It is the member’s responsibility to sign up, not the Pro Shop. Reminder, no-shows will not be allowed to participate in the following tournament. Members must participate in two EMGA events in order to qualify for the Kregel Championship. Match Play The 2014 EMGA Match Play Tournament is underway.

Many of you had your kids; grandkids as well as other relatives attend. As in the past we’ve had EMGA volunteer participation and again this year we are soliciting some help from our members. This year the camps are 2 - 6 June and 23 – 27 June. We need three folks from 0830 - 1230 for the 2 – 6 June week and three from 0730 - 1130 for the 23 to 27 June week. You can volunteer for just one day or more if you can, The duties involve mainly logistics support in getting the kids around to the putting, chipping and driving venues as well as sign ins on the first day. There is no previous experience necessary; just be there to provide support to the staff and the kids. Phil Trujillo of the EGC who heads up the Junior Golf Program told me there are still openings for both sessions so it’s not too late to sign up a family member and make a family outing of it. I’ll be the interface to the EGC so please respond to me, Marty Bunker, Vice President EMGA, [email protected], 719 598-1893. This is a positive credential for our EMGA, but more importantly, by our example, we show to the future generations the lifelong enjoyment of the game of golf. 3 EMGA Update 13 May 2014 Version 1 OPC 15 May 2014 (Preliminary) Eisenhower Golf Club - Blue Course Low Net/Gross Scoring Flight 1 Flight 2 Name Net Gross Payouts Name Net Gross Payouts Lee, Scott 70 83 $21 Becker, Don 65 79 $21 O'Brien, Tom 72 82 $13 Rubick, Andy 65 83 $13 Graham, Jeff 73 83 $8 Tucker, John 66 83 $8 Steffers, Fred (Low Gross) 75 77 $14 Mau, Don (Low Gross) 67 82 $14 Reed, Rusty 76 87 Dehaven, Steve 70 84 Sova, John 77 82 Stecklein, Ronald 72 85 Colbert, Louis 77 90 King, William 74 89 Sanders, Phillip 78 89 Sumner, Clarence 74 89 Brown, Donald E 79 95 Gillespie, J T 75 88 Hale, Skip 80 92 Craig, Mark 77 93 Stolzmann, Joel W 81 90 Baltuskonis, Thomas 77 90 Arkfeld, Gerald NC NC Fulkerson, Don 81 98 Sims, Marc L NC NC Van Wieren, Jack 92 109 Perry, Bob NC NC De Jonckheere, Tom NC NC Flight 3 Flight 4 Name Net Gross Payouts Name Net Gross Payouts Bennett, Tom 68 90 $21 Jelosek, James V 61 98 $23 Ah Yo, Phillie 70 94 $13 Schafer, Dick (Low Gross) 64 90 $14 Matsuyama, Garey 71 92 $8 Nici, Rosario 68 98 $14 Sosalla, Phillip (Low Gross) 71 89 $14 Grant, Julius 70 103 $9 Uhl, Donald P 72 90 Jergensen, Harley G 72 101 Roberts, Rick 74 96 Carbaugh, Don 73 97 Ward, Charles R 77 97 Mutu, Robert 75 103 Estrem, Kevin 78 97 Laurie, Bob 75 104 Neff, Jerry 80 101 Habbinga, Richard H 76 101 Towery, Bob 84 107 Fernandez, Victor 76 106 Baker, Russ 85 105 Pulvermacher, Gary 79 106 Bunker, Marty 86 107 Doukas, Jim 82 107 Livie, Brian 87 110 Dyck, Alvin B 83 117 Andreski, Philip NC NC Simonson, Gerald 85 