  • OC Chapter Reclaims Cactus Cup!

    Our Orange County Chapter proudly reclaimed the 2025 Cactus Cup against Palm Springs!  With 8 matches played, we battled through 2 All Square (tie) results, 2 losses, and 4 hard-fought wins to secure the trophy.  It was a beautiful and warm day at Goose Creek —a course that is always a challenge! But neither the heat nor the tricky layout could hold us back.

    This year’s incredible team consisted of Sandra Bensworth, Jan Cenedella, Angie Charky, Janet Cleary, Debbie Dakouzlian, Mary Guerrero, Shelley Klick, Eileen Licerio, Colleen Marinelli, Margaret Miller, Mireya Moreno, Sumiko Perry, Maryalice Prescott, Michelle Sullivan, Elaine Thayer, and Gaye Thomson.  A special thank you to Janet, Eileen and Mary for organizing this fantastic event for our chapter.

    Interested in playing next year?  We will be back in Palm Springs in 2026 to defend the Cup!  


  • New Chapter Board of Directors -- Congrats to Maryalice Prescott and Welcome Mary Guerrero!

    In our recently completed Chapter elections, Maryalice Prescott has been unanimously reelected to a second one-year term as President! 

    Also, please welcome Mary Guerrero as a new member of the board!  She will be heading our social media efforts.

    Mary is a distinguished US Air Force Veteran and a seasoned technology expert with over two decades of experience. She has served as the IT Director for Special Olympics Southern California and is currently working at Microsoft.

    Mary is a proud graduate of the PGA HOPE program, which ignited her passion for golf. Seeking camaraderie with fellow female golfers, she joined the LPGA Amateurs of Orange County. Mary is committed to supporting and advocating for both programs, sharing her positive experiences with fellow veterans and encouraging more women to take up the sport.

    In addition to Mary and Maryalice, Janet Cleary and Laura Vossman are beginning second terms to complete the Board of Directors.  Sandra Bensworth is continuing as Treasurer but is serving a required one-year timeout from the Board in order to run as President next year.
