Tough day for the Greens Department on Saturday. Around 4:40 PM on 5/7, I was on my way to Lancaster, PA with my wife and kids when I received a call from Allan Irwin. Allan informed me that my office was on fire and the fire department was on the way. I turned around headed back to the club to make everyting was under control. Hugo Miranda, a long time member of the Greens Team was at the club when the fire started and tried to fight it with an extinguisher. Mike Barillo was with Hugo and called 911. Hugo was able to save one of the computers from the office before it became fully engaged. The fire inspector said the fire started in the ceiling over the bathroom near the vent fan. I will be setting up an office in the clubhouse Monday and working hard to rebuild our shop.

Montgomery County responded very quickly to the 911 call.
