January was a fantastic start to the year for the Niners! Despite chilly weather, more than 20 ladies came out to play on each of the play days, and we were excited to welcome five new Niners to the group. We held our first Charm Day of the year in January, with Laura Gross taking home the Charm Day honors. At lunch, we played From
Here to the Fairway, a fun and engaging game that highlighted where everyone grew up before finding their way to California and Blackhawk.

Even though the SF 9’ers didn’t make it to Super Bowl LX this year, the Blackhawk Niners showed awesome team spirit by dressing up in their favorite football gear, including lots of 49’ers colors.
A warm welcome to our newest members, Jesica
McQuire, Mary Maag, Barbara Carlson, Kris Ruzich and Chen Chen Kan. If you are new to golf, returning to regular play or looking to golf with a great group of ladies, check us out! Contact our membership chair, Lil Giovanzana at lgiovanzana@gmail.com
