John and Jan Stewart
Membership type:
Family golf equity members since 1981
Occupations:
(ret.) Director of Engineering Operations for McDonnell Douglas and owner of The Bath Cottage in Cocoa Village
“Our membership is fun, friendly, and rewarding. We have met many interesting people and forged many close friendships. I’ve never had a problem getting a tee time, and the course is challenging – no matter how many times you’ve played it.”
A typical day would include a round of golf for one or both of them, followed by lunch or dinner at the clubhouse and then a golf cart ride to their home on the 15th hole, where they’ve lived since 1993. John also bragged that Jan has won the ladies’ championship at least four times, but he mysteriously had no comment on his own tournament record…
