100 Years
FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER

Russ Shepherd & Ben Hogan
Our Club WebSite has been revamped and
it looks great. Please check it out at www.
stocktongolfcc.com . If you see an error or have
any suggestions please let us know in the office.
Also, check out the FaceBook page if you haven’t
already. Go to StocktonGCC and “like” us!
We have also met with SJAFCA staff in regards
to the Smith Canal Gate project. This “gate
structure” will reduce flood risk from a FEMA
high-risk flood zone area. We have been told
the Smith Canal levees do not meet the Federal
Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA)
minimum level of flood protection. Therefore,
beginning in November, of this year, the Club
will begin paying an annual assessment, for
thirty years to help pay for this project. Also,
an issue is where the gate will be constructed in
relation to where our irrigation pump is located
on the #8 tee box. We will keep you updated on
this situation.
The major Centennial events are being planned
and coordinated by the events committee and
staff. We thank our current Centennial sponsors,
local businesses and members, who have
decided to support the Centennial year! The list
of Sponsors is in this bulletin! A huge “Thank
You” to our member, Pete Ottesen who is writing
the manuscript for the Centennial Book. He has
interviewed many many people in regards to the
history of the Club! Make sure you reserve your
centennial book! Pre sales will happen shortly
and books will be available next January or
February. Also, we are still asking for old photos
uss Shepherd stands out among
the Stockton Golf & County Club’s
legendary members who, for more
than 30 years, held the course record of 63.
Imagine a record that would stand for more
than three decades only to have it shattered
not once, but twice within a matter of days
by brothers Andy and Ricky Barnes, who
competed collegiately at the time at Arizona
State.
Andy initially broke Shepherd’s record by
and stories that might be able to be in the book.
Photos of Club events, swim teams, golfers,
Invitationals and such are important. Photos will
be scanned and given back to the owners.
It’s the summer months and we have increased
our parking lot security. As a precaution, please
do not keep any valuables visible in your cars and
always lock the car. If you see any suspicious cars
or characters in the parking lot or clubhouse,
please contact the office staff or management.
There is a few days left on the Membership
drive so please remind your friends or associates
the program will conclude on July 13th. They will
then have one month to determine if they want
to buy into the Club and share in the monthly
incentives. I will be more than pleased to help
you with this process.
Stay cool, keep
hydrated and
enjoy the Club!

firing a 62 and then, less than two weeks
later, Ricky shot an incredible 61, to set a
course standard that still stands. Byron Meth
and Stan Matthews would later tie the record
with 61s. Rod Souza was part of a five some
that witnessed Ricky’s record-breaking round
that included two eagles, on Holes 14 and
16. “That’s what sticks in my mind about his
fabulous round when he carded eagles on two
holes on the back nine,” Souza said. “I’ll never
forget it.” Peter Ottesen

he year is half over and that’s hard to
believe! It has been a very busy year
with many things going on at your Club!
I hope you have been participating in these
events. It is exciting!
We are just finishing up our New Member
Initiative Recruitment Program as of July 13th.
To date, we have had twenty (20) new members
join under this program. Over half of these
new members fall into the Junior Executive
category which is 37 years of age or lower. This
is fantastic! All clubs and associations need
younger members and this shows the Club is a
destination for the younger families!
The drought situation is a little scary. Our
superintendent and President, Mr. Anthony
and I have met with Stockton East Water
District twice in trying to contract purchasing
surface water from them if a percentage of
our riparian diversion rights are curtailed. It is
rumored that Governor Brown will be making
an announcement shortly on curtailing a large
percentage of the riparian right allotment. Board
of Director, Kevin Kauffman has and is helping
this situation immensely. Stay tuned !
The Stockton GCC SHARKS have been on a
terror! As of this writing they have four wins
and No loses! 99 junior swimmers on the team
this year ! Thank you to all the volunteers, our
two coaches ( Kieffer and Nate), team mom
Mila DalPorto and the parents, grandparents !
League competition begins the middle of July.
GO SHARKS !

