It is hard to believe that we are in the middle of the Winter season at Private golf clubs in Scottsdale with the warm temperatures that we have seen recently and the coming warmer temperatures. As you can imagine this only helps increase the level of member participation in all areas of the Club. With the Waste Management Open here we are poised at yet another great month of member participation Private golf clubs in Scottsdale. It was wonderful to see many of you at the Club’s Annual meeting last month. For those of you who couldn’t be there, I’d like to share the results of our recent election and to welcome this year’s Board of Director for Private golf clubs in Scottsdale . We have three new directors joining the board this year: George Droll, David Goldberg and Rob Maruster who have all been elected to three-year terms. In addition, Alan Sears and John Roussel were elected to an additional two years on the Board. For the coming year, your Club President will be Alan Sears who will be entering his second and final year in this position. As Alan reviewed at the annual meeting, some of our main goals for 2020 are as follows:
• We must update our Scottsdale golf club Bylaws which have been amended several times but during the past months we have discovered we have several shortcomings with operations and serving you.
• Update our Master Plan for Improvement of Club Facilities – this will involve surveys and small group discussions – but we need to determine what is essential for our future and timing for the same. Examples would include the need to replace and update our now 22-year old irrigation system at Scottsdale golf club; during that closure improving the course and especially bunkers; men’s locker room; office space for our Team; as well as the proper amount of storage space among others.
• As we look at what we MUST do and what we would like to do as we look ahead, we want to develop a plan for the next 5-10 years for enhancing our Capital Reserve generation and to develop alternatives to large, periodic assessments as for Phase I and II. As I stated at the Annual Meeting, I truly believe that we are in a solid position with an experienced leadership team, a strong financial position and an engaged and supportive membership which will continue to generate a buzz in the market as we aim to achieve even higher levels in 2020 and beyond. From a rules standpoint, I want to once again remind everyone of the need to adhere to the dress code. With all of the member and guest usage of the Scottsdale private golf courses clubhouse these past few months, we have had a number of issues with people not adhering to the rules in place, namely with hats being worn into the Clubhouse in the evenings, shirts not being collared and torn/ripped jeans, none of which are allowed in the main Clubhouse. Please note that it is the responsibility of each member to communicate the dress code to their family and guests as we will be having the management team carefully monitor this moving forward. Thank you very much for your cooperation in this as it is important that all rules at the Club apply to all members. With all this being said, we look forward to a busy next few months and know that you will enjoy all that our team has planned during this time. The calendar is packed with a number of golf, tennis and social events for your enjoyment so please make it a point to be here as much as possible!
