From the President
It’s hard to imagine that summer has come and gone. We’ve had some ups and downs but overall it’s been a good summer and we are keeping our head above water.
With the end of summer comes the closing of the swimming pool. We closed the pool on August 23rd, we felt it was not cost effective to try and keep the pool operational during the week just to be open on Saturday and Sunday until Labor Day. We also lost one of our lifeguards to college so it was going to be hard to fill the spots with one less lifeguard. We estimated that we had over 1000 visitors to the swimming pool this past summer, that’s a lot of swimmers.
The Board of Directors met with a grant writer this past week, and we are very hopeful we can find some “free” money to help with course or facility improvements, and maybe help pay for some repaving of our roads within Canyon CC. We don’t know what kind of grants are out there, but the grant writer will explore every avenue possible.
We have formed a committee to head the exploration of the different grant options out there and what improvements we can make for the club. This committee will look at improving our roads, checking on the possibilities of repairing our well system, and even paying off our old SBA loan. This is only the start, with many other options on down the road. Right now we are in the process of getting our committee together, Dick Archer will be the Chairman with the committee members being, Wilma Higginbotham, Sue Herring, Joe Godfrey, Cindy Senter, Kyle Farmer. Other members may be appointed at a later time.
I know nearly everyone would love to see an additional 9-holes added, and that can be something we will look into, but we are going to prioritize some of our more pressing needs, then as we go on we will look at more improvements. The cost to hire this grant writer is $2,500 (she is giving us a ½ priced discount). We are glad accepting donations to help defray this cost. I know some people may think this $2,500 could be spent on some of these projects, but she assures us she will find us grant money to help cover the cost of some of these other larger tasks. I feel very comfortable that this will be money well spent. If you have any suggestions or would like to serve on the committee let me, any of the other board members or any committee members know.

It was a great summer this year. The weather never got to hot, we got a little bit of rain (keep your fingers crossed for more), and the golf course has never looked better. If you get a chance to see Mikal and his crew, be sure to tell him what a great job they have been doing.
The Ladies Chaparral was a big success this year. We had 28 teams from not only our club, but from all over the panhandle. Congratulations to Cindy Guelker and Kelli Mooring for winning first in the championship flight, Lori O'Loughlin and Kim Davis for placing third in the second flight, and Karen Steward and her partner, Gayle Brasher, for coming in second in the third flight.
The Super Scramble will be held August 30th with a 1:00 shotgun.This our year end member scramble. There will be over $1200 in prize money and possible skin money to be had. If you are interested in playing please call the shop to sign-up.
Hi-Plains Ladies Play Day will be held at CCC on Wednesday, September 9th. This will be a 9:00 shotgun start and regular play will start at 2:00 p.m.
The 19-Man Shootout is a fun event. It will be held on Sunday, September 13th. I will take the first 19 men to sign-up by the 12th of September. Cost is $10, so come out and enjoy the fun.
The Robert C. Burton 3-Man Scramble will be held on September 19th & 20th. There will be a morning and afternoon shotgun start on both days. To sign-up your team or if you have any questions, please call the golf shop.
The Ryder Cup Matches will begin on Saturday the 26th and end on Sunday the 27th. This is a fun event with the women versus the men. The men have won the last three years – but I’m sure the ladies will come out fighting to regain the cup. Every member is invited to play in this regardless of ability. If you would like to play or have any questions, please call the golf shop.
We will be closed on Monday, August 31st for fall aerfication. We will re-open on Tuesday at 10:00 for normal play.
We hope to see everyone on the golf course this fall. Remember that this is your club, so be proud to be a member. Remember to fix all your pitch marks on the greens, sand your divots in the fairways, and help keep us clean by picking up any stray trash you see lying around. Let's make sure that Canyon Country Club the best golf club in this area.

