Message from the Manager

The days are getting cooler and shorter and the time draws nearer when we begrudgingly put our clubs into storage until next season, or atleast until that mid-winter trip south.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of our members for supporting our tournaments and making this golf season a tremendous success, despite Mother Nature's periodic efforts to discourage us. I'd like to remind everyone that lockers are to be emptied out by October 15th. Thanks for your cooperation with this.

Among all of the news featured in this month's newsletter, I'd like to draw your attention to a couple specific items:

1. We have a 2009 membership promo on for new members. Read and then click on brown banner above for details.

2. We now carry Sky Caddies in the Pro Shop. Read below for details.

3. We are having our first annual "Fall for Golf" photo contest. Submit your 2008 photo of the course's fall colour for a chance to win. See below for more information.

Enjoy the rest of the season!

Sincerely,

Tim Ertel, Manager

Course Update from Fred

Well, another golf season is slowly coming to an end. Hopefully there will be some more nice golf weather left to get those last rounds in.

Soon we will be putting the golf course to bed for the winter. This includes fall blowout of the irrigation system, dormant fertilizer applications and snow mould protection. We also hope to get the tree spade back for one more day.

Again thanks for another of great summer of golf.

See you next season,

Fred Schmoelzl, Golf Course Superintendent

From the Ladies' Executive

The season is already over and hardly feels like it has begun. It has been a great year for golf even though we had more rain than we would have liked. A great time was had by all at the ladies closing tournament. Congratulations to all of those who participated.

We had 27 ladies play in the Captain�s cup. The winner is Theresa Corman and the consolation winner is Judy Dejong. I�m sure that everyone had a great time and hope that more will sign up next year.

The perch dinner was a success. Thanks to the generosity of Bob Bogdon and Scotiabank for the donation of the perch we were able to donate $276 to the Junior division.

As you all know by now I am stepping down as golf captain. My replacement is Mary Louise LaBerge. Remaining on for next year is Heather Purdy as Treasurer and Val Chessell as secretary.

The general meeting is set for April 28th, 2009 at 7 p.m. This will be subject to change if any unforeseeable circumstances arise.

Have a great fall and winter,
Theresa Corman

MG&CC now Sky Caddie equipped!

The Sky Caddie GPS is now available for sale in the Pro Shop. Our course has been mapped for the Sky Caddie GPS and we currently stock the SG2.5 (left image) and the SG5 (right image) hand-held units at prices lower than Golf Town.

The Sky Caddie makes a great gift for that hard-to-shop-for golfer on your list. Makes an even better gift for yourself! Contact Tim to arrange to use our demo unit.

To learn more about either model offered at our club, click on the appropriate image.
