We would like to thank everyone who responded to the survey we sent out earlier this month. We have received several back so far and continue to get many more every day. We are taking your constructive criticisms very seriously and again, truly appreciate you taking the time to fill them out and send them in. By the April newsletter, we should have received several more and can then begin to look at them all and make a list of priorities based on members' response.

The first Match Play marathon begins March 1st. Good luck to everyone participating! If you missed out on this one, the next competition will begin sometime in June. We will keep you posted on the exact date.


Jimmy's Golf Tip of the Month!

*With the busy golf season fast approaching, we urge all members to call ahead for tee times.
*Please help us take care of the golf course by repairing all ball marks and sanding all divots.