August Newsletter
From the President
This past month I played in the Club Championship. Believe it or not, it was my first time to play in the Championship. In years past either there was a scheduling conflict on my part or I didn’t feel like I was good enough to play. But I must say it was a lot of fun and very enjoyable. The horserace was exciting and nerve racking - not to brag but my team did win the horserace, (good job Cindy Guelker & Red Higginbotham). I want to thank Wayne and Beverly Johnson for the hard work and outstanding Bar-B-Q. I know Wayne and his sons were cooking most of the day and because of their generosity we raised over $600 for the club. Also bringing in some money was the dessert auction. It was very successful and we raised a little over $500 for the club just from cakes and pies. That weekend was a great time enjoying golf, food and fellowship with other members of the club. I want to encourage everyone next year to come and participate.
In other club business, the board is meeting with a grant writer to see if there is some funding to improve either the facilities or the course itself. We will explore several different projects, like building a new clubhouse and Proshop, building a new cart barn, improving the roads within the club, and course improvements. All this is very premature, but we wanted to let you know the board is constantly looking for ways to improve our club. We will keep you updated on any possible changes and invite you to attend the next board meeting and let us know what you think and how you would use the money to improve the club.
I would also like to ask our members to show their appreciation to the employees of Canyon Country Club. Our employees go above and beyond their duties most of the time, just to make members happy. They hear complaints from members about: the condition of the course or what they think the greens crew should be doing. People complain to the Pro Shop staff about slow play or who someone was pared with on a Friday night, and to the bartenders about their drink not being strong enough. This is only a sample of what they hear on a daily basis. Some of these employees work 10-12 hours a day, 6 or 7 days a week and they also want the best for our club. I think we all need to make a conscious effort to show them our appreciation for the work they do.
Jerry Neufeld – President

From the Pro Shop
The Club Championship was a great success this year. Not only did the tournament go well, the fundraising activities for the club went well also. The desert auction brought in $530.00 for the club and Wayne and Beverly Johnson's Bar-B-Que brought in over $600.00. That is over $1,100.00 for the club to use on various projects for the club. Thanks to all the ladies who made the wonderful deserts, everyone who bought and donated money for the deserts, and a big thanks to the Johnson group for the hard work and time.
Ryan Neufeld won a close match over Johnnie Guelker this year in our championship match for the Men's Club Championship. Trish Giacomazzi won her second straight Women's Club Championship.

July Newsletter
From the President:
I can’t believe what a difference a fresh coat of paint makes. I think everyone will agree that our faded, beat up looking Clubhouse and Pro Shop looks 100% better.
Business around the course has been pretty steady here lately; some weeks have been very profitable for the club while other weeks have not. In the month of May we had total of 1585 rounds of golf played, with two tournaments (Bucks & Does and the Grandmothers). The Kid’s Inc day/night tournament scheduled for June 20th was rained out and will likely be re-scheduled for sometime in August. This should not affect our members because they will not start until 6:00pm on a Saturday evening.
I know this is redundant but I want to say Thank You to all of our employees. They do a lot of behind the scene work that most will never see. Casey and the Pro Shop staff continue to offer outstanding customer service. I don’t think most people realize how much they do for our club. We are working on ways to update the Pro Shop and details will be forthcoming.
Mikel & his staff are continuing to improve conditions on the golf course. They have hydro-mulched several areas, and the grass is really coming in good. Number 6 & 8 greens have come in very well, with the sodding and extra care they have received. Without a doubt the golf course is in excellent condition.
From the land committee, there are only 2 lots left on the south rim overlooking the clubhouse, and 4 on the north side. If you are interested in any of these lots contact Dick Archer for the details.
Enjoy your summer, and I hope to see you on the course.
Jerry Neufeld – President
From the Golf Shop
The heat is here finally. We have had a pretty mild summer up until now. Keep praying for rain, the course still needs it. There are several things going on in July and August. First, we will be open for regular play on Saturday, July 4th. If you want to play that day, call early in the week and get your tee time. Non-members will be able to get a tee-time on Friday.
The course will be closed on Monday, June 29th so that Mikel and his crew can spray our greens with a chemical that is considered very toxic. As soon as Mikel gets the greens sprayed, he will water it in. As soon as that is done, then it will be safe to be on the greens again, but we want to ensure your safety, so we will re-open on Tuesday at 10:00 a.m.
NTPGA Jr. Tournament
Once again, Canyon Country Club is honored to host a Northern Texas PGA Jr. Tour event. The event will be held on July 9th. We are expecting around 60 kids to play our wonderful golf course. The course will open back up around 2:00 p.m.
Club Championship
Our club championship will be held July 11th & 12th. The format for the men will be match play and for the ladies will be stroke play (gross & net). I encourage all members to participate in this event. If you would like to sign-up for the club championship please call the golf shop. Starting times will be determined on Friday, July 10th.
After the morning round on Saturday, the Ladies Auxiliary will have a bake sale. The members of the Ladies Auxiliary will bring home made desserts to be auctioned off. All proceeds will go to the Auxiliary. The Auxiliary has done some fantastic things around the clubhouse with the money that they receive. The fun should start around 1:30 p.m. So come on out, even if you aren't playing in the tournament.
After the bake sale we will have our annual Man-Woman Shoot-out. This is always a fun event where the players in the tournament are paired up with each other (no husband-wife teams) and we have a 9-hole shoot-out.
When that is over with, Wayne & Beverly Johnson will be having his annual Bar-b-que. The Johnson family will be out cooking bar-b-que all day and they do a wonderful job. The meal is inexpensive and really good. All the proceeds that the Johnson's make goes back to the club. Bring out your family and enjoy some great food and fun. The bar-b-que should start around 6:30 p.m.
Roadrunner Invitational
Our biggest tournament of the year is July 24th through the 276h. All members should have received an invitation. Included in the invitation was a tee-box sponsor sheet. If you or someone you know is interested in helping sponsor this event then please mail back the sponsor sheet to the club. Thanks for your support and thanks for playing.
Pro-Member
Canyon Country Club’s annual Pro-Member will be held on Monday, August 3rd. I have many professionals from around the panhandle already signed up to play in the event. If you would like to play in the pro-member then call the shop. Starting times are flexible, so just let us know about what time that you can play. Thanks for supporting my Pro-Member.

