COME JOIN THE FUN!!!
SMITH GROUP GOLF CLUB HISTORY
Smith Group Golf Club was started in the 70s by Al Smith and friends at Al Smith's Pub.
Tom LeClaire joined the club and ran it from the late 80s until he passed in November 2015.
After Tom's passing, Al Smith resumed the duties of running the club. In 2009, Pat O'Hara joined the club and became Al's assistant. Al passed in September 2017.
Pat then took the lead and ran the club with the help of Herb Turetzky and George Favela. In March 2025, Pat's move to Scottsdale required that she hand the duties of running the club to Jim and Darcy Meyer.
Pat still plays with the group on occasion. Herb and George still play with the group regularly and provide assistance to Jim and Darcy as needed.

ABOUT THE GROUP.
We are a "life experienced" group of golfers playing every Thursday on courses in Tucson, Green Valley, Vail, and Benson, Arizona. We play year round . . . even in the summer heat. We miss our winter visitors during the hot months, but it's always nice when they return in the fall. All you need to join us is a sense of humor and an established handicap. If you need assistance in establishing a handicap we can help you through the process.
