The Children and Family
Programming Committee
is up to its old tricks,
planning a spectacular
event for our youngest
members of the ACC…
“Wizard of Oz” night on
March 2 (see page 10.)
But don’t think that it
Paul Kroll, CCM
is all fun and games for
General Manager
our youngsters, as the
Committee fully realizes the importance of good
manners. They are also sponsoring a four week
(on Sundays, see page 5) Etiquette Course that will
culminate in a five-course meal here at the Club.
Children and Family Programming is just one of
our many Committees, who guide and govern our
Club. Since we have just welcomed our new Board
members and Committee liaisons, now is the perfect
time to choose your passion, join a committee and
get involved! Check out page 5, from athletics to
associates we want your input!
Of course we can’t let Spring pass without a fantastic
party for adults! We have had many successful
“Spring Flings” at the ACC, and this year we are
adding a new twist and a special Celebration as a nod
to our Centennial. On Friday April 20, the “Red Hot
Rhythm Review” dance band will energize us as we
recognize “100 Reasons to Celebrate the ACC!” Don’t
dare miss it!
Great members and great events always make for
great times here at the ACC. We must also make
sure that we recognize great staff members, too.
Willie byrdsong,
Byrdsong, our loyal Dishwasher, is retiring in
early April after more than 40 years of hard work
in our kitchen. You may not recognize him, because
he is behind the scenes, but he has truly done an
exceptional service for this Club in his position
(see page 15). He will be recognized with a special
2 | ACCent Magazine
luncheon by our staff, and we invite you to stop in to
say “Congratulations” to Willie.
As we turn the corner to Spring, we look forward to
growing our relationship with the Columbus Country
Club. May 1 marks the beginning of our second year
of the joint venture. With warmer weather and golf
season approaching, prospective members will be
offered a “One Membership” option to fully utilize
both Clubs. Our own ACC members, who have been
with us prior to the venture, are still welcome to
“enhance” for increased CCC use at no initiation,
simply paying the increased dues and minimum
amounts. If the thought of drinks by the pool or golf
on a sunny day interests you, contact our Membership
Department for guidance on how to “enhance” your
membership!
Lisa Antolino was

the Board of Directors at

President’s Message
Let's Celebrate!
In 1912, a passionate group of men founded The
Athletic Club of Columbus and started our many
traditions for sports and fitness, business affiliations
and comradery that have endured a century. One
hundred years later the ACC has many reasons to
celebrate -- or at least 100! On April 20, I hope you
will join with your Board of Directors and me for
our first official celebration of the Centennial when
we open the club doors for our spring party -- "100
Reasons to Celebrate."
At the party, we will unveil the National Historic
Register plaque that will soon be affixed to our
Clubhouse. To me this plaque honors the efforts of
members over the years who have evolved our club,
a significant achievement given many comparable
organizations have disappeared. A key to this success
is strong club leadership, so fittingly we invite all past
presidents to come as our special guests. I hope all of
you will join us for cocktails, heavy hors d’oeuvres, a
live band -- and what will be the party of a century!
Serving as president in this momentous year is an
honor. For that matter, serving as president in any
year is a privilege that about 100 individuals have
shared. My good fortune has been to serve on the
board with past presidents Mark Collins, David Royer,
Doug Kennedy, Jim Sipp, Mike Paul, Roger Sugarman,
Jim Hendricks and Steve Van Heyde, each of whose
leadership contributed greatly to the sustainability of
this club today and to me personally.
In addition to these presidents, countless others
have served on our board, volunteer committees and
maintained a level of involvement critical to having
a club "built to last." I encourage you all to be active
with the ACC in ways that make sense for you. There is
much to gain as a result.
If you are so inclined, there are committees and
“Clubs within the Club” to consider (see page 5.)
Soon our new website will list members of this year’s
committees. Feel free to talk with those members or
our staff about these groups.
It's no secret that I'm the
first woman to serve as
president, which in large
part is due to staying
involved. My first volunteer
experience was on the
Women's Committee.
While the group started as
a way to support and grow
women membership, the
group evolved to broaden
its role of connectedness
-- both within the club and
Lisa A. Antolino
outside. This committee
President
has reached out to
organizations such as Race
for the Cure, Homeless
Families Foundation, and Dress for Success. Their
work enhances the club and our reputation in this
community.
Staying involved and active with the club is being part
of something great. While none of us will likely be here
in 2112, I hope our efforts will assure another great
ACC party in the spring of that year.
Centennial Corner
A glimpse into our past 100 years.
In 1963…
ACC Member and the youngest winner in golf at that
time, Jack Nicklaus, at age 23, was headed to Las Vegas
to compete in the Tournament of Champions. Winnings
for the event were $55,000.
Tom Bogen won the Squash League Crown, narrowly
defeating Dan Carmichael.
Thomas J. Quinn, originally from County Sligo, Ireland,
was hired as the Club’s “Bowling and Pocket Billiards”
Manager.
ACC Chef Gus Husse was honored at a luncheon before
leaving for the Pan-American Games in Sao Paulo, Brazil,
where he was Bicycling Coach for the U.S. Team.

Willie Byrdsong Retires After More Than 40 Years of Service
He’s “Back-of-the-House” at the ACC, so there is a good
chance that you may not know him personally, but our loyal
Dishwasher, Willie Byrdsong is retiring in April.
He came to the Club at just 17 years of age, when his cousin
was a cook at the Club. He left in 1967, and he then rejoined
our staff on April 1, 1972. He has always been a Dishwasher,
and he has worked many different shifts, with his most
recent being 9 to 5. He has an easygoing, quiet nature that
makes him a favorite of his colleagues, and even when the
ACC kitchen has boasted some temperamental chefs, he
says that they always left him alone because he just “comes
to work and does my best job.”
He recalls the days when there were six Dishwashers at the
Club, and it was “really jumping” with him still cleaning the
dishes at 3 and 4 A.M. He describes himself as a “country
boy,” and he looks forward to relaxing in his home on East
High Street in his retirement. He may spend some of his
retirement hours working on model cars and planes, a
hobby that he has enjoyed over the years.
His wife, Constance, has passed away, and he has a son,
Michael Mills who lives in the area.
Willie will be greatly missed by Staff and his loyalty to the
Club is unparalleled. His parting words to the ACC:
“I love the Club…the atmosphere and the people. Thank you
for letting me be here all these years.”
Willie Byrdsong retires from the ACC after more than 40 years.
