RB Men's Executive Golf Club's Summer Scramble Tournament held August 2nd


Walter Greenbaum, a proud native of the Bronx and former comptroller of numerous corporations, serves on the Thursday Club's Board of Directors as Tournament Chairman. He did an outstanding job in carrying out his duties for this tournament, in which more than $400 in prize money was awarded. This photo of Walt was taken a few seconds before he teed off at 7:30 AM at Hole 1, North Course. He hit a great drive, and continued to hit good shots most of the round.

Mike Szoka, a Master Chef at work!


We can thank Assistant Golf Pro Mike Szoka for exercising his culinary skills at this event. One wonders if he learned this art in his native Chicago? (click on photo to enlarge)
