Member Spotlights: Tamra Scheurman is owner of Tamra Scheurman Design. She started her own business five years ago after being a graphic designer for over 26 years. Tamra says, "I took a leap of faith and never turned back. It's essential to have a good balance between using your own creativity and business sense." Tamra read an article about EWGA in The wichita Eagle and thought this type of organization was right up her alley. She was active in forming our local chapter of KWGA. She says she joined "so that I could play golf on a regular basis while networking with other business women". Tamra grauduated from KU and is extremely happy with this year's national title. She says her favorite in town course is Rolling Hills while the mountain course at the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs is her favorite vacation course as the view is spectacular. Tamra starting playing golf at a very early age and has played for almost 41 years. She loves the game and plans to play for at least another 41 years. She did admit that she finally broke down just this year and instead of carrying her clubs she is using a pull cart.Mary Hemmelgarn is Vice President of Finance and Accouting Outsourcing at Accenture BPO Services She joined EWGA to learn how to play and says, "As an executive woman I needed to take advantage of the opportunity to do business and socialize on the golf course". She enjoys all aspects of EWGA as she enjoys meeting and visiting with other members and has a great time at both social and player events. Her favorite local golf course is MacDonald. She played Lake Tacoma in Oklahoma and was taken aback by the beautiful ridges and breathtaking view. For those who know Mary, you might be surprised to learn she ran the San Diego marathon in 2004. She says prior to training, "I didn't run even to get the phone" and is now an avid walker. And congratulations to Mary as she is planning to be married in June. Mary's response to something I always do before I hit a shot, "I always smile and don't take myself too seriously. I"m just thrilled to be playing."
