Notes from President of VGA Jim Cox
To VGA Members, (2/16/2026) Highlights from the 2026 Board Meeting: TPO Dates – May 30th and 31st. Golf Rates are $33.00 higher than last year. Prize Money $1,200 from the Treasury payable to 2 flights. Hotel room block available at a room rate of $99.00 per night plus tax and a resort fee. When making your reservation, provide the agent with the following group code: b70517
Prize Money Forfeiture: The board decided to revise Local VGA Rule 5. They changed it from a 30-day holding period to a maximum of 60 days. The rule reads as follows: After 45 days for an unclaimed prize, a coordinator will email the player. If there is no response from the player after 60 days, the prize money will be forfeited to the Treasury. The player has a 2-week response time.
The board decided to eliminate the following prizes: Low Net and Most Improved Golfer. These changes impact Local VGA Rules 25b and 25c.
Club Championship: Dates to fall between last week in September to the middle of October. To be narrowed down soon. We will let you know as soon as possible including the hotel room rate.
