Ms Senior Nevada Visits<br />

Carson City!<br />

By: Charlie Christy / Executive Director<br />

- Ms. Senior Nevada<br />

If you never been to our state<br />

capitol. . .for goodness sakes<br />

plan a trip to explore the fascinating<br />

town of Carson City. A group of Ms<br />

Senior Nevada gals and friends,<br />

journeyed north, and witnessed our<br />

legislature in action.<br />

You would have been proud of our<br />

gals and their interfacing with our State<br />

Senators and Assembly members who<br />

are so busy with committee meetings, etc. It’s a miracle they ever get<br />

anything accomplished, but they do.<br />

Our trip to Carson City was four days by car or two by air, via Reno. We<br />

filled every moment. The highlight is always the visit and photo op with<br />

our Governor.<br />

Add the tour of the Mansion, the Nevada State Historical Museum, the<br />

Textile Museum (former first ladies’ gowns on display) Virginia City and,<br />

of course, the many delicious eating places - including Schott’s Bakery<br />

and the World Famous Sheepherder Bread in Bishop, California, it’s a<br />

trip to remember.<br />

Plan to join us next year. You be enchanted with the area and the fine<br />

people you’ll meet.<br />

Catch A Dream... Live the Experience!<br />

Proposed Rules of Golf Changes<br />

By: Mike Landry / Golf Fore Ever<br />

The USGA and the RNA meet every four<br />

years to review and make changes to the<br />

rules of golf. This time they have combined<br />

their efforts to modernize the rules of golf and to make it easier to<br />

understand and to speed up play.<br />

Keep in mind these proposed rule changes will not go in effect until<br />

January, 2019 and the committee may decide not to implement some of<br />

them. For full details, go to: USGA.org/rules.<br />

Some proposals include - on the green, spike marks may be repaired and<br />

a ball that’s accidently kicked or moved during a practice stroke or while<br />

marking the ball is simply put back. Putting while the flag is in the hole is<br />

also allowed.<br />

Accidently kicking or stepping on your ball in the rough causing it to<br />

move, is once again, put back. Lastly, you will be allowed to identify your<br />

ball in the rough, mark it, and put it back without notify any opposing<br />

player. All of these rules with “No Penalty.”<br />

See you on the links.<br />

Mike Landry resides in Sun City MacDonald Ranch and is a member<br />

of both the Nevada State Seniors Golf Club and Winterwood Men’s<br />

Group. He can be reached at: airmikel1@cox.net<br />
