2024 was another great year for our chapter and its members! Here are some of the highlights:

• 6 members got hole-in-ones! Carissa Amundson, Jenn Evenson, Barb Severson, Tracy Yandry, Sandy Bell, and Molly Koranda
• We held 2 new tournaments: the Eraser Tournament and the Chapter Championship
• Members were able to participate in 2 new leagues: a beginners league with Sue Shapcott, PhD and a competitive league at Yahara Hills
• We hosted 2 successful outings: a Women's Day scramble at TPC Wisconsin and our annual Charity Outing at the Legends of Bergamont supporting the Foundation for Black Women's Wellness
• Our chapter was well represented and successful at WSGA events, including the Patti Pelsichek Solheim Cup, Women's Match Play, and Women's Stableford events
• Chapter member Sarah DeKraay qualified to the USGA Senior Women's Open final in Seattle and was an alternate to the USGA Women's Mid-amateur finals

We look forward to continuing to expand our member benefits in 2025 and can't wait for another great year!
