On Saturday 11/8/2025 members enjoyed a social at 9Yards Golf Lounge in Washington, PA. Members were able to "play" Pebble Beach, participate in the closest to the pin and enjoy food and beverages as well. Volunteers, Captains and Board members were recognized for their contributions on behalf of the Chapter. There were some great basket drawings, 50/50 and a pair of Penguins tickets too.
Congrats to Becki Matscherz who won closest to the pin and Anastasiya who won the pair of Penguin tickets!
A special thanks to Sean Cavanagh of Action Construction, LLC and Eagle Sponsor, Lexi Dugan of Berkshire Hathaway Home Services for their support.

Thanks to everyone who participated in our recent election.
Nearly 40 golfers participated in a Chapter favorite - the Solheim Cup format event - which was held at the quirky and challenging Grand View Golf Club in Braddock, PA on Saturday, October 4th. Stunning views of the surrounding area overlooking Kennywood Park, the Monongahela River and US Steel facilities offset frustrations with blind shots, disappearing balls and elevation changes. Local course knowledge was very valuable here (thanks Cheryl H.)!!
Members and guests enjoyed scoring 6 holes of best ball, 6 holes of alternate shot (AKA "sorry, partner"), and 6 holes of scramble. Prizes were awarded for 1st through 4th place, with Cristy McCloskey and Becki Matscherz taking the top prize with a score of 75! A delicious buffet lunch and drinks followed the on-course action.
In our spirit of community impact and giving, we also collected over 20 bags of clothing and accessories for Dress For Success. We will be meeting with the local representatives to complete our donation soon.
