The Swingers hosted their first exchange of the year on April 22. Swing Into Spring was attended by 49 Swingers and guests from Almaden Country Club, San Jose Country Club, Saratoga Country Club and also from Fremont, Mission Hills, 808’ers, Stonebrae, Boulder Ridge and Deep Cliff. A big thank you to Mary Wagle for organizing the event. Also, thanks to Diane Nelson and Joyce Mukuno for staffing check-in, the Villages Men’s Golf Club for providing four bag boys, and our Director of Golf, Scott Steele, and his staff. The breakfast and taco salad bar lunch were expertly prepared and served by the Food and Beverage staff, so we thank them too.
