Victory Tastes Sweet For SVCC Captain

The captain of the SVCC, Bill Auld, finally tasted championship victory at last Sunday's Bernardsville CC sponsored "Tick Open". The BCC Groundskeeper Gary Simpson remarked "Billy Jo no longer holds the title of best player to have not won a championship!"

When asked about his victory Auld said "Some may say it's only backyard golf, but I won’t soon forget the roar of the crowd and the raised arms of the other players! That's great-everyone's rooting for each other." Adding that finally drinking from the BCC Cup "was not too shabby either."

The BCC put on another class event with her usual charm, as it welcomed back open championship golf after a 1year hiatus. The course-as always challenging and beautiful- and the day-pristine.

All constestants and spectators left anxiously awaiting their return to these hallowed grounds of golf.

SVCC Membership Seeks BCC Cup at Saturday's BCC Tick Open

The SVCC membership has its sights set on the BCC Cup given out by the BCC each year to the winner of the Tick Open. Members scheduled to vie for the championship are Bill Auld, Rober' Auld, Tony D'anna and Derek Schulz.

The Rivalry between the two clubs has really started to come to a boil. This As evidenced by SVCC member TD who stated he went into the Steeplechase expecting the friendly camaraderie that he has become accustomed to all these years. "What I found was really quite different and in the finals I felt like Derek Jeter coming to the plate at Fenway. All that was missing was someone throwing a beer on me.” said D'anna.

With regards to D'anna's much publicized "chin music" in the Steeplechase Finals, spectator Barbara Cicero noted that "Mr. D'anna really sent a message -almost like a warning shot across the bow of the BCC gallery".

“If that’s the game they want, then that’s the game they will get”, said D’Anna. “Going to the BCC for the Tick will be a homecoming of sorts for us. The last time we left there it was as Interclub champions. Other than the SVCC, I don’t think we’re more comfortable on any other course.”

This proves the SVCC-BCC rivalry has reached new heights. It should provide for some interesting fireworks at this Saturday's Tick Open .

Another Great EWG Day at SVCC

The Executive Women's Golf Association had their second annual "Nine and Wine" event at the SVCC on Tuesday September 4th. The Greenskeeper showed the way on the #1 Tee and then sent the EWG group of Penny, Bev, Judy, Jan, Laurie, and Marcie off in search of birdies. Much revelry could be heard from the clubhouse as the group attacked the course with their usual enthusiam.


By the time Sharon arrived for the post round festivities the Steeple View C.C. had itself a new Ladies Course Record, as Bev posted an impressive 34 to take the honors on this day. Marcie posted a somewhat higher score but still took home some hardware given out by our host Penny.

The Staff at the SVCC would like to thank all those who participated in the 2nd EWG Day at the Steeple View Country Club. Hope to see you in '08.
