Gentlemen of the BTC |
December 25, 2025 |
On behalf of
all the
Officers of
the Builders
Tee Club, we
wish
everyone a
very Merry
Christmas
and Happy
and Healthy
New Year!
Gentlemen,
I have to pass along some sad news, Gary Bybee has passed away. It happened Saturday 12/27/25 & it was sudden. The services will be held on Saturday January 3rd, in Tampa, FL. Click HERE for more details.

It was
another good
afternoon of
bowling at
Burr Oak.
I am sure a
lot of guys
bowled
really well,
I just don't
know because
for the
fourth time
out of
eight, I
forgot go
take a
picture of
the scores.
Could have
been all the
Christmas
cheer.
My team only
won one game
as we did
not bowl
very well.
I was 0 for
3 on ten
pins and
Waldo was 1
for 2 on 7
pins.
I am super
glad I am
not going to
keep track
on those
anymore.
I am sure
you guys are
too.
After
bowling, at
the bar,
Tommy
Ollenburger
came up with
another good
game.
Name 3
colleges for
every letter
of the
alphabet.
It was not
that easy,
but Keith
Tadevich was
the MVP as
he came up
with a lot
of answers.
It was fun
and we will
see what
Tommy O
comes up
with next
week.
Speaking of
Keith, it
was so nice
of him to
buy every
team a drink
and the
bartender,
Aketa, or
whatever her
name is, for
bringing us
a round of
shots.
Don't know
what it was
but it was
very good.
So, thanks
again Keith
and all
their
workers for
being good
to us.
Da
Bears did it
again in the
fourth
quarter as
they keep
your heart
pumping the
whole game.
But it sure
was great to
see them
beat the
Packers and
the Lions
lost so Da
Bears are in
the
playoffs.
They still
have two big
games left
against San
Fran and
Detroit.
Victories
would sure
be nice.
Well,
this is my
last
newsletter
as Tim McGee
is taking
over.
I am sure
you guys are
all happy
about that.
But it was a
pleasure
writing this
but hard to
come up with
something to
say.
And I would
not have
been able to
do it if it
wasn't for
my daughter
Katie as she
put my ugly
writing on
the computer
for me.
Without her,
I don't
think I
would have
been able to
handle this.
Thanks so
much Kate.
"You're
welcome,
Dad, it was
fun getting
to be a
little part
of your club
this past
year."
