    Met Open Championship Presented by Callaway 103rdAugust 21 - 23, 2018 Wykagyl Country Club History of the Met Open Championship Presented by Callaway From its inception in 1905 through the 1940 renewal, the Met Open was considered one of the most prestigious events in golf, won by the likes of Gene Sarazen, Walter Hagen, Johnny Farrell, Tommy Armour, Paul Runyan, Byron Nelson, and Craig Wood, in addition to the brothers Alex and Macdonald Smith (who together captured seven Met Opens, with Alex winning a record four times). The second edition of the championship was hosted and sponsored by Hollywood Golf Club, when George Low won in 1906. After an eight-year hiatus overlapping World War II, the Met Open became more of a regional championship, won by many of the top local club professionals, among them Claude Harmon, Jimmy Wright, Jim Albus, David Glenz, Bobby Heins and Darrell Kestner, not to mention such storied amateurs as Chet Sanok, Jerry Courville Sr., George Zahringer III, Jim McGovern, Johnson Wagner, and Andrew Svoboda. The purse was raised to a record $150,000 in 2007, giving the championship added importance. In 2015 the MGA celebrated a major milestone in marking the championship’s 100th playing, won by Ben Polland at Winged Foot Golf Club. In 2017, The MGA welcomed a new Championship Partner, Callaway Golf. Callaway Golf is the presenting sponsor of the Met Open Championship. Eligibility The competition is open to golfers who are: 1. Past MGA Open Champions. 2. PGA Members in good standing in the Metropolitan and New Jersey PGA Sections.

The team’s management contacted APE Wraps in San Diego for the second year in a row to create the graphics, print and install the wraps for its five support vehicles and trailer. The fleet provides support to the 29-member team at races around the country. The vehicles needed to be ready for the first race in North America. The 2011 Amgen Tour of California, an 800 mile, eight day Tour de France-style cycling road race, covered much of California from May 15 - 22. “We were thrilled to work with a brand like Team RadioShack again and inspired to work on the vehicles that would support the team’s professional cyclists, including stars like Levi Leipheimer, Chris Horner and Ben King,” said Troy Downey, president of APE Wraps. “We adapted the team’s branding and graphics, from the designs used for the European tour, to fit their U.S. fleet.” Inspired Brands. Intelligent World.TM www.averygraphics.com casestudy > APE Wraps’ designers utilized the assets provided and created designs that would fit the team’s 45 foot coach bus, Nissan Titan truck, 26 foot trailer, two Nissan Rogues and Nissan Armada. The designs were quickly approved and more than 4,000 square feet of Avery Dennison vinyl was printed and laminated for the team’s vehicles.

    NEBRASKA LEDGER • 2020 Focused on theFuture As this issue of The Nebraska Ledger was being created, the spread of COVID-19 continued in the U.S. and started a time of unprecedented change at the University of Nebraska. In order to be proactive, classes were suspended March 16-20 and students were encouraged to return home as our faculty began preparing for online delivery of courses. While our accounting students left, they needed technology and internet service sufficient for online learning at home. When faculty and staff started working from home, seemingly overnight, it was necessary for communications – from department meetings to office hours – to be held via Zoom. As many of us quickly transitioned our courses in Canvas and utilized tools like VidGrid and YellowDig. We also struggled for internet bandwidth because our own children were taking remote courses. Through hard work and resilience, our faculty used their expertise and talents to start teaching remotely on March 30. As a department, we held daily Zoom meetings to connect with each other or commiserate and share best practices. Because they believe in the power of every person, they also connect with students through phone calls and remote office hours. We appreciate our students for stepping up to this challenge alongside us. These same qualities, strengths and effort are used by our SOA community in the stories inside this Nebraska Ledger.

    Our Ridgewood Heritage Horses & Golf The Golf Course everaux Emmett, was one of the most famous golf course architects at the time. His work includes Garden City CC, Riddell Bay in Bermuda, a number of classic courses in the Northeast, and the most notable, The Congressional Golf Club in Bethesda, MD. On its opening day in 1924, Congressional hosted President Calvin Coolidge, many diplomats, and an estimated 10,000 on-lookers. The estimate for building 18 playable holes was $1,000 a hole. But that total did not include the removal of the stone walls that covered the property like a spider web. Only those that crossed the fairways were slated for removal in the original estimate. The course's condition was a bit rough for the first few years, but as money became available, the stone walls were gradually removed using only crowbars, two horses and a stone boat. It was a job that took many years. Nine holes — those that now comprise the second nine — opened for play in 1921. The other nine holes were completed in 1922. The back nine was played as the first nine until 1924, then changed to the second nine because it was longer by 300 yards and much harder to walk. Members have watched many of golf's greatest stars play the Ridgewood, including Walter Hagen, Joe Kirkwood, Tommy Armour, Henry Ciuci, Johnny Farrell, Ken Green and Mark Calcaveccia. The legendary Gene Sarazen, who owned a home just 10 minutes away, spent many days each year at Ridgewood training for tournament play.
