Carol Onufro received quite the birthday gift last Thursday at her home course, Sunnehanna Country Club. But it’s a gift that, she knows, comes with responsibility.
Onufro was elected the 105th President of the Western Pennsylvania Golf Association, succeeding Ken Flisek following a successful term leading the WPGA’s Board of Directors.
“There is such a tremendous, storied history in the last 125 years of the WPGA, and I see it as a privilege to play a part in helping continue the legacy of West Penn Golf,” said Onufro.
In doing so, Onufro became the second woman in the 125-year history of the WPGA to occupy the role, and she hopes that is something that resonates with female golfers in the region.
