Branch 129 Columbus, OH By Arpad Sibrik Branch 129 Coordinator A picture perfect day greeted 84 golfers at the magnificent Turn­­berry Golf Course July 13 for the Association’s 13th Annual Golf Tournament. Everyone had a wonderful time. Sorry to say that the beautiful white 1996 Mercury Sable had to be driven back to the Bob Boyd Mercury dealership, since no one had a hole-in-one on the third hole. Congratulations to low gross winners Dorothy Costantini and Michael Varhelyi, low net win­ners Viola Matyas and Colum­bus’ own John Horvath Jr., and the winners of the skill shots. The Friday night hospitality reception was a great success. The lovely food and luscious Hungarian pastries made every­one’s mouths water. The Saturday night banquet of chicken breast and beef combina­tion was excellent. The carrot cake for dessert hit the spot. The winner of the Ping Zing golf clubs during the auction raffle was Vice Chairman of the Board Elmer Furedy. We hope the new clubs will help him lower his score a few strokes. Congrat­ulations, Elmer. We wish to extend our heart­felt thanks to the Home Office staff for all their help and sup­port. Our thanks also go to Nick Scarpetti and his crew at Turn­­berry, Jack Sangalio at the Bob Boyd Mercury dealership and the staff at the Holiday Inn-Colum­­bus East for the fine accommoda­tions. We also thank the ladies of the Women’s Guild at the Hungarian Reformed Church for all the deli­cious pastries and our own Piri Sibrik for baking and tastefully arranging the pastries and deliver­ing them to the hotel.
