Finally some
rain! It’s been a while since we’ve had
any meaningful precipitation and more is in the forecast for the next few
days. That’s good news for the golf
course. NOAA has increased the odds of
El Nino (wetter and cooler weather for Texas) conditions occurring, so
hopefully there’s a lot more to come this year.
By the time you read this, the pool will have opened, so I hope you come out and enjoy it this summer. If you have party plans, contact Courtney or Billy so they can put you on the books.
I want to say
thanks to everyone who helped at our Spring work day. I know most of you have been doing this for a
long time. I’ve never seen a membership
so invested in its club and that’s what makes Canyon Country Club special. Thank you to the Ladies Auxiliary for the new
counter in the pro shop. It looks very
nice and professional.
Blessings,
Chad
From the GM
Hope this finds
everyone ready for a fun filled summer of golf swimming and vacationing. I know that the warmer weather has me wanting
to play more golf. I want to thank
everyone who has been working hard to get the course and pool ready for
summer.
Remember that
Friday Night Scrambles are going on and this is a great way to meet fellow
members and have a good time.
We have a lot going
on this month around the club; please take a look at the calendar.
Thank you,
Billy
