Lake Tanglewood Organizations
Lake Tanglewood Golf Association was formed in 1977 to promote golf and fellowship among the residents of Lake Tanglewood and to insure proper maintenance of the golf course. To get the course up to par a group of "hardy pioneers" took it upon themselves to meet the maintenance needs. Members adopted greens and spent countless hours mowing, watering and caring for them. Many fund raising projects helped finance needs for the course. In 1982 a project of publishing a Lake Tanglewood phone book was started and the sale of the books goes to the LT Golf Association treasury. Through all the years it has taken teamwork and dedication from lots of good people to accomplish so much for our course. In 1991 golf cart trails were completed - - again with the cooperation of lots of people and the generosity of citizens at the lake. The course is now maintained by the Lake Tanglewood, Inc. maintenance crew. The golf association sponsors many tournaments, holds quarterly supper meetings, and the ladies have a luncheon once a month. Improvements are constantly being made to the course. There is no playing fee for Lake Tanglewood members. A small fee is required for guest of members. The membership dues for the golf association is $10.00 per person per year.
Arts & Crafts was started in 1970. Tea invitations were sent to the Lake Tanglewood women and the first official meeting was on January 18, 1971. The dues are $10.00 per year. In 1976 a series of money-making projects was launched. The various fund raisers have included, cookbooks, quilt making, and bazaars. The money raised goes to various community projects including the volunteer fire department, improvements to the clubroom, donations to the Golf Association, and beautification projects for the park and main gate. The club is not only interested in learning crafts but in sharing and helping the community. Benevolences include: making splints for the ambulance, toys given to the Church for needy children, hand puppets for local hospitals, lap robes and aprons for nursing homes and money donations made to numerous organizations. The club meets every Monday from 10:00 a. m. to 11:30 a.m. at the Clubhouse. Purpose of the Club:
The Lake Tanglewood Lions Club was organized in 1984 and on April 19, 1984, a charter was issued by Lions International. The Club was founded to help those individuals that are less fortunate than we are. The Club has furnished leadership and money to the Panhandle Eye Bank, provided funds to send young people to the Lions Camp in Kerrville, sponsored girls from Girls Town USA to shop for shoes and coats, assists in the eye glass program in our local schools, and sponsors a Boy Scout Troup at the Lake. The Club has painted the marina and helped build the restrooms and other projects for the Park at the Lake. The Club has three fund raising events each year
The Association was formed at an open meeting at the Clubhouse on October 9, 1986. The purpose of the Association was to improve the fishing in our lake. We have an on-going program with the Department of Fisheries Management at Texas Tech University to assist the Association with balancing the fish population in the lake.
