Helvetia Wealth’s Chairman, Ottmar Ruoff greeted all the guests with a warm smile and beamed proudly as the participants registered to play.

Mr. Ruoff entertained guests out on the veranda overlooking the gorgeous green fairways against a backdrop of mountains and colors of the changing leaves, reminding everyone of the recent cold and rain as winter soon approaches.
