• If he falls down, lend him a helping hand.• If he's hungry and needs food to eat
Always give him a hot treat• Help him stand up and have an abundance of faith

Let him know that you care.• When his troubles overwhelm him, and his burdens
are to heavy for him to bearLet him know they're not to heavy for you to share.

If, like many, you spend your winter months gazing out your frosty win-dow and pining for the fairways, chances are when spring comes, yourgame is going to need some work.
But there's some simple winter maintenance you can do to keep youredge.
We've asked some of our top SwingFix Instructors for their favoriteoffseason practice tips. This one comes from Brian Dobbie, 2012NJPGA Teacher of the Year and PGA Professional at Montclair Golf Clubin Montclair, N.J.
"My favorite indoor drill is to get a club in your hands everyday,” Dobbie said. “Work on your gripand posture looking in a mirror. Put the clubhead next to a doorjam and simulate impact, with your hands leading theclubhead and your weight moving into your left leg. This move is great for impact.
"The other thing is to watch golf on TV. Seeing good rhythm and balance of the pros and seeing short game shots like putting, chipping,and sand play goes a long way."

As with most sports, the love of golf does not develop overnight. As youengage in practice sessions on a regular basis, you steadily develop an appre-ciation of the commitment and diligence that it takes to perfect your game. Forthe most part, developing your skills in golf requires individual effort. Unlikesome games such as football, basketball or ice hockey, which clearly involveteam effort, golf has a different arrangement. Enthusiasm for the game islargely a matter of personal inclination. However, once you grasp an apprecia-tion for the game, you’ll steadily develop more commitment to excel. The gamealso provides plenty of opportunities to test your skills, by engaging in compe-titions, some of which may involve teams. Engaging Game not only is golf re-laxing, it is also very engaging. The game involves a great deal of walking allover the golf course and the application of sustained mental effort. Thismakes for an intriguing game and one that allows you to take a completebreak from stressful situations at work or elsewhere. The relaxation that golf
provides in an outdoor setting is enough to make one love golf sport more than any other. It is an excellentstress reliever and helps you to develop a clear perspective of things beyond the golf course.

What is Happeningin February
RULE OF THE MONTH33-2a/10 How to Mark Island Green
QQA putting green is situated on an island in alake. The water between the tee and thegreen is defined as a water hazard. The wateron each side is marked as a lateral water haz-ard. How should the water behind the islandbe marked?
AAThe Committee would be justified in markingthe water behind the island as a lateral waterhazard.
Alternatively, the Committee might considerdefining the entire lake as a water hazard, es-tablishing a Dropping Zone and adopting aLocal Rule giving a player whose ball lies inthe hazard the option of dropping a ball in theDropping Zone, under penalty of one stroke.(Revised)
What is Parent Leadership?
Meaningful Parent Leadership occurs when par-ents gain the knowledge and skills to function inmeaningful leadership roles and represent a “par-ent voice” to help shape the direction of their fami-lies, programs and communities. ParentLeadership is successfully achieved when parentsand professionals build effective partnerships andshare responsibility, expertise and leadership indecisions being made that affect families and com-munities. The parents involved in these collabora-tions are called Parent Leaders.
Throughout the country, parents and profes-sionals are working together in new ways. They areparticipating jointly in local, regional and nationalplanning processes, collaborating as grant review-ers and program evaluators, and serving on advi-sory boards and coalitions. Working together, thevoices of parents and professionals are shapingpolicy and practice to make a positive difference inthe lives of children and families.
