Provided below is a message from the President concerning the Time Capsule

Dear Executive Committee and Members in the year 2050,

The Executive Committee of 2000 has compiled for you a collection of documents and mementos that best represents our Association as of today.

Each artifact was carefully chosen and put into the time capsule at a fun filled party at JoAnne Bagnell's home in Gladwyne. And we did have a great time, but we also realized that all of us most likely would not be there to witness the opening of the capsule. It is therefore our sincere hope that you treasure and honor our past as we envy you living in the future.

One of the highlights in the year 2000 was the creation of our web sight under the direction of our Executive Director, Charlotte Barnhard. This new information technology has helped us greatly to communicate with our vast membership and give our members up to date information and results of our tournaments. We are fully aware that the technology available to us must seem rather rudimentary to you. We can not imagine what it must be like in the year 2050.

We take great pride in being members of this Association founded in 1897. It is our sincere wish that you continue to promote interest and encourage friendly competition in women's amateur golf in the Philadelphia area and protect the tradition and spirit of the game of golf.

Sincerely,

Gail Anderson
President
