Alex Arbogast has recently been named the general manager for the Pontiac Elks Country Club.

Arbogast was born and raised in Pontiac and has spent his career working at various country clubs throughout the state.

He says he is looking forward to taking over at the end of March.

“The idea of being back in my hometown and being around the people I grew up with and playing golf with is pretty exciting,” Arbogast said.

He will be taking over for longtime managers Ron and Carla Dohman.
