Here is a letter from the mother of the bride who just recently had their wedding AND reception here: Jeff, My husband and I want you to now how much we appreciate the courteous treatment we recently received while renting the clubhouse for our daughter s wedding and reception. The staff and you were so gracious to meet our every need, and we found the food and drinks provided during the reception were outstanding. The reception area and wedding room were clean and ready for our decorating which made the whole event really fun for our family and friends. The Maumelle Country is definitely a bargain for anyone needing to host a large party or event. Thanks again for everything, and I am including a picture of the bride and groom and some wildlife encountered along the path where they were taking pictures.

Join us for a weekend of serious golf and serious fun! Go to www.maumellecc.com/golf.asp for Registration Information. T U R F TA L K I once again would like to thank the MGA for sponsoring the projects on Nine and Ten. The drainage is complete and working great on 10! We have laid the sod and installed the Turf Protector on the entrance/exit on 9 fairway. This product will allow the turf to grow through the mesh and then will distribute the weight of carts to protect the turf from wear damage and compaction. Although I have never used this product I have confidence that it will work. The only draw back I see is playability. We will not be able to play off of the mesh, it will be permanently marked GUR. The course is coming through spring looking pretty good. Now we are moving into tournament season, and mowing season. This means we are busy! It is a great time of year. During the spring rain showers and thunderstorms are fairly common. Sometimes after these rains we have to ask the membership to play Cart Path Only, when this is the case please remain on the pavement. Driving in the rough does just as much or more damage as driving in the fairways. So please remember to stay Cart Path Only when we post the signs. Please remember to check my blog site for course updates! www.mccturfcare.blogspot.com Thank you and have a great round! Jason Baker Golf Course Superintendent
