A
s the 2011 golf season draws to a
close, preparations for the MGA's
annual meeting and awards banquet
are well underway. At the annual meeting,
committees meet, the formal business
of the MGA is conducted and new
offi cers and directors are elected. At the
awards banquet, we recognize our champions
and volunteers, honor our Players of
the Year and generally celebrate amateur
golf in Minnesota.
And none of this would happen without
you.
When you join your club or league each
season, you are also joining the MGA as
an associate member. Your participation
in the MGA associate member program
is what enables all the programs, services
and events we run throughout the year.

in the state.
You support a lobbyist at the state Capitol,
which keeps us in touch with legislative

in Minnesota.

University of Minnesota, announced
the hiring of two new golf coaches:
Michele Redmond, the head women's

men's golf coach.
Redmond is a 20-year veteran on
the LPGA Tour (she has two wins

a distinguished golf career at Indiana

All-Big Ten selection and a two-time
All-American. She competed in three
NCAA championships.
Carlson gets the nod as the men's

the University of Wisconsin, winning
three times, and won 14 times as a professional,
including consecutive Tapemark
Pro-Ams. Carlson is a former
MGA Players' (match play) champion
and a member of the victorious Minnesota
