Mark’s love of the game was one of the reasons he decided to join the RDGA Board. “I always try to continue to give back to the game that has given me so much. Beyond a few tournament wins here and there (2010 RDGA Senior Champion) the number of lifetime friendships and acquaintances that I have made over the years while playing this great game is priceless.”
