Dear Members,
Steve Shrawder Club President
American flags lining the Clubhouse drive make me proud to be a part of this Club and even more proud to be a citizen of this great country. The upcoming 4th of July holiday serves as a reminder that we all have much to be thankful for. I’m particularly grateful to the men and women who serve in the military to keep us safe and free. Whether you celebrate Independence Day at the Club or are off on a family vacation, I hope you have a safe, joyful and memorable time.
We have an exciting line-up of events planned during the first week of July and there is literally something for everyone: a Patriotic Parade, Street Fair, Family Dinner Buffet, 4th of July Shotgun, Parents’ Night Out, Pool Party, Live Music at First Fridays Happy Hour, free Drive-In Movie at the Range, Pickleball Junior Club Championship and, of course … a spectacular Fireworks Display. We hope to see you around the Club for these festivities and throughout the entire month of July!

Dear Members,
Spencer Roberts Director of Golf Course Maintenance
Happy Fourth of July! This 2019 season continues to bring numerous challenges to the Golf Course Maintenance team as we have experienced a record amount of rain during the first six months of the year. As of June 25th, we have received more than 35 inches of rain which is 18 inches above average. The team continues to stay positive as we take it one day at a time, trying to create the best possible playing conditions. The course continues to remain very healthy even after all the rain we have received. As the summer heat starts to settle in, we will alter some of our maintenance practices, especially to the greens, to make sure all the playing surfaces stay as healthy as possible. We have started to fix areas in the fairways that have been impacted by the wet first half of the year. We hope to have all of the Zoysia grass back to normal by the end of July. Have a safe and wonderful holiday! Please contact me if you have any questions. Sincerely, Spencer Roberts Director of Golf Course Maintenance spencer@fivestarlifestyles.com
