NORTH PLAINS, Ore. — If you walk around one of the hospitality grandstands or through the fan village at the LIV Golf Invitational Series event near Portland, you’ll see pairs of people roaming through the crowds and keeping tabs on the fans.
You can’t miss ’em. After all they’re wearing bright yellow shirts that read “Alcohol Monitors” in all capital letters. For events like this at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club, alcohol monitors are an Oregon requirement for OLCC, the Oregon Liquor Control Commission.
“For liquor, permits are required to have alcohol monitors, so the catering company is in charge of the alcohol plan and so they have to go out and find alcohol monitors,” said Jeromy Hasenkamp, owner of Pac-Tac Protective Solutions. The security company provides off-duty officers that have three or more years of law enforcement experience for everything form protective details to event security.
