April Newsletter

Like many of you, we watched the Governor’s address where she reiterated the fact that golf courses should remain closed until April 30. We will continue to abide by this mandate.

Our staff are staying home, staying safe, and doing what they can at home to prepare for our upcoming season. Matt will send out weekly updates as needed regarding Pro Shop news and potential date changes.

We’re seeing great response to our online sign ups, which has been encouraging! If you have not signed up for league or need us to find you a partner, please reach out to Matt and Avery. We are VERY excited for the season to start and looking forward to seeing everyone up at the club in May.

Stay connected to fellow members and the club by following us on social! We are Facebook and Instagram.

Stay home and stay safe,

Jim Bultema
General Manager
