Note from New Chapter President, Rachel Geissler

As we enter the Holiday Season, I wanted to say Thank You to each of you – without all of you, we wouldn’t have this wonderful and vibrant golf community. I’m grateful to be serving as your Chapter President once again and look forward to re-connecting with friends from the past and building new relationships with those of you I may not have met yet. Please provide honest feedback on ways we as a Chapter could better meet your needs. I would love for this to be a time of growth where we add new members and forge new friendships. Thank you in advance for raising your hand to help the board and Chapter forge ahead and continue to be the premier amateur golf association in Madison!
