THE MAD POST

Submitted by Gary Ward, General Manager & C.O.O.
 

Despite the below average weather for most of the month of May, we did have a strong finish and our round count for the month was slightly higher than in May of 2022, although we did open a couple days earlier this year. Sales in all areas exceeded our monthly targets in May, which is always nice to see, thank you for your continued support.

Golf and Clubhouse Communication Sessions

As indicated at the Town Hall meeting this spring, we plan to host additional member information sessions this summer to review the safety proposals for #12 and #18 and clubhouse options under consideration.

Details on dates and formats will be forthcoming over the coming weeks. In the meantime, the posters displayed at the Town Hall meeting have been hung in the lower-level hallway for your review. Please forward any questions or comments you might have to me and be sure to attend the information sessions.

Next Saturday, June 10th from 11:00am - 2:00pm, the pro shop will be hosting a Trade in Day. This is a great opportunity to clear out all the old clubs in your garage collecting dust and trade in for credit in the pro shop. If you are curious about what your clubs might be worth, you can visit www.sweetspotgolf.ca. 

In advance of the Trade in Day, the pro shop is running an auction to try and sell off any of the previous year's demos. The demo auction is live and will close on Friday, June 9th at 6:00pm. This is the same auction site that the club used to sell off the old patio furniture. To visit the auction site and bid on clubs, please click on the link below. Please note, these are still demo clubs, so you are welcome to try them out before placing a bid. If you are the winning bidder on a club, you will be notified by the pro shop. Happy bidding!

Today is Tuesday June 6:
Game: Fairways and Greens: Team members will share the job of recording the team’s Gross scores on the paper score card and in the Golf Genius app.

The paper score card will have a special section to record  your “Fairway and Greens” score separately.  If you hit the fairway you get 5 points but you must subtract one point per putt for that hole.  If you don’t hit the fairway, you get a zero for that hole.

Please note: If you wish to play from any other tees other than the red tees, including a hybrid combination, please let the pro shop know in advance.
Clinic: Chipping (Bump and Run) – meet at the practice green.
