        • Stahl won the 1995 U.S. Senior Amateur to become the second Greater Cincinnatian to win a USGA amateur championship. The other was Johnny Fischer, then of Northern Kentucky, who won the 1936 U.S. Amateur. Stahl also was runner-up in the 1995 British Senior Amateur.

        At the local level, Stahl won numerous club championships at Terrace Park, Hyde Park and Cincinnati Country Club. He won the Fleischmann Cup at the Camargo Club 13 times. Stahl was Cincinnati Met medalist five times and runner-up twice.

        Stahl finished in the top 10 in the Ohio Amateur several times and twice made it to the semifinals in match play.

        At St. Xavier High, he captained the Bombers' first state championship golf team. He was runner-up in the Met Junior Championship, losing to Legends honoree Ed Heimann on the 39th hole.

        • Dell has been involved in all facets of Cincinnati golf for 56 years. The St. Xavier High and Xavier University graduate qualified for the Met 20 times, the Ohio Amateur eight times and the U.S. Amateur once.

        • McCarthy compiled one of the best records in the history of Cincinnati women's golf from the late 1930s to the mid-1950s, when she moved to Florida. She won the city title five times in a row (1939-43) as Dolly Schildmiller and added two more championships (1951 and '55) as Dolly McCarthy.

        • Loewe made huge contributions to Cincinnati amateur golf for more than a quarter-century. In 1926, he was elected Greater Cincinnati Golf Association executive secretary and was effective in improving tournament schedules and beginning close cooperation with grounds crew superintendents. In 1941, Loewe was elected president of the GCGA and served in that capacity until leaving town for Florida in 1952.

        The Legends of Cincinnati Golf was organized in 1981 to recognize and honor those who have significantly influenced amateur golf in the Queen City. Each year honorees are chosen by a committee chaired by Bruce Rotte.

        Prior to the recognition dinner, a golf competition is conducted for an invited field.

        Invitees must be at least 40 years old and have won a scratch-play tournament or be a special invitee for service to golf.

        GCGA president Jerry Thomas will be Master of Ceremonies at the dinner.
