Greetings Fellow Golfers,
A big hearty welcome to our newest members of Goldsboro Municipal Golf Course, Bill Anderson, Matthew Scott‐Tolchard, Dustin
Metts and Michael Willard. Great to have you guys and your families with us. A great way for our new members to get acquainted
with the rest of us golfing fanatics is to come play in a Shootin’ da Bull Tournament. Our first one for the year will be held May 17th
(Saturday) at 5:30. Me thinks we will do a ‘Reverse Par 3’ on the back 9 this time. Everyone seemed to really enjoy the last one. Back 9
is played in reverse rotation. ex: #10 tee to #18 green, #18 tee to #17 green, #17 tee to # 16 green and so on and so forth until 9 holes are
played. Cost will still be the same, $15.00 for members and $24.00 for non‐members. Carts, green fees, drinks, prizes and food by
Carolyn is included. Sign‐up early. Sheet will be outside CJ’s Grill on bulletin board. If you haven’t noticed by now, WE HAVE A
BABY!!! This is our third consecutive year of this great bird deciding to nest and raise their young in our tree off #14. Some fun facts
about our National Bird: Bald Eagles are birds of prey meaning they hunt for food. They are carnivores meaning they eat meat. Their
main source of food is fish however Eagles will also eat carrion (dead or decaying animal flesh), smaller birds, rodents, squirrels and
rabbits. Females are slightly bigger than males. Females can be up to 3 feet and males 2.8 feet. Their wingspan can be 7 feet wide.
Bald Eagles can fly up in the sky up to 10,000 feet from the ground. They can fly up to 40 miles per hour! A Bald Eagle isn’t bald at
all. They are called bald because of their white heads. Bald Eagles are dark brown with yellow beaks, large talons (hooked claws)
with white heads a tails. Bald Eagle has 7,000 feathers. When they lose one feather from one wing they lose one from the other wing
too. During mating season September‐April, male and female Bald Eagles will work together to build large nests with sticks. Their
nests can be 8 feet wide. During courtship Bald Eagles perform cartwheels in the sky. They hook their talons (claws) and spin down
from the sky towards the ground. They let go of each other before hitting the ground and then soar back up into the sky. When a
Bald Eagle finds a mate they stay together until one dies then they find a new mate. Bald Eagle eggs hatch after 35 days. A Baby Bald
Eagle is called an eaglet. They are light brown and fluffy when they are born. They do not get white heads and tails until they are 4 ‐
5 years old. A Bald Eagle can live 20‐30 in the wild and over 30 years in captivity. On another note, a lot of work is being done on the
course. Too much to mention in this Newsletter. Go to our Facebook page, ‘Goldsboro Municipal Golf Course’ and check out all the
happenings and pictures. And please, when you see a maintenance worker on the course, tell them thank‐you.
