1967 Charter Members

We don't know too much about the details surrounding how the small group of thirty-one (31) Wyoming ladies started the WSWGA
back in 1967. From our historical records, however, we do have some notes and a newspaper clipping showing their photo (see
below) where twenty-two (22) of them played in their very first annual tournament on July 25th, 26th
and 27th, 1967 in Douglas, Wyoming.
If anyone has any updated information on any of these ladies, please let us know. We would love to hear from any of them who
are still with us.
