On Thursday, January 9 the MountainView Preserve Men’s Golf Association had its first member luncheon of 2015. Typical SaddleBrooke winter weather prevailed but over 100 members revved their engines and stood on their assigned tees for the 8:00 a.m. shotgun start. This year the membership was challenged with a par three tournament. Dick Helms, the Board’s Tournament Chairman, crafted 18 testy par three holes at the Preserve Course. Nothing was easy but a great time was had by all. Thanks, Dick.

This year there were four new members elected to the Board: Bob Maruniak (Vice President), Greg Cahill (Membership), Bob Edelblut (Publicity) and Otto Voorman (Secretary). They joined current Board members Dennis Marchand (President), Bob Eder (Special Events), Dick Helms (Tournament Chairman), Tom Fitzgerald (Rules Chairman), Mike Harris (Handicap Chairman), Scott Newberry (Treasurer) and Ron Victor (Sponsorship).
