The official start of the Captains 2012 golf season is only a few weeks away.  As you make your plans for the new year we urge you to join and become an active member of the Captains Course Men’s Golf Association (CCMGA).

The CCMGA exists to organize competitions and events throughout the year, to promote camaraderie and sportsmanship and to support the operation of Captains for the benefit of all members and guests.  CCMGA sponsors a full calendar of events during the year including the Wednesday Competition, the Captains Invitational, the 9 & Dine series, the Two Man Best Ball Tournament and more.  This year the CCMGA will sponsor new pin reflectors that will enhance the performance of range-finders.  The CCMGA is the proud sponsor of an annual scholarship awarded to an outstanding college bound student from the Nauset High School golf team.  The CCMGA supports Junior Golf Day at Captains and the Lower Cape Outreach Council tournament.  Last but not least the CCMGA sponsors the food and beverage program for the Captains Invitational Tournament.  In short, the CCMGA is active and involved.

CCMGA membership for 2012 is only $20.  The organization will be better if you are a member.  If you were a member of the CCMGA in the past we thank you for your support and look forward to your membership in 2012.  If you were not a member in the past we hope you will join and help us make the 2012 golf season the best it can be.
