Default I received a citation for my behavior on the golf course today.

I guess I was doing something you just don't do here and the Ambassador issued me a citation.

All I did was rake a bunker.

Shoot, I've raked a million bunkers. My golf balls came with sand magnets built in. Where the %^&* is my reward??!!

He should have taken a photo of this rare event, but he was probably so stunned that he didn't think of it.

I rec'd one in March............."positive attitude and not being upset with the slow play ahead of me."

I tried to install a Rewards Program at home for my positive attitude and not being upset with slow dinner preparation, but nothing has gotten off the ground.

You should try giving the cook a citation. And maybe make the award good for a dinner out. (Just not at the Chinese restaurants at Colony and Pinellas.). [emoji41][emoji106]

A golf buddy of mine and I each got one of those citations for fixing too many divots on one of their greens. It was a hard day for us!!

And that gets you a 10% off coupon to use to buy overpriced items in pro shops and to be entered with thousands of others to win one free priority membership each year.

I have gotten several. The last one was at Escambia. First the ambassador watched me rake several other peoples footprints and then he scolded me for placing the rake incorrectly where the handle was over the edge.(would interfere with mowing. ) I asked him where my coupon was for raking all the footprints. He said he was out of them and would go and get me one, which he actually did.
