Bruce Beuchler Memorial Bench Starts off a New Program ... Douglas Lowe CGCS

The Club has now gone away from its Memorial Tree Program on the Irving Park course and transitioned into a new opportunity for remembrance.  Approved by the Board of Directors late last year, the new golf course Memorial Bench Program will allow a limited number of individuals the opportunity to remember deceased members with benches located at select sites throughout the Irving Park Course.

Bruce Beuchler 17 Tee
Our first bench placement for the new program, which is dedicated solely for the Irving Park golf course, was for Bruce Beuchler who joined the club in August of 1979.  The donation was made by his long time friends in the "Golf Group".  The bench now rest to the right of 17 tee at the corner of Granville and Country Club.

While the Irving Park course has transitioned away from the Tree Program due to limited site opportunities and the ongoing study involving the creation of a new Master Plan for the entirety of the Irving Park property that same program still continues on the Farm Course.

FITNESS / TENNIS
A separate but similar program also exist for the areas in and around the fitness building and tennis courts. The first bench included in that program was placed at the entrance of the fitness building in remembrance of David F. Flynt during the fall of 2013.
