2 President s Message The course is looking great and we had a good financial month in March, and April also looks good. Green fees and new members are the key to balancing our revenue and expenses, so please keep bringing guests and potential members to our beautiful course. We are almost ¼ of the way to our goal of 40 in 04, and our course can handle many more rounds, so please help us fill the need for new members. We had some excellent events in April and I would like to thank Cimarron and his staff for the excellent organization and presentation of the Wine Tasting and Easter Buffet. If you missed them, please keep your eye on the calendar for future events. Easter was well attended with almost 300 people served, thank you for supporting your club! May is shaping up to be another great month, but a busy one. To reduce conflicts, please make sure you check your calendar. We have many events and specifically the Maumelle Classic April 30-May 2, the Mothers Day Buffet May 9 th, and the Maumelle Four Ball Memorial Day weekend, May 28, 29, 30. The Four Ball dates are an experiment to free up Memorial Day, May 31 st for members to have the opportunity to enjoy the course who are not signed up for the Four ball. There will also be some other outside events in May, so please check the calendar to ensure there are no conflicts. In closing I would like to thank all of the staff for their hard work in maintaining the Club and getting the course in such excellent shape for the prime golfing weather. Even with all the rain the course has been very playable except for #12 (unless you re a duck). Twelve has been under water many times before and we expect it to recover as usual. Thanks again for supporting your club. Your President, Royce LoBianco EAT & WIN with ROYCE Those members dining in the Mixed Grill during the month of May will receive a ticket each time they dine at the Club. We will draw three names on Monday, May 31 st to see whom the lucky members will be to play with Club President, Royce LoBianco in the John Daly Tournament free of charge! This is a value of $1500 per person. Don t miss the chance to play for free, come eat at the Club!!!

5 Out on the Course with Terry March and April arrived warm and wet, as we began the golf season a little earlier than normal. Much project work has occurred the first four months of the year but due to the amount of rainfall some projects have been re-scheduled. The fairway verticut/ aerification and collar/approach aerification has been rescheduled for May 3 rd due to rain. Stump grinding along the river has been moved to May as well. Thanks for your patience during the driving range project. The right side of the range was not irrigated and the result was dirt. The addition of sprinklers on that side will 2408 yield good turf as well as less dust caused by traffic along the gravel road. Having the range closed during the middle of the day was necessary for the completion of the irrigation addition. New golf course supplies will be making their way to the course shortly. New sand bottles, bunker rakes, broken tee caddies, ball washers, sand buckets, flags, cups, and pins have been purchased. I would like to thank the MGA for their help in purchasing these supplies. Let s have a great golf season.

There will be a four man, two best balls (with handicap) and the President s Cup, which is the individual, low net score. After the round there will be drinks and hot dogs. This is generally a very popular event so sign up soon. Because of the MGA membership, we were able to provide Terry some funds, which he used for sand bottles etc., with the carts normally off the paths don t forget to get a sand bottle and use it. The course is looking great and we all need to work together to keep it that way. Again, if you are not an MGA Member, sign up and come out for golf, fellowship and a good time.