SENIORS’ CORNER
Message from Senior’s Department
Garry Potten, [email protected]
he Senior Men’s Home and Home schedule
is well under way. To date we have played
4 tournaments with our partner clubs, and
we have had very commendable turnouts at each
event. Give yourselves a pat on the back! If you
haven’t taken advantage of these Home and Home
events, don’t despair…we still have 7 more opportunities for you to come and join in the fun before
we wrap up the year with our November 7th Senior
Men’s championship. Please remember that you
must play in a minimum of 3 “Home” events and
3 “Away” events to qualify for the championship. If
you don’t qualify you can still play in the tournament and be eligible for the non-championship
prize pool…you just won’t be eligible for the
championship. If this is confusing to you, please
contact Jim Dyke for an interpretation.
Gentlemen, please mark your calendars for
July 11. This is the date of our 3rd annual Senior
Men’s Invitational. You should have all received a
registration card in the mail. All you have to do is
find yourself a senior partner, fill out the card and
return it to Rich in the pro-shop. We have some
exciting events planned, and we are working
diligently to assure you and your guest will have a
great experience. Don’t miss this fun time!
In other news, the seniors are working with the
SGCC course superintendent to preserve our leaning
tree on hole #14 by adding additional support to it.
I know many of us have often offered expletives at
that tree, but deep down you must admit it really
does make the hole much more interesting.
July and August provide ample opportunities for
you to satisfy your golf cravings. In July we have the
Senior Men’s Invitational (as previously mentioned),
a trip to Turlock, a trip to Brookside, and on July 24
the 18 Hole Ladies will be hosting the seniors at
our club. In August we have tournaments at Del Rio
and Spring Creek. Sign-up sheets are located by the
drinking fountain on the newly constructed counter,
which was built by none other than our own master
carpenter, Ray Drew. Thanks Ray!
The Central Valley Seniors have 2 Monday
tournaments in July, and 2 in August. On July 21
SGCC plays host to this group, and we are expecting
200 golfers from throughout northern California to
participate. Bob Morrison co-ordinates this event
for us, and if you would like to volunteer to assist
with this tournament, please give Bob a call.
The Super Seniors play at Tracy in July, and Del
Rio and Turlock in August. Please contact Bill Easley
if you are interested in playing in any of these
tourneys.
My most consistent and reliable shot is
my double at the 19th.

MEMBER PROFILE
Nancy Bojko
by Kelley Spooner
S
he got it from her parents! What did
she get from her parents? Nancy got
her flair for design from her parents,
and their parents. She comes from a long line
of designers; albeit a store front, floor display,
or the family furniture store. She was destined
to be a design/decorator. She opened her own
business in 1980; Designs by Nancy.
She worked for a private firm in Madera,
CA where she lived until making her way to
Stockton in 1979 with husband Max and son Jim,
who now lives in Linden and daughter Gina who
resides in Folsom. Max worked in the banking
business for several years; where he met Mike
Whelan who soon convinced him and Nancy to
join Stockton Golf & Country Club. They joined
SGCC in 2003 and have never looked back.
Nancy didn’t immediately take the plunge
into golf at the club, but it wasn’t long before
she was playing golf, joined the ladies nine
hole group, began to socialized and attend club
events. She has grown to love the club and is
passionate about the level of expertise the club
depicts making the club more inviting to attract
new members. She currently serves on the
House Committee and is a dedicated volunteer
for major club functions. In 2008, she was asked
to enhance the appearance of the club using her
decorating skills. One of her proudest decorating
moments was collaborating with Richard
Belcher on the historical photos that hang above
the stair case on the main floor of the clubhouse.
The tribute concerts on the range have been
favorites of Nancy’s in addition to twilight golf,
glow ball, and the membership’s annual trip to
Mexico.
The Bojko’s can be spotted having dinner;
often after a round of golf on Sunday afternoons.
Nancy embraces the comfortable and safe
feeling the club exudes, as well as meeting new
friends or just spending time with long time
friends in the Sunset lounge. Thank you Nancy
for all you do to keep the club looking awesome
throughout the year.

ur April 29th Neighborhood Party
(for lack of a better name) was a
huge success. Our neighboring clubs
were greeted by the registration attendees,
Candy Retamoza and Joleene Peirano; followed
by Mulligan sellers Marilyn Rauzi and Joyce
Belt. Our lunch and food service was selected
by Francesca Vera and Joyce Drew. The spring
theme decorations by Kathy Chinchiolo, Nancy
Sundahl and Judy Green were beautifully done.
And last but not least the gorgeously designed
and decorated baskets for the raffle were handled
by Arleta Dovichi. All of the volunteers worked
diligently and successfully to make it a great day.
Summer’s here and the games have started.
Joyce Belt put together teams to travel to Del Rio
on May 1 and on the May 27th she arranged for
the Tuesday Ladies Club to host the Division Teams.
Her players for our home field were Francesca Vera,
Candy Retamoza, Dale Muth, and Aggie Mohrmann,
Susan Marks and Marilyn Rauzi. The teams for the
Del Rio Match were Nancy Sundahl, Joyce Belt,
Aggie Mohrmann and Dale Muth, Susan Marks and
Marilyn Rauzi. The Merced Team, which is a long
way to travel early in the morning, Colleen Fetters
and Arleta Dovichi, Aggie Mohrmann and Dale
Muth, and Susan Marks and Chickie Gregerson. Our
most recent trip was to Discovery Bay and the ladies
volunteering for that excursion were Judy Green
and Aggie Mohrmann, Joleene Peirano and Marilyn
Rauzi, and Mary Ann Poletti and Chickie Gregerson.
I hope all of this is correct and that I haven’t left
anyone out. Joyce tells me she appreciates all of
the efforts each of the ladies has made. But it isn’t
over yet, we still have Sequoia Woods and Brookside
to play. We have had great team participation this
year and those who have not signed up have missed
some fun.
Our final 9 of the Tournament of Champions was
completed on June 24th. After 27 holes of golf the
SGCC Champion is Francesca Vera. The score board
looked like Francesca played a great game and all
of the Tuesday Ladies were happy to see her be the
new champion. Right behind Francesca was the
1st Flight winner, Judy Green and 2nd Flight was
snagged by Lynne Riggs. Congratulations ladies.
Ten of our club members participated in the tournament: they were Candy Retamoza, Tari Hockert,
Joyce Belt, Arleta Dovichi , Dale Muth, and Marilyn
Rauzi and, of course, myself.

