Muni Minute

Hello Everyone

I hope everyone enjoyed their long weekend and has been able to keep up to their lawns and the grass that doesn’t want to stop growing. We have been working non stop to try and catch up to our rough and this week I think we have finally been able to catch up… With the long weekend now over and the season well on it’s way there are just a few things starting at the course that I thought I would send out reminders for.

Our Huron-Perth Jr. League Golf Team Tryouts will begin Monday June 11th from 4:30pm till 6:30pm, and is open for any Jr. members boy or girl, age 11 to 16 who wish to try out and make our team that travels to 5 other courses for 9 hole events. It is a great introduction to Tournament golf, and team members receive matching uniforms and weekly coaching.

Our Driving range will also soon be going under some more construction as the lawn bowling green will start to be built at the beginning of next week. I apologize for any inconvenience this brings, but in the end we will have a much better practice facility with a new tee elevated tee deck with grass and matted hitting areas. For the time being well the cleared out back section grows in we will be moving to irons only, I hope this doesn’t last long though and that we are back to hitting the big sticks as fast as possible.

Lastly our Sr. Games have now began and will take place every Thursday morning at 9am, A schedule can be found at the Pro shop counter with the weekly games and a sign up sheet on the information board.

Dates to Remember

Hello Everyone

This week saw the true start to the golf season, with the weather finally cooperating we were able to get things cut, get carts out on the course and also open up the Driving range. It also was the start of our Men’s and Ladies Leagues and the support was unreal, both nights the parking lot was packed with Tuesday having over 50 ladies play and our Wednesday Men’s league having 120 players join this season. (for anyone looking to find the men’s day stats or the weekly blog, it can be found at www.golfscoring.net/stratfordmuni or on the website under the Leagues header and Men’s League with a clickable link at bottom of page)

Our Members Opening Scramble is this Saturday at 11am with a Lasagna and Caesar salad meal to follow. Thank you to everyone who has signed up and paid by the Wednesday deadline. We have a good number of members signed up to enjoy the day, and we are hoping for nothing but warm sunny skies. If Saturday for some reason happens to be bad weather and we can’t play, (which is highly unlikely) we will still be holding the meal at 3:30pm and encourage you to still come out socialize and enjoy the clubhouse.

Dates to Remembers:

 

Saturday May 12th- 11am- Members Club opening scramble

Saturday May 26th- 11am- Army Navy Opening (sign up at Army Navy)

Till next time.

Hello Everyone

Hopefully this Monday starts the stretch of some nice weather!!. The staff is out today trying to get everything cleaned up after the massive storm on Friday and luckily the course sustained very little damage. We have not been very lucky in the rain department though and it has forced us to keep carts off the course for most of the year and the range closed, I apologize to anyone this has affected or kept off the course. Today we are finally letting the carts back out but we have mark off wet areas and tried to direct carts the best we can, please respect these signs as carts can do a lot of damage to the soft turf. We also finally were able to also pull out the range net and try to cut the extremely long grass but it still remains very wet, I am praying and hoping that this dries a lot today and we can have people out hitting balls Tuesday!!

Last night we saw our Men’s League Captains pick the teams for our Wednesday night league. Thank you to all the Captains for coming out!! I will be putting the teams up today via the golfscoring.net website with the league schedule, I will also post a team list in the clubhouse on the info board. You can find this info by going to our website and clicking the link under the men’s league header or by going to www.golfscoring.net/stratfordmuni.

Lastly our Members Opening Scramble is coming up this Saturday, sign up deadline is Wednesday and the sheet can be found at the pro shop counter. It is a fun day of golf starting at 11am followed by a Lasagna, Caesar Salad meal. Cost $15

Hope to see lots of members out.

Muni Minute / Men’s Night

Hello Everyone

Just a quick remark about Men’s night, our league is about to start next Wednesday May 9th. I have had 125 guys say or have one of their group members say that they will be playing in the league this season but have only had 95 actually come in and pay. If you are one of the remaining 30 could you please make an effort to contact me so I know your a firm yes and we can get our list together for our Sunday night draft. Also we are still looking for about 4 captains to help pick the teams. Captains responsibilities are very minimal as all it requires is to have a fun night this Sunday at 6:30pm selecting players to a team, and giving your team a name. Lastly if you are new to the league I do require some sort of estimate on what your handicap would be so we can get you into the right flight faster. I have caught a few of you but if I haven’t a quick email with an average score would be great.

Also don’t forget our Members Opening is also coming up very quickly, registration deadline is Wednesday May 9th for the Saturday May 12th event. The sign up sheet can be found at the pro shop counter and I hope to see lots of our members out for a fun day of golf.
