Good afternoon,
Welcome to November and I hope everyone is doing well.
I want to start by thanking everyone for coming to the Member / Resident Meeting yesterday and it was a great turn out and great questions. I look forward to the next meeting in January!!
The Maintenance team had another strong week as the team is buying into Todd’s new plans and direction. The Golf Course continues to get better each day and I’ve heard numerous wonderful comments. The cuts on the fairways, tees and greens continue to get better and the speed on the greens have gotten a lot better as well.
We did open hole 11 today and I know there is a small amount of water there and we will continue to pump as much as we can. I know that a few individuals have contacted The City and The County to see if we can get any help from them. Hopefully with the wonderful weather that we’ve been having the water levels will continue to go down and we don’t have to worry about this anymore. We appreciate everyone’s understanding and support and everyone that has helped as well…
Next week we will be verticutting and top-dressing the greens as we are making sure that we continue to have a better product to offer everyone. The team will continue to work on killing the weeds and other smaller projects that we have down to do. Also, I know that everyone is waiting for the tree company to show up and get the work done that I’ve been trying to accomplish for quite some time now. They called me yesterday and said they are almost done with the Hurricane work they had to do and will be on our property November 12th & 13th. We are still determined to have great Golf Course conditions and get a product we are all happy with.
Please stop by and get your memberships applications as we are still taking applications, and this also includes the F&B Social Memberships. I do know that I had questions yesterday at my meeting about seasonal memberships and wanted to have an answer on how many other Troon courses offer this membership. In Florida we don’t offer any seasonal memberships during the high season. We do offer in South Florida summer seasonal memberships.
We continue to get new product into the Golf Shop and have had numerous great comments about them and also individuals asking for different sizes that I’ve ordered. Please keep supporting us and keep asking questions and we will continue to work with you.
Please sign up for the following event:
· November 23rd - Thanksgiving Turkey Trot – 8:30 Shotgun Start, lets have another successful event.
The F&B Department continue to be successful, and we keep making great strides. I know there has been some concerns on staffing and certain rumbling about the staff. As most of you know, Eric has put in his notice and this is Eric’s choice as he is moving onto a different adventure in his life, and it’s been a privilege to work with him and we will wish him the best. With that said I’m happy to announce that Maj will be taking over the new role as Chef. I’m very excited for this as he has already brought a lot of great ideas and we will continue to be successful. Please make sure you stop by and see Eric before he leaves and wish him luck. His last day is November 7th.
