From the President
Another tremendous year for
WJGA!!! Our terrific staff and fabulous volunteers conducted 38
tournaments, and created wonderful opportunities for our young
competitive athletes to perform, learn life skills, make friends, and
enjoy themselves. Our graduates continue to learn and grow as 98
played college golf in the state of Washington and many more did so
around the country.
We are so grateful for the
overwhelming support provided by our volunteers, parents, and sponsors -
you are AWESOME!!!
Our two graduates that spoke
at the state banquet emphasized their valuable learnings while a WJGA
participant and characterize a valuable principle: the process is often
more important than the product.
Golfers are instructed to
focus in the present, fine tune their skills/processes/routines, and let
the outcomes take of themselves. Easier said than learned for
most. The nurturing of excellence and recognizing its value is a
responsibility we take seriously. Each year we marvel at the
improved skill, the joy of the pursuit, and the satisfactions of
fulfilling more of their potential.
Enjoy the journey.

From the Executive Director
In thanking our volunteers we sometimes
overlook the loyal rules officials who play such a key role at our
tournaments. Our special thanks go to Don Fossum, our state
rules chairman, who also acts as the rules chair in District 3 and
as our state tournament coordinator.
The rules teams are
directed in the other districts by: District 1, Mark Merryman;
District 2, Ed Lockner; District 3, Don Fossum; District 4, Annette
Cook; District 5, Susan Prugh; District 6, Mike Peluso.
Susan Prugh has been
named to the USGA Girls' Championship Committee, and we congratulate
her on this recognition of her many contributions to junior golf.
We look forward to a
great 2008 season and a wonderful State Championship from July
30-August 1 in Spokane.