June Newsletter
From the President:
I would like to say Thank You to all who turned out to help with what is becoming the annual CCC clean up day. Some people pulled weeds, others pushed brooms and power washed the patio or just pitched in wherever they could. On May 2nd we were able to remove the old storage building that was once was used for an old swimming pool. It took several people nearly 3 hours to remove it. Others also cleaned up behind the cart barn, and hauled away several loads of scraps. Old TV antennas were also taken down. All in all the buildings look much better, and just in time for our new paint job. By the time you receive your newsletter the building will have a fresh coat of paint and will hopefully be something everyone can be proud of.
I also want to say thank you to those who donated to the “Paint the Clubhouse” fund. With the support of quite a few of our members we have raised several hundred dollars towards this project. While we haven’t completely covered the total cost of the painting project, we have worked out a deal with a local painter.
We have other ideas to improve the look of the club but we can only do these as time & money allows.
After several hours of work the swimming pool is up and running. The hours for the swimming pool will be from 1:00pm to 7:00pm seven days a week. If you are interested in reserving the pool for a private pool party, contact Courtney for a request form. Also we are now requiring 2 lifeguards on all parties of 15 or more people.
Thanks again for everyone who helped out on May 2nd, and to those who made donations as well. Enjoy your golf, and the new look of our Clubhouse and Proshop.
Jerry Neufeld – President
From the Golf Shop
Summer has arrived. We got some much need rainfall over Memorial Day Weekend. The golf course is coming in very nicely. The fairways are still a little thin, so be sure to stay on the cart paths as long as possible. The less cart traffic we have on these old bermuda fairways the better they will look.
I would like to thank everyone who donated money to the “Paint the Clubhouse and Pro Shop Fund”. The painting should be done be the time the Bucks & Does starts. I think it will look great and we could not have done it without the generosity of our members. Thanks again.
Bucks & Does

May Newsletter
From the President:
The Friday night scrambles are in full swing, it’s a lot of fun getting out and meeting other members of the club. I want to encourage everyone to come and play on Friday nights.
I want to remind everyone that we are going to be painting the exterior of the clubhouse and pro-shop on May 2nd. The course is closed that morning until 2:00pm for an outside tournament so there is no reason our member’s cannot come out and help. We will start painting at 9:00am so bring your painting supplies and help beautify our facility. If you have any ladders that you can bring that would also be helpful. Some areas are going to be difficult to reach without a ladder or some type of scaffolding. Thanks also to those who have donated to the “paint the clubhouse fund” so far we have raised nearly $300 towards the purchase of paint.
Mikel & Javier are working on some projects to help with the condition of the course. They have installed a sprinkler system and will be seeding or hydro mulching the area between number 6 fairway and number 7 green. As soon as they get this area finished they are heading over to number 2 fairway, to do some more irrigation and seeding or hydro mulching. Next up is the green on # 6 and # 8. They are waiting for more consentient warm weather to re-sod some of areas that were hit with disease last year.
Casey and they pro shop staff continue to offer great customer service and a large variety of merchandise in the shop. They also have many catalogs for that hard to find item or apparel.
That’s all for this month, hope to see you out on the course.
Jerry Neufeld – President
From the Golf Shop
Hope everyone is having a nice spring. The golf course is coming in nicely. Thanks to everyones' effort for staying on the cart path. Many people may be wondering why we stay on the cart paths for so long. There are one simple explanation, cart traffic causes compaction of the turf. When it is dry and the grass is dormant, by driving over the grass, we are doing severe damage to the grass. There can be damage to the roots and this can cause the grass to not come in healthy. It is best for the grass in the fairway to not have any traffic at all until the grass is healthy enough to absorb all of the traffic. So, in short, it may be just a little longer until we are able to get off the paths, but the fairways will look and play a lot better because of the efforts and sacrifices we have made this winter and early spring. May is a busy month. Please check the calendar for all of our upcoming events.
ATO Golf Scramble
The golf course will be closed the morning of Saturday, May 2nd, for the ATO Golf Scramble. We will re-open around 1:30 for regular play. This is a great opportunity for you to come help out with the work day in the morning, eat a great lunch with Teresa, then still be able to get in 18 holes that afternoon.
Ladies Guest Day
Ladies Guest Day is scheduled for May 7th. All ladies are invited to play in this event. We will have a 9:00 shotgun start with a meal following play. There will also be a light breakfast in the morning before play. This is a great event, all of our ladies get to show our great golf course to other women from around the panhandle.
High School Fundraiser Day/Night Tournament

