    All About Electrical Systems

    What: In this class, our very own John Niemiec (EM at Westmoor CC) and Matt Radatz (EM at Hawks Landing GC) will be discussing electrical systems.  Host EM, Adam Hamus, will also be offering a tour of the Butte des Morts CC shop.


    Morning donuts & coffee and lunch will be provided courtesy of our generous Industry Partners.


    Where: Butte des Morts Country Club

    1411 S. Bluemound Drive

    Appleton, WI 54914


    When: December 1 from 9 am-1 pm.


    This event is free to any WGCSA EM member.  If there isn't enough interest from our EMs, we will open it up to general membership, too.  The cost is $50 for non-member EMs, and this fee can be converted to cover that individual's annual EM membership for 2026.
