Dear Members,

February may not be filled with many playing opportunities, but it does offer some other fun activities. We'll be volunteering at the Red Dress Dash to benefit the American Heart & Stroke Associations and at Ronald McDonald House Charities. We’ll be Shaking the Cobwebs off our golf clubs and swings at Robin Nigro Golf Academy on the 20th. Please come out and bring a friend who may be interested in EWGA. Yes, leave your warm homes and join your fellow EWGA members at these events because it will be FUN!

I hope to see you there, and on the course soon!

Sandy

EWGA KC Metro Gives Back
Volunteers Needed

Go Red For Women:

EWGA KC has chosen several charities to support in 2016.  We will continue our support of SAFEHOME, Women's Intersport Network (WIN) for KC, and the fight against breast cancer.  Our newest addition is Go Red for Women.   The American Heart Association created Go Red For Women to dispel myths that heart disease was a man's disease and to raise awareness of heart disease & stroke as the number one killer of women.  Go Red For Women is a passionate, emotional, social initiative designed to empower women to take charge of their heart health.

EWGA KC is looking for 5 to 10 volunteers to help with the Red Dress Dash on Friday, February 5. The dash will be held in the Kansas City Power and Light District and volunteers will be handing out shirts and bags to the "Red Dress Dashers."   Volunteers will meet at 4:15 with the actual Dash expected to take place around 6:15.

If you're interested in volunteering for Go Red For Women, please e-mail Suzy Koelling by Thursday, January 28th and we will provide you with more information about this event.

~~~~~~~~~

Ronald McDonald House Charities:

Would you like to cook a meal?  Come join us to cook dinner for 25 - 30 people at the Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) on Cherry Street, Friday, February 26.  The Ronald McDonald Houses are a “Home Away From Home” for thousands of families every year who must travel to the Kansas City area to receive medical treatment for a sick or injured child. Together, the three Ronald McDonald Houses (Cherry Street House, Longfellow House and Wylie House) provide temporary lodging to as many as 80 families each night while their children undergo vital medical care.

9 Volunteers (Chefs) will arrive at 4:15 p.m. and should be finished by 7:30 p.m.  All chefs must be free of any contagious illness to participate.   More details will follow once the group has been selected. 

If you would like to volunteer, please contact Suzy Koelling by February 15.  Please indicate you would like to volunteer for the Cherry Street Give Back Event.   


 
Shake off the Cobwebs volunteers:
EWGA-KC is looking for 5 volunteers for Shake off the Cobwebs event on Saturday, February 20, 12:00 p.m. at Robin Nigro Golf Academy located at 1 East 135th St., KCMO 64145.  We will need 2 volunteers for the check-in table and 3 for the cash bar, who will need to arrive by 11:30. If you're interested in volunteering to help with Shake off the Cobwebs, please contact Dodie Bull by February 12th.

Volunteer Photographer:
Are you handy with a camera?  We need people to photograph Spring Tee Off, Chapter Championship and other events.  This might be perfect for someone who is not ready or able to play in a tournament but would like to be part of the fun! Duties would entail taking photos during the event and uploading them. Please contact Dodie Bull if interested.