A Calcutta and meal will follow play on Saturday. Cost for the tournament will be $120 per team plus the cost of a cart. This event is always fun so come on out.

April Newsletter
From the President
The weather seems to be getting better everyday (except for the wind). I hope everyone has taken advantage of the mild winter and played some golf. The only thing we need now is some much-needed moisture.
I would like to take this opportunity to say a big Thank You to Kay Reynolds & Rhonda Stephenson for the outstanding work they did in painting the inside of the clubhouse. They definitely went out of their way and did a fantastic job. Thanks also goes to Roger Senter, Cindy Senter, Red Higginbotham, Ron Reynolds, David Stephenson and the Pro Shop staff; Casey and Zach for their help in installing the new ceiling fans and doing some painting themselves. It really makes the room more inviting. Thanks again Kay and Rhonda.
All that work brings up my next point. We have scheduled a paint and clean-up day for May 2nd. The main goal is to paint the outside of the clubhouse and Pro Shop. We would love to have lots of people there to help in this major undertaking. Just for information, there is an outside tournament that morning so the course will be closed until 1:00pm or so. The bad news for everyone is we’ve taken away an excuse for you not to help. We will probably use rollers and brushes to paint it so if you have extra supplies bring them along. I realize we could use airless sprayers and it would go much faster, the problem is the wind and the fact that the parking lot will be full of cars for the tournament. I don’t think we need to take the chance of getting paint splatter on the vehicles. If you would like to make a financial donation to the “paint the clubhouse & pro-shop fund” you can drop it off with Casey or Courtney. Some members of the ladies auxiliary have already donated $100 to the cause. In addition to painting the buildings we will possibly take on a few other projects that day so if painting is not your thing we can find something for you to do.
While some of you might say, I pay my dues to have someone else do this type of work, think of the image we can have on this outside group coming to play our course that day. Since we all agree that we need more members, what better impression can we make by coming together as a Club to help beautify our facility and to show them our “family” atmosphere.
I wanted to take just a moment to share the results of the survey that was sent out last month. Of the 144 members (stock & associate), we received 62 of the back. Without going into took much detail of all the findings I will just highlight a few things right now, and we will have more information later on. As the subject of what members would like to see done at CCC, expanding to an 18-hole facility received the most #1 votes with 18, second was course improvement with 17 #1 votes, doing nothing at all was next with 13, followed by improving the structures with 7 and going private on weekends received 6 votes. Going totally private did not receive any first choice votes.
On the financial side of the survey, 21 members stated they wanted no additional dues as their first option; the $10-$30 & $30-$50 both received 13 each and $50-$70 received 8 votes as their #1 choice and 4 people stated $70 or more increase.
The board of directors will look over the surveys and the comments that were made and try to develop a course of action to recommend that will serve the entire membership.
Remember to keep May 2nd on your calendar to pitch in and be a part of Canyon Country Club.