125 Schneider, Stan NC NC 4 EMGA Update 13 May 2014 Version 1 OPC Blue Course, 15 May 2014 (Preliminary) Eisenhower Golf Club - Blue Course Net Skins Hole Net Winner Payout 1 2 Tie 2 2 Tie 3 1 Kevin Estrem $57 4 3 Tie 5 3 Tie 6 2 Tie 7 1 Tie 8 2 Tie 9 3 Tie 10 3 Tie 11 3 Tie 12 3 Tie 13 1 Tie 14 2 Tie 15 2 Tie 16 3 Tie 17 1 Tie 18 2 Tie 5 EMGA Update 13 May 2014 Version 1 2014 Eisenhower Golf Course Tournament & Special Event Calendar Stars and Stripes May 18th Family Golf Day May 25th USAFA Graduation May 28th EGC Demo Day June 7th EGC Junior Golf Camp #1 June 2-7 The Austin Young Band June 12th Father and Son Tournament June 15 USAFA Junior Golf Camp June 16-20 EGC Junior Golf Camp #2 June 23-28 Superintendent’s Cup June 28-29 Course Championship July 12-13 Rico Southee Band July 17th Member/Guest July 25-27 Senior Club Championship August 9-10 Member/Member August 23-24 Falcon Invitational September 4-7 Fall Classic September 19 Eisenhower Challenge October 11th Turkey Shoot Out November 15th 6 EMGA Update 13 May 2014 Version 1 EMGA Event Schedule Date Time Start Event Course Thu, May 22 0800 S Ind Modified Stableford* EGC Thu, May 29 0630 T OP/OPC EGC Mon, Jun 02 0800 S CC of Colo EGC Tue, Jun 03 0730 S CC of Colorado H&A Away Thu, Jun 05 0800 S Low Gross/ Low Net* EGC Tue, Jun 10 0800 S Perry Park H&A Away Thu, Jun 12 0630 T OP/OPC EGC Tue, Jun 17 0900 S Perry Park H&A EGC Thu, Jun 19 0800 S Individual Low Net* EGC Wed, Jun 25 0830 S Flying Horse H&A Away Thu, Jun 26 0630 T OP/OPC EGC Thu, Jun 26 0830 S Flying Horse H&A EGC Tue, Jul 01 0830 S Col Spgs CC H&A EGC Thu, Jul 03 0630 T OP/OPC EGC Thu, Jul 03 0830 S Col Spgs CC H&A Away Thu, Jul 10 0630 T OP/OPC EGC Wed, Jul 16 0830 S Club at Pradera H&A Away Thu, Jul 17 0800 S Member/Member* EGC Fri, Jul 18 0830 S Club at Pradera H&A EGC Thu, Jul 24 No Play EGC Member Guest EGC Tue, Jul 29 0830 S Kissing Camels H&A Away Thu, Jul 31 0800 S Vic Kregel EMGA EGC Thu, Jul 31 Championship Round #1* Tue, Aug 05 0830 S Kissing Camels H&A EGC Thu, Aug 07 0800 S Vic Kregel EMGA EGC Thu, Aug 07 Championship Round #2* Thu, Aug 07 1300 Awards Luncheon ER Wed, Aug 27 0830 S Castle Pines H&A EGC Wed, Sep 03 0830 S Castle Pines H&A Away Thu, Aug 14 0700 T OP/OPC EGC Thu, Aug 21 0700 T OP/OPC EGC TBD S Triple Crown H&A EGC Thu, Aug 28 0800 S Two Man Scramble EGC Thu, Sep 04 0730 T OP/OPC EGC Tue, Sep 09 0830 S Pueblo CC EGC Wed, Sep 17 0900 S Pueblo CC Away Thu, Sep 11 0800 S 4 Man Var Best Ball EGC Thu, Sep 11 1300 2014 Officer Election ER Thu, Sep 11 1300 with EMGA-host Lunch Thu, Sep 18 0800 T OP/OPC EGC 7 EMGA Update 13 May 2014 Version 1 Thu, Sep 25 0830 S Fall ABCD Scramble EGC Thu, Oct 02 0830 S EMGA Appreciation Day EGC Thu, Oct 02 1330 with Lunch, EGC host ER Thu, Oct 09 0900 S Employee Appreciation EGC Thu, Oct 09 1400 with lunch, EGC host ER Thu, Oct 16 0800 T OP EGC Thu, Oct 23 0800 T OP EGC Thu, Oct 30 0830 T OP EGC Notes: * posted as a "T" (Tournament) score ER=Eisenhower Room.
