COVID is now all around us in Nuevo Vallarta and spreading fast. We want to continue enjoying Skins games, but safely and without putting ourselves and others at risk.

Below are the rules for the coming weeks and months for our Skins game league, which we hope will keep the Skins game from being the source of a COVID outbreak. Players discussed and accepted these rules after the January 10th game.

Everyone in the Skins league should adopt and comply with these rules for himself and for all other players. There will be no enforcement police, but as friends, we should help each other to play golf safely. So by signing up for and playing in a Skins game, you are implicitly telling your friends that you are complying with these rules.

1- I don’t play in Skins games if I am not fully vaccinated.

2-I don’t play in Skins games if I have COVID symptoms, whether COVID-tested positive or not.

3- If I have COVID, I don’t play in Skins games until I reach at least 5 consecutive days without symptoms or get a negative test.

4- If I have been in close contact with a person having COVID in the last 5 days, I don’t play in Skins games.

5- I will not play Skins within the first 5 days after arrival in Puerto Vallarta by plane or other public transportation. This rule is for regular as well as for temporary players.

The calendar now shows all skins game events for the upcoming season, so you can sign up now. We will again be starting at 11 AM every Monday and Friday.

Please take time to sign up now, especially for November and December, so I can work with Steve to refine the number of tee times he has reserved for us. Thanks, and see you soon.

I hope everyone had a good summer and stayed safe. Due to COVID-19, I suspect many of you will alter your normal winter plans, so the number of tee times we need for the skins game each week could be considerably different from past years. Therefore I ask that you take a moment to let me know your plans, so that I can ask Steve to block tee times for us.

I know things could change, but to the best of your knowledge, when do you plan to be in PV and playing in the skins game this year? Your answer can be as specific as arrival and departure dates or as general as “Late December through mid-March.”

You can reply to this post if you want others to see your plans, or you can email me at duane.bender@gmail.com. Thanks.

With the cancelation of the tournament, Friday 3/20 will be a normal Friday for our leagues, so we will now have a skins game that day.

The 3/20 skins game is on the schedule for signups now.
