Members Agree… Seafood Bash A Huge Success!
Hopefully by the time you read this the monsoon season will be over. The golf course has greened up beautifully and Shawn has it in excellent condition -despite the weather. The first aerification for the year has been completed and the greens are recovering quickly.
Pool Opens May 23rd
The pool opens on Saturday, May 23rd and we have made some changes this year. Again, Alice will be handling the pool staff. Please see her article about the pool for details.
Help Us Build Canebrake's Membership
As we continue to grow and enlist new residents and members, we always appreciate your referrals. We have two opportunities this month for you to introduce some new friends to Canebrake. On Thursday, May 21st Chef Ron is going to wow us with his fabulous seafood buffet. Should you have someone you feel is a good prospect, please call Alice at 256.232.2412, Ext 5 so she can make the necessary arrangements to have them come as our guests.
On Tuesday, May 29th, Josh is holding a one day member /guest event. This is another chance to bring out a prospect to enjoy Canebrake for the day. Please call Alice at 256.232.2412, Ext 5 or Email Her to make the hosting arrangements for both of these events.
Please check the calendar under club news for a complete list of May activities at Canebrake. We have some charity golf tournaments coming soon. The Athens State Tournament is on Thursday, May 14. Canebrake members are given a “special deal” on the entry fee. Ask me or Josh for details.
Another exciting event is the MGA Member/Member Tournament on May 16 & 17. If you have not yet signed up, call the golf shop and get in on the fun. MGA President Ray Neese and the tournament committee have worked to make this a good event. Full Details.
Nora Williams has been giving a yoga class twice a week in the Tennis Building. If you would like to improve your strength and flexibility, Email Alice and she will put you in touch with Nora. She has had a few requests for water aerobics. If this is of interest to you, please let us know.
We are glad the warm weather is coming in and activity at the club is increasing. I hope to see you around the club.
I'll See You 'Round the Club,
Jack Sauers
