ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL TOURNAMENT
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL on a very successful golf tournament! It doesn’t take a village to have a profitable MOAA golf tournament, but it does take the backing of an active chapter membership, a dedicated golf committee, supportive hole and major sponsors, a high number of players and numerous volunteers as a recipe for success. Through hard work, we were able to realize a net profit from the tournament of more than $26,000.
If you participated in any way, you should feel good about the benefits we will be able to deliver to JROTC/ROTC programs and disadvantaged veterans.
The first meeting of the Golf Committee was held in December 2018 to plan out the next five months. Members were Jim Albert, John Bradley, Randy Dymond, Frank Esposito, David Fischer, Jim Offutt, CJ Parente, Truman Parmele, Calvin Peck, Dave Sheppard, John Short, Bill Stewart, Jerry Terwilliger and me. In general, we formed three teams each responsible for the North Strand, Mid Strand and the South Strand. Solicitations were made for donations from golf courses and local business establishments. A flyer was developed to entice players to participate. A contract was signed with the Legends Group where we had to pay for a minimum of 120 players. 152 players entered.
We want to thank our volunteers. Most were from our membership, but some came from our corporate sponsors such as Stephanie Bohardt of Monarch Roofing, Helen Peters from CresCom Bank and members of the JROTC unit from Myrtle Beach High School. It was a very cooperative effort. Seven more months and we do it all over again. If you want to participate, please let Dave Townsend know!

Another Successful GSMOAA Golf Tournament
Our Chapter had another excellent and successful golf tournament during Military Appreciation Days, due in no small part to the determination and hard work of our many volunteers and sponsors. President Dave Townsend led the golf committee's effort but is the first to give credit to all the committee members who signed up sponsors and golfers and got the Heritage Club venue ready and organized for the day's activities. Thanks to all, members, sponsors and golfers alike !
