I’m conscious that I haven’t been chatting too much on here the last week. So I thought I’d give you all an update before you think I don’t like you.
We’ve over a hundred members now with 8 active chapters and Interim Captains in place who are reaching out, consolidating their membership. Every one of the chapters are already looking at dates and venues for a schedule of golf and meets.
On top of that, it seems we’ve started a little community with members from one area inviting members from another to play socially, which I’ve always wanted. If this works the way I envisioned it the RACDG will give all of us a network of playing partners and good golf around the world.
The Captains have been discussing a bunch of things, including a potential global society wide Ryder Cup match on the Thursday and Friday of the actual 2020 Whistling Straits Ryder Cup at nearby Sand Valley. We’ll then all go together to watch the RC singles on Sunday. How fun will that be!
We’ve also been working on logos and I’m hoping to get on the merch trail asap. A few RACDG bucket hats would look good I think.
Behind the scenes everyone is busy setting this society up and figuring out what it is and what it could be. It’s a strong start and we all have big plans so sit back, relax and wait to see what happens.
I’ve added myself, Scotsman from Aberdeen area living in Sydney. Would be great to get an Australian leg set up and maybe even get a game with the GB&I crowd when home!
If we are indeed calling dibs, I humbly request to Your Grace the possibility for the US NE chapter to utilize the beauty and elegance that is the historic high-crown visor for our chapter’s sheep logo.
Just a heads up for all yous lovely guys who might be interested in quality, CHEAP golf attire … Fairway and Greene is currently running 70% OFF their sale items. Great place for a holiday gift or three
As you can see we’ve got no following or anything to post BUT WE’VE GOT THE HANDLE!
If your chapters are doing anything worthy of notice, go ahead and send it to RACDGSocial@gmail.com.
Also, if anyone has any experience growing a social media following or managing social media in general, advice would be greatly appreciated. In the meantime I’m going to see what all the millennials* on youtube have to say about growing a following.
If we’re going to have a secondary chapter should we also list ourselves in the Google Doc under the secondary chapter? I don’t wanna add a duplicate line to mess up the count.