FROM THE DIRECTOR OF GOLF
FULL SWING...
T
he golf operation is now in full swing.
We are enjoying our Centennial Year with
great participation in many of our events.
We had 86 players turn out for our annual Memorial Day Golf & BBQ Tournament and commanded
a full field in our Men’s & Ladies’ Invitationals. It is
great to see the energy and excitement at our club.
Speaking of energy, we just started our Jr. Jr. Golf
program. This annual program introduces 4-6 year
olds to the wonderful game of golf. Some say it’s
like herding cats or wrestling jello, but for us Professionals, we simply say “This is Awesome.” Our
Jr. Programs introduce etiquette, swing mechanics, chipping and putting, to these young enthusiasts. Our 7-17 year old programs start the second
week in July. There is still room in these programs.
Please contact the Golf Shop with any questions.
We have also been fortunate to host some of the
most prominent Jr. Tournaments in Northern California. On March 15th & 16th we hosted a 2-day
NCGA/NCPGA Jr. Tour Event followed by the JGANC
2014 MEN’S INVITATIONAL
T
his year’s Men’s Invitational was
sensational! This (1) Member (1) Guest
event was sold out with 128 players. The
event started with a practice round followed by
two tournament rounds. The field was divided
into six separate flights based on the total team
handicap. Throughout the 3 days, players enjoyed
good weather, immaculate course conditions,
great food and libations a “Big Valley Ford
Shootout” on the 18th hole sponsored by Big
Valley Ford, two Hole-In One “Mercedes Benz”
vehicles sponsored by Berberian European Motors,
Horse Race, Casino Night and capped off with a
spectacular dinner dance with sounds from the
“Garibaldi Band”. Congratulations to our Overall
Champions & Flight Winners.

“G
irls just want to have fun!”
...and they did just that at our
Centennial Ladies Golf Invitational Birthday Bash! Our members and their
guests gathered to celebrate our special birthday
with friendship and golf competition in a true
party “happy” atmosphere... There were brightly
wrapped packages, balloons, party games, tablecloths and all ladies wearing bright pink or chartreuse green! Adrienne Hotchkiss and Susan Filios
joined forces as chairmen for this major undertaking! They and their committee did a marvelous
job! This was a Centennial Celebration that made
all of us feel very proud of the history and spirit of
our club!
A best ball format inspired team work and
camaraderie and the following teams were
victorious:

FROM THE EXECUTIVE CHEF
Message From Executive Chef

T
he Club’s breakfast, lunch, lounge and
dinner menus have changed to reflect
the season and offer more variety to our
dining venues. The Food and Beverage committee
and I look forward to your feedback on the menus.
We are working on building strong membership
support for all our dining venues and events.
We are introducing a limited happy hour varying
in themes for the summer at the pool and the next
one is on Friday July 18th, so come out and enjoy
happy hour specials available throughout the
clubhouse. The popular Taco Tuesdays and Slider
Bar Buffet will continue along with comfort food,
and three-course features in addition to all our
menus.
The next Centennial event is the Sun Kings
Concert on the Green!! A psychedelic flash back
tribute to the Beatles 50th anniversary and our
club’s 100th birthday. . Stephanie is currently
working on the Club’s first camp out on the range,
which has been postponed to Saturday, September
6th. A fun filled night with BBQ dinner, games,
ghost stories, t-shirt painting, s’mores and hot
chocolate followed by an early morning breakfast
buffet. She is doing a great job sending out weekly
e-blasts to the membership and marketing all our
upcoming events, so watch out for them.
I would like to thank all the attendees of the The
Point Reyes Chef’s demonstration. Karen Howard
Giacomini did a fantastic presentation of the farm,
the cheese and her family history. I am gathering
ideas for our next chef’s event in the same format
of courses paired with wine.
As you have noticed the club has been
extremely busy with outside events and the Ladies
Invitational. The feedback was very positive for this
event from our membership and guests.
Our dining venue hours are posted in our
bulletin and as you know there are many options.
One of the issues that private Clubs face that
restaurants do not is variety and options in menu
items. Restaurants have a target audience and
for example are ethic or concept based and Club
menus have to delve in all areas of trends and
lifestyle changes. We are trying to meet the needs
of membership in more ways such as offering more
gluten free and healthier items. Feedback, good or
bad from our membership is very important in this
area.
On behalf of the food and beverage department,
I thank you for your continued support.
