Schultz held the office of secretary in 2002 and held the office of trustee from 2004-12 when he stepped down to focus on his career.
He has assisted with various projects at the club including the kitchen and bar remodel, HVAC replacement, floor tile replacement in the pool room and backroom, ceiling tile repair and spring cleanup efforts.
Schultz ran the meat raffles for the turkey raffle and holiday party and has also volunteered at the annual golf outing, Margaritaville (12 years) at the Grill, Beer Can Chicken (8 years) as the Grill Master, Friday Fish Fry (6 years) as a cook.
Schultz has helped with various other events such as Halloween party, Oktoberfest and the 125th anniversary celebration.
