I don t think I have ever been happier to see a hole in the ground as I was with the long-awaited $2 million pool facilities project getting underway. We had to jump through a multitude of hoops to get the municipal approvals needed (many months were unnecessarily wasted by an overly-bureaucratic and heavily regulated process), but we are now on track for a grand opening for Memorial Day Weekend, Along with our new cart and bag storage facility, we will be accepting a new golf cart fleet in September. Also in September, we will open our new Tillinghast-inspired reef hole - #13. This par-3, stretching to 183 yards, will be abeautiful addition to the course and provide an appealing view adjacent to our clubhouse. Our other course enhancements have been well received, and there are more to come. There are a lot of good golf and dining events left this fall, so we hope you take full advantage of the remainder of this great season. Sincerely, Chris Schiavone Managing Partner Take the #13 Challenge Take a Swing at #13 for $13,000! Saturday, September 13, 2014 at 5:13pm WEBSITE ADDRESS 2 The first 50 members to sign up for dinner get to swing for a hole-in-one worth $13,000 in Club Cash. That evening we will be featuring a special Tavern Menu in the Living Room. Please make your reservations with Amanda.

As the cooler temperatures arrive, I encourage everyone to swing a golf club as often as possible.

As we get older, we need to keep our golf muscles limber and ready to play.

Being able to hit the ground running in 2015 will be a huge advantage to your golf game. I will be traveling to Orlando for the PGA Merchandise Show in January.

I look forward to putting together a list of merchandise for the 2015 Golf Season.

These kids are the future of the game, and it is great to see so many of our members children getting involved in the game of golf.

I would also like to commend the membership for improving the overall pace of play throughout the year.

Looking forward to 2015, I hope to see a continuation of the increased participation in the Club events.

11 Shack newsletter Fall 2014_Layout 1 8/29/14 11:25 AM Page 11 Golf David Elliott Director of Golf It is hard to believe that fall is already upon us. The summers seem to go by faster and faster each year. I look forward to a busy fall. As the cooler temperatures arrive, I encourage everyone to swing a golf club as often as possible. I tell my students, even if you can t hit balls or play golf, take 40 or 50 swings a day in your basement, or out in the yard. As we get older, we need to keep our golf muscles limber and ready to play. There is nothing more disheartening than having to start from square one in the spring. Being able to hit the ground running in 2015 will be a huge advantage to your golf game. I will be traveling to Orlando for the PGA Merchandise Show in January. This is an exciting event where all of golf s latest and greatest clubs, balls, apparel, and gadgets will be on display. I look forward to putting together a list of merchandise for the 2015 Golf Season. During 2014, the Club saw a huge increase in participation of our Junior Golf Program. These kids are the future of the game, and it is great to see so many of our members children getting involved in the game of golf. Under the direction of Joe Bush and Jay Orsino, I am confident the Junior Golf Program will only continue to grow. I would also like to commend the membership for improving the overall pace of play throughout the year. All players like to complete their round at a good pace while still enjoying all the course has to offer. I thank you for your efforts. Looking forward to 2015, I hope to see a continuation of the increased participation in the Club events. We had some great tournaments this past season, and these events will grow to be bigger and better. As I have said all year, I welcome suggestions and comments to improve all aspects of our tournaments.
