBRWGC) launched its season on May 17, with a two-person scramble and get-together. There’s still room for more women to join the group. Members encourage anyone interested in joining to contact steering committee member Jane Slingsby at [email protected] Even with the first event taking place, it’s still a great time to join.

“I have been a member of the BBRWGC for several years, and I have so enjoyed all the women I have met and played with over the years. The Tuesday game days are organized so we can play with different women each week. All the women in the BBRWGC are so friendly and supportive,” said Slingsby. “We are always looking for new members to join us on Tuesdays throughout the summer. You do not have to be a Black Butte Ranch homeowner to join this group. If you are interested, come play with us and see for yourself!”

Golfers of all abilities will play BBR’s two championship golf courses, Big Meadow and Glaze Meadow. A $50 fee per season includes a free clinic, and three tournaments and other prizes. Regular green fees are paid by each member with discounted green fees for first-time players. Call the BBR Pro Shop for further information: 541-595-1545.

Members describe the club as a noncompetitive, fun-loving group of women who enjoy the game of golf as much as each other’s company. For Sisters Country women who aren’t homeowners on the Ranch, the incredible setting for both golf courses and the Cascade Range views, open meadows full of grazing horses, delicious dining, and other amenities makes spending time on the Ranch a quintessential Central Oregon experience. The club is a good way to get some time on the greens and fairways while improving your game and meeting new friends in a beautiful setting.

For women who prefer playing nine holes, there’s a group for that too. To learn more about the nine-hole golf group contact Sue Tower at [email protected] or the BBR Pro Shop. They play on Mondays and/or Thursdays in the morning. This fun, relaxed group has no fee to join.
