Members,
Here’s the results from today’s OPC on the Silver course. We had 53 golfers that played, 32 in the White Division and 21 in the Gold Division. We had 42 players in the optional gross skins. The total purse was $307.00.
Signups for the 24 October OPC on the Blue course start tonight at 7:00PM. We might have a twist on how we score that OPC, so more to come!

Members,
Only two more OPCs to go for the season.
Sign Ups start on Tuesday, 15 October exactly at 1900 (7PM).
OPCs cost $5 to compete. If you wish to compete for gross skins against the entire field, it will cost you an additional $1.
Instructions:
1. Tee Time reservations will open on Tuesday night at 7PM (1900), 9-days prior to the OPC.
2. Sign in to the EMGA Portal page with your username and password: https://egc-
2024emga.golfgenius.com. The tee sheet will open up exactly at 7:00 PM. If you enter the site sooner, you may need to refresh your browser before seeing the tee sheet. 3. On the portal page, go to the Tee Sheet section, and then select “Open Tee Time Registration.”
4. Select the time you want to play.
5. You’ll be able to sign up as a single, twosome, threesome or foursome.
6. If signing up for more than just yourself, you’ll need to know the names of the other players in advance of making the tee time. Once a name is added, no other player can select that same person (his name will be grayed out). When finished signing up, please hit “Done” to save your tee time. You’ll receive a confirmation email (it’s not immediate, but it does come).
7. After hitting the “Done” button, if you did not sign up for all four slots, the remaining slots will be open for others.
8. If you are the initiator of the tee time and have added other players, those players are now “coupled” to you and tied to your reservation. For a player to “decouple” themselves from the initiator, they need to first Cancel their name from the reservation before selecting any other tee time. Do not just try to move yourself, you’ll still be coupled to the initiator.
9. When signups have not yet been closed, members can return to the Open Tee Time Registration page to cancel their registration.
10. Signups close at 6PM on Tuesday night prior to the OPC. After that time, if you need to make any changes, please text either Ron Black (303) 918-8702, John Henninger (719) 237-1700, or Larry Walker (719) 661-2496.

Here’s the obituary that was posted in the Gazette for Don Mau.Larry Walker, President EMGADonald Lee Mau
April 23, 1939
September 28, 2024Donald Lee Mau was born April 23, 1939, to Martha Skattum and Raymond Milbrandt Mau in Janesville, Wisconsin. He passed quietly at home in Colorado Springs on September 28, 2024, surrounded by family, after a brief battle with cancer.
Don looked back fondly on his “Happy Days” childhood in Wisconsin; he went from Roosevelt grade school through Janesville HS with a group of almost 60 classmates who graduated together in 1957. In 1958, Don qualified for Aviation Cadet Training at Harlingen AFB in Texas and graduated as a Second Lieutenant/Navigator in the United States Air Force. He completed Radar Intercept Officer school in 1960 in Waco, TX, where he met a young Baylor co-ed named Judy Brown on a blind date after choosing her picture out of a yearbook. For him it was love at first sight, and five years later she agreed to be his wife and partner, a union that lasted for the rest of his life.
In 1963, when the F-4 Phantom Fighter was introduced to the USAF arsenal, Don became one of the first instructors in the systems training program for back-seat pilots. He spent six years at Davis Monthan AFB in Tucson, where his two children, Wesley and Melissa, were born. In 1970 Major Mau joined the 43rd Tactical Fighter Squadron at Elmendorf AFB, AK, followed by a combat tour in Thailand and an assignment with the AF Flight Test Office at McDonnell Aircraft in St Louis, MO. After a four-year tour at Headquarters USAF Europe in Ramstein, Germany, Don retired as a Lieutenant Colonel from the Air Force in 1980.
After retirement, Don earned his law degree from the University of Texas School of Law. Don parlayed his tactical and organizational expertise into a second career in philanthropy and fundraising: he created innovative and successful giving campaigns during executive stints at the University of Texas Law School Foundation in Austin, TX, Care & Share in Colorado Springs, CO, and finally the North Lincoln Hospital Foundation in Lincoln City, OR.
Following the birth of their first grandchild in Colorado Springs in 1998, Don and Judy returned to Colorado to enjoy their growing family and full-time retirement.Whether it was golf, photography, skiing, or anything involving high tech, Don went all in. As an active member and Tournament Director of the Eisenhower Men’s Golf Association, he was given the first ever EMGA Distinguished Service Award for organizing weekly tournaments and prize payouts. He logged eight holes-in-one throughout his golf career and relished passing on the golf bug to his future son-in-law and grandsons, spending many happy days with them on the course.
Don is survived by his wife Judy, the best thing that ever happened to him, and their children Wesley (Shannon Fitzgerald) and grandchildren Lily, Josie, and Woody Mau of Dripping Springs, TX; and Melissa (Luke Travins) and grandsons Luke Owen and Tucker Travins of Colorado Springs, CO. His younger brother Richard Mau resides in Youngstown, OH.
Donald Lee Mau lived a life defined by service, love, and dedication, leaving behind a legacy that will be cherished by all who knew him. Memorial donations may be made to Care & Share of Colorado Springs or the Janesville High School Class of ’57 Scholarship in Janesville, Wisconsin.

Members,
Here’s the results from today’s OPC on the Blue course. We had 69 golfers, 40 in the White Division and 29 in the Gold Division. We had 52 players that participated in the optional gross skins game. The total purse for today was $397.00.
Today was the first OPC with the new divisions and allowing members to play different tees within their divisions if they wanted. We will be asking for feedback at the end of the month to see if we want to keep the new structure or the old. Thanks.
Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks to the 70 golfers who came out in great weather to play our final tournament of the year, the combined Devil Ball Individual and Devil Ball Scramble tournament.After the round, the club hosted an outstanding lunch, provided a keg, and raffled several prizes.
We did have two no-shows. If you can’t make a tournament after registering in the future, please do let us know. It really helps us in the morning when we’re getting everything ready to go.
Results are attached. There are separate files for the Individual and Scramble tournaments along with a total payout summary. CTTP results are included with the Scramble results.
Thanks,
Your Tournament Committee
