Jim Wegman Publicity

Sadly, I must announce the recent passing of former Niner Bill Coleman. Bill was a kind man and a ready volunteer whenever there was work to be done. I had the pleasure of working with Bill on the Niners Rules Committee and the Ironoaks Golf Committee. We played golf together over the years and Bill was a true gentleman on and off the course. To his wife Pattie and members of his family, I offer my sincerest condolences on Bill’s passing.

We have two new Niners; Bill Pender recruited by Jim Wegman and Ed Anderson recruited by Dave Mork. Let’s welcome Bill and Ed to the league. Glad to have you on board guys.

I would like to extend a special thank you to Bob Hiller, a fairly new Niner who has volunteered to become a Game Manager and is currently being trained by the other GMs. This is a sort of basic training without the packs and the marches. We are always glad to welcome new members and appreciate volunteers who step up and take on league duties.

The Ironwood course rehabilitation work schedule is progressing well thanks to the IronOaks course Superintendant Charles Keys and Head Pro Eddy Renio. Board Member Doug Bishop is the liaison to the golf operations and staff; although Doug is not a golfer, he has been very involved in the various course projects. Current photos of the project and details can be found on the HOA Three website.