Friday Night Scrambles
Friday Night Scrambles start on April 10th. Sign-up by 4:00 and we start at 6:00. The scrambles are on the 10th (Fri.) and the 24th (Fri.).
There are going to be a few changes this year in the scrambles. First, when there is a weekend tournament we will not have a scramble that week. I have noticed through my three years that when we have Thursday scrambles, participation is low. We do still have some scrambles on Thursday, be sure to check the calender for these dates.
Also, this year we will be an ongoing competition throughout the whole summer. Each time you sign-up and play in a scramble you will receive five points. Then, points will be awarded by how your team places in the weekly event. For example, Joe Member plays on Friday and his team finishes first among ten other teams. Joe Member will receive five points for playing and and additional ten points for being on the first place team (as will all of his teammates). There will be prizes for our players that finish in the top five. I hope that this will encourage everyone to play in more of our scrambles and I think it will make it fun. If you have any questions, please call the golf shop.
WT Bowlers Tournament
The WT Bowlers Fundraising Tournament is scheduled for Wednesday, April 15th with a 12:00 shotgun. This was not on your original tournament schedule but was approved by the Board of Directors. Please note that the course will be closed that afternoon till around 5:30 p.m.
2-Man Low Ball
The 2-Man Low Ball will be held on April 18h& 19th. There will be a morning and afternoon shotgun both day with a meal on Saturday and a Calcutta. Teams will be flighted by your combined handicap. Call the pro shop to sign-up.
Annual Men's Golf Trip
This year's annual golf trip will be to Trinidad, Colorado. The dates for the trip will be June 5th – 7th. We will be playing Cougar Canyon (a Jack Nicklaus design) on Friday afternoon and Sunday morning. We will play Grandote Golf Club on Saturday. The total cost of the trip is $400 (this includes golf and hotel). If you are interested in going please call the golf shop or Derek Jones at 336-4533 for more information.
Congrats!
Our long time employee of the club and good friend, Robert King, is getting married to his fiancé, Rebekah Foss, on Saturday, March 28th. Robert and Beka will honeymoon in Las Vegas the following week. Congratulations and good luck on your new life together.

March Newsletter
From the President
I would like to welcome Dick Archer, Rick Dabney, and Roger Senter to the Board of Directors. I look forward to serving with them and I look forward to making Canyon Country Club the best course in the panhandle.
At the annual stockholders meeting, it seemed the common theme for our success is increasing membership. The board has implemented a “Membership Drive” for a limited time to get new members. The plan for new joining associate members is they pay their first month’s dues and a $50 initiation fee (no longer first and last months dues). The initiation fee can also be waived if the new member signs up for automatic draft. We are still working on an incentive for stock members. We need every member of Canyon Country Club to recruit just one new member.
One thing that came up at our board meeting was the issue of our golf carts. While there is no perfect answer to the problems we have encountered, we can be thankful that our damage has been minimal. The only damage our carts have suffered in the course of nearly one full year of use is we had one U-frame bent. The board would like to remind all members to be cautious when using the carts. If you see someone whom you think is abusing a cart, be polite and say something to him or her, don’t yell across the course. If you do not feel comfortable with doing that, call the Pro Shop and hopefully they will have someone available to go out and talk to them.
The club is on the lookout for a brush/tree chipper. Mikel and the guys are constantly trimming and cutting down trees and chipping them would be more beneficial than hauling the limbs off to a brush cutting site or even disposing them on the 42 acres we have for sale. If you know where we can get one for a decent price let one of the board members know.
By now you also received a detailed letter and survey about what you would like to see at our club. Please take the time to fill out the survey and mail it back as soon as possible. We will compile the data and inform the members of our findings.

I would like to thank everyone for playing in the Polar Bear and in Mikel’s Revenge/ Beat the Pro. Both events went well and the weather was warm, unfortunately the wind blew. For those of you who played in Mikel's Revenge, I bet you can agree on how lucky we are that the pins aren't in those positions every day. Here is a list of winners from Mikel's Revenge.
Mikel’s Revenge / Beat the Pro
1st Place – Holly & Lynn Johnston
2nd Place – Charlie McClure and Fernando Villalobos
3rd Place – Johnnie Guelker & Phil Mancuso
4th Place – Janice & Stan Price
5th Place – Garry Erdman & Cleve Gustin
Thanks again for playing.
The Adios to Winter 3 – Person Scramble will be held on March 14th and 15th. There will be a morning and afternoon shotgun on both days. If you would like to play please call the golf shop for more information or to sign up.
Ladies Auxiliary
The Ladies Auxiliary will be meeting on Thursday, March 12th at 7:00 p.m. All ladies are invited to come and be a part of the Ladies Auxiliary
The first official Wednesday Ladies Night is April 8th. Starting this year, we are asking that you contact the golf shop (499-3397) by 4 p.m. This will allow Casey to set up the teams in advance. Also, we are asking that you let Casey know if you would like to eat dinner afterwards, so Theresa can have an accurate head count for supper.
The Ladies will start selling raffle tickets soon for our September drawing. Money from the raffle goes to improvements for the club. One of the improvements made recently was the new ceiling fans in the bar and foyer area. They look great.
Thank You
First, a big thanks goes to Roger and Cindy Senter and Red Higginbotham for putting in the new ceiling fans. They all work and no one got injured in the process. Also, thanks to Kay Reynolds and Rhonda Stephenson for all the work that they are doing. They have recently started to repaint the foyer and hall areas inside the clubhouse. A big THANK YOU to all of you for volunteering your time and efforts.
