It is with deep sadness reporting the passing of Stan Zontek(our USGA agronomist since 1987)

WVCC and the golfing world lost a great person this week with the passing of Stan Zontek. He has made yearly visits to our club since 1987. His advice ranging from turfgrass health, tree removals and input on the future of WVCC will be missed. His territory of responsibility was the Mid-Atlantic region but he was an integral part at every U.S. Open and any major USGA event. Those at the club who have known him over the years will realize that we truly lost a dear friend.
