March 2011 Newsletter

From the President
The snow we had was wonderful for the golf course. Hopefully the bitterly cold weather is behind us and as the weather warms up, and there is an increase in play.

Welcome our new board of directors. If you don’t know who they are, stop in the club house and see their photos hanging on the wall. Already they have come up with some new ideas that will help play and improve our course. If you have any ideas to help improvements, please give your information to one of these folks.

Tim is finally here. If you haven’t had a chance to meet him, stop by the pro shop and visit with him. He brings us some new and fresh ideas for the club. He is also busy painting and cleaning up the pro shop. What a difference a coat of paint makes.

We had a very successful Polar Bear tournament and the Mikel’s Revenge / beat the Pro tournament. I think this is the first time the weather has cooperated. Good turn out. It was good to see folks back on the course playing again.

The next time you play, look around the course. Mikel and his crew have been doing some clean-up. The old brick fountains on No 4 tee box and No. 9 tee box are gone. Also, (thanks to Roger Senter), we have removed the old shed and tank next to No. 3 tee box. When you are out and about, if you see any trash, coke cups, beer cans etc. please pick them up and put them in a trash can.

Get your clubs out of the garage, clean them up, buy some new balls from Tim, the grass shows signs of green and the weather is warming up so: LET’S PLAY GOLF!

Dick Archer – President
Board of Directors

From the Golf Shop
Thanks so very much for the warm welcome I have received here from all of you members. I am excited to be here, and appreciate the opportunity you all have given me. I have done some extensive cleaning in the golf shop along with some new paint colors and some organization. Hopefully you will like the new look in there!!

I will soon have some new merchandise on order, although I still need to visit with the representatives from the golf companies and get accounts set up, merchandise ordered and so forth. So please bear with me as new things should start showing up in the golf shop soon. If there is something you would like to see carried in the shop such as a favorite brand of clothing or balls or clubs, please let me know.

I would like to thank all of you who showed up to support the beat the pro tournament on the 19th. It was a great showing from the members, as me and Mikel didn’t win one single bet. Ouch!! All of the credit from this event has been put onto your club accounts, and you can use those credits for purchasing merchandise in the shop.

On that note, according to my understanding in the past you paid your golf shop accounts through the club. With the new point of sale system I am installing in the shop, you will actually see a separate statement from me if you happen to have an outstanding balance. So just a heads up on that.

I am still learning everyone’s names and faces, so please bear with me if I happen to refer to you as someone else. I promise to do my best to know you all soon!! Again thanks for all your hospitality, and if there is anything I can do for you please don’t hesitate to ask!!
