Comrades;

GOLF OUTING FRIDAY 5 DEC 0800: We will start this convention with a “Friendly Round of Golf” This is not a tournament, just a group of guys (and girls) who want to play a round. We will play an inexpensive club about 35 KM north of town, on the Philippines Naval Base At San Antonio. (San Miguel) This is a 12 hole course that we will play at 18 by replaying 5 through 10. (Par 72). The cost is $25.00 including Caddy (required) and a small donation for gas for the driver who will provide your transportation. This is a cheap round and even if you have never played before, one of your companions will be willing to share his clubs with you. Duffers, bring your clubs. The course has only 2 sets of rental clubs. We’ll leave the Post at 08:00 (5 Dec.).
