FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER

admin — Mon, 31 Jan 2011 06:00:52 +0000

Greetings,

In our city we are fortunate to be having a wonderfully mild winter. We hope that you are taking advantage of the outdoor activities as well as the many other amenities we have to offer at your Club.

In February, we have Valentine’s Dinner on Friday, February 10th and the start of carnival season. The information is listed throughout the newsletter. Please join us!

My team and I are working hard on our 2012 Goals. Expect to see a lot of activity on the grounds as we prepare for the warmer months, which include spring plantings, outdoor painting, preparation of the pool, and other general “spring cleaning and repairs”.

In our efforts to increase customer service and member satisfaction, we are reopening the turnstand on March 2nd. It will be open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays with cold sandwiches, hot dogs with chili, beer, wine, and a variety of snacks and drinks available. We look forward to returning this service to our members.

As always, my team and I are working hard to assure a wonderful experience at your Club. We appreciate your kind comments and suggestions. Please continue to patronize your club.

If you haven’t yet please make sure to like us on Facebook.
Thank you.

Gary Braun
General Manager

TIP OF THE MONTH: SWING EASIER

admin — Mon, 31 Jan 2011 06:00:35 +0000

As you already know, it’s always windy here at English Turn. Here is a tip to help you play better in the wind. Next time you are playing a shot into the wind, instead of swinging harder (which actually makes the ball go higher because it creates more spin), take more club and swing with an abbreviated follow through about shoulder high. This will help you not hit it so high and create so much spin. This should help you become a better player in the wind.
