Alpine Meadows open house a lively lift-off By Rochelle Danielson For The Chieftain If the Friday evening open house at Alpine Meadows on opening day is any indication of what the 2016 golf season will garner, then the club should be looking to an exciting year. The April 1 weather was a Wal- lowa County miracle. Its warmth helped bring out scads of golfers and non-golfers alike to enjoy the golf course scene with samples of barbecue ribs, pulled pork and sal- ads from Sherri Currie’s clubhouse menu, drinks from the bar, and socializing. The unusual outdoor temperature prompted Clubhouse Manager Jimmy Bivens to unlatch windows and open both doors to the covered patio, which gave the club- house interior an air of springtime freshness and created a pleasant mingling atmosphere.
