Dear Amoco Golfers,
We play next at WindRose Golf Course on Tuesday 19September. I understand that the course was not subjected to any damage due to Hurricane Harvey. Thank God. As advertised by the club, the course is a golfer’s favorite, due to its excellent golf course conditions and one of the best greens around. This 18-hole championship layout features lush fairways that meander through century old Oak and Pine trees. Strategic water hazards and substantial sand bunkering add to the aesthetics and integrity of this great track. Risk and reward is the name of the game on the par 3’s, as all of them are guarded by water. WindRose offers a challenge to players of all skill levels looking for some great Houston golf.
So, don’t miss out of the fun. There is no rain in the forecast and even though the temperatures may be in the 80s, the humidity should be in our favor.
Please don’t forget to register. I am looking forward to seeing all of you.
Regards
Jide Ayo-Vaughan (713) 253-5244

We will be playing next at Lake Windcrest on Tuesday 12Sept. Right now only 9 people have signed up. Things may still be slow as the city is just coming back after the effect of hurricane Harvey.

The following play format will be used: · Front 9 – Play your own ball and record two (2) low net scores.
