With 2019 coming to a close, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for a wonderful year of support. This year we welcomed 71 new members to the Loch Lloyd family, due in large part to our members being steadfast ambassadors of the Club. I am thankful for our supportive ownership group and for the Club’s passionate associates who work tirelessly (especially throughout the holidays) to enhance your personal Club experience.
CHRIS BREMS PRESIDENT
As it continues to get dark earlier and the temperatures dip, we hope you’ll stop by the Club for a cozy dinner or warm drink to escape any “cabin fever” you might be experiencing!
On behalf of our entire team, we wish you and your family a healthy and happy holiday season!
Chris Brems Club President

With The Gobbler behind us, the 2019 season has officially come to an end. Thank you to all who participated in this year’s events and congratulations to all of the lucky and skilled competitors who took home victories. Our team is working on the 2020 event calendar and we are excited about the great variety of events for you to enjoy next season.
SEAN HANNA DIRECTOR OF GOLF seanh@lochlloyd.com
With winter weather now here, I would like to remind you there are two holes cut on each green, starting December 1st. The Golf Course Maintenance team cuts two holes to help spread out traffic on the greens. We ask that when you are playing, remove the flagstick and place it in the opposite cup when you have finished putting out. Basically, you are making the group behind you play to a different hole location. Tee times will now begin at 10a each day. These starting tee times will remain in effect until April. Please check ForeTees for daily updates on the weather forecast to be advised of any potential frost delays or inclement weather. In preparation for colder weather, the ice/water machines have been removed from the comfort station and outside the Golf Shop until next spring. This is done annually to prevent the water lines in the machines from freezing. Be sure to join us on Wednesday, December 4th for our annual Member Appreciation Day and Sale in the Golf Shop. Details for this event may be found on the next page.

Dear Members,
JEFF STEEN, CGCS DIRECTOR OF GOLF COURSE MAINTENANCE jeffs@lochlloyd.com
It’s that time of year where the Golf Course Maintenance team is busy behind the scenes, starting many projects that get deferred until the leaves fall and the temperatures drop. With the first snowfall and cold temperatures as low as 0 degrees coming early again (as shown in the photo below), we were forced to close the course for several days during the week of November 11th and our team has been busy with clean-up and detail work ever since! It’s also that time of year when we blow out the irrigation system to help protect from unnecessary winter damage. The cold-weather project list is long and, as I have discussed in previous communication pieces, here are just a few of the projects we plan to accomplish this winter, as weather permits:
Stairs at the ladies’ tee on hole #18 Pathway from 2 tees to 2 green/3tees Extensive tree work as required Detail work along creeks and ponds Maintenance shop repairs Prepping equipment for the 2020 season New drainage installation (end of fairway on hole #3)
We were very pleased with the maintenance standards of the golf course as we entered the winter months as all fall applications went well and the course conditioning exceeded our expectations. On behalf of the entire Golf Course Maintenance team, I want to wish everyone a joyous and happy holiday season. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, comments or concerns. Jeff Steen, CGCS Director of Golf Course Maintenance

RUTH NEWBY PRESIDENT — LOCH LLOYD LADIES GOLF ASSOCIATION
We officially ended the season on October 9th with yet another golf rainout! Although we were unable to play one last round, we were not discouraged. We gathered that evening for a final awards presentation and a fabulous dinner. Laurie Lind and Terri Thomas welcomed us with wonderful decorations, prizes and tee gifts. I wish to thank all of you who helped make a positive impact on our golf association this year, especially the 2019 LLLGA Officers and Committee Chairs. We are looking forward to next season! I would like to announce our new 2020 LLLGA Officers: Ruth Newby, President; Terri Thomas, Vice President; Helen Scott, Secretary; and Patty Merlie, Treasurer. The entire 2020 Golf Committee lineup is listed on the right. We have already made note of several good ideas received from some of you so that we may make our 2020 golf experience even better! See you in the spring! Ruth

HOURS OF OPERATION: As a reminder, the Fitness Center will follow the Belton School District closure policy for inclement weather. If the Belton School District does not have school, the Fitness Center will not have classes on that day.

Open daily 5a to 10p with Key Fob access
Although cold weather may cause you to want to curl up and hibernate for the next few months, I urge you to keep moving. Research shows that exercise can help keep away those winter blues and help improve your mood by releasing serotonin and dopamine … the “feelgood” endorphins. Consistent exercise (whether it’s a brisk walk around the neighborhood or a class at the Fitness Center) boosts your immune system, gives you more energy and helps you sleep better, too! Happy Holidays! Lance Darling Fitness Center Director
