Remember the Country Club Boil - April =
24th.
From the General Manager
The snow is melting and the river is fl=
owing, both are good things. Numbe=
rs around town vary greatly on what the river will crest at this spring.
Over the next several weeks, we will be=
putting the pro shop back together as our new inventory begins to show up =
during March. Remember that if you=
are looking for new equipment, give Mark a call and he will get you a quot=
e on what you are looking for. We=
will once again be having some drivers from Cleveland to demo on the range=
or on the course.
Remember that you need to have your mem=
bership paid before you can play this spring or you must pay green feesl.
See you at the course. Countdown to the Masters - 30 days (3/9/10)

Mitch and Denny were getting ready to t=
ee off on the first hole when Denny noticed that Mitch got a new set of clu=
bs. Denny asked Mitch how he like =
the clubs and if they’ve helped his game at all. Mitch replied, “Oh yeah, they’re great clubs! They’ve added at least 25 yards to my slices, ab=
out 30 yards to my hooks and you would be surprised at the size of my divot=
s!”

From the Board of Directors
After the annual meeting, the new board=

stad.
We would like to also highlight the ear=
ly work of our “Remodeling Committee”. This group first met late fall of last year. Over the last several months, they have met several times t=
o discuss and develop a list of needs for the clubhouse. This list of improvements totals over $65,000. The list includes new table tops, new c=
hairs, new bar stools, new bar top, new carpet and dance floor. It includes continuing the replacement of wi=
ndow and window treatments, painting of the entire facility, new banquet ta=
bles and buffet line.
The group has now begun the fundraising=
phase of the project. To kick off=
the fundraising, they have organized and sold out a “Lobster Boil” that wi=
ll be held on April 24th. The meal=
will include clam chowder, live lobster, jumbo shrimp, steak, rice pilaf, =
and a dessert bar featuring the best desserts some of our members can make.=
Over the course of the year, there will=
be many opportunities to contribute to our remodeling fund and several oth=
er events are in the planning stages for this year so watch for flyers hang=
ing around the club and in the newsletter.
