Our Hole-in-One story took another twist yesterday. Congratulations to Josh MacGowan who made his first ever hole-in-one from 306 yards on Hole #7. The word is that Josh was remarkably casual passing through the Pro Shop after the round. So much so that we had to call him this morning to confirm the social media reports. Google says the odds are 6 million to 1 on a par-4, with about 400 recorded globally each year.
And speaking of long shots, someone asked me a few weeks ago if I thought Cartwright Road would ever get paved properly. My answer wasn’t 6 million to one…but it was something similar. That said, the Member Relations Committee met on Tuesday as the work started, and would like to take full credit. Enjoy the ride.
Our Thanksgiving Supper Buffet will be Sunday, October 13th. Reserve a table by calling the office at 306-931-0022 or email [email protected]. Our regular (and final) Sunday Brunch is also available on the 13th for anyone looking to bring family out earlier in the day.
Reminder…the last day of golf, and the last day for restaurant service, is Sunday October 20th. Any remining F&B Minimum must be used by the 20th. And…Member Statements went out on Wednesday. Our fiscal year-end is October 31st, and all accounts should be current by the end of the month.
Christmas Party bookings are filling up, but if you’re looking for a weekday gathering, or anything in the third week of December, contact Kayla ([email protected]) for details.
Fun facts this week is in response to questions from the recent member relations meeting...looking for membership demographics. That includes all of our Full Play, Game-Pack, and Young Professionals. Among the Young Professionals, the average age is 30. The Game-Pack categories average 52, while the Full Play (and Lifetime) categories are a little higher at 62. Overall, considering all members from age 19 to 93...the average age of our Membership is 52 years.
Have a Great Weekend.
