GOLF

Dear Members,

On Thursday, November 12, we will be conducting a Callaway fitting day. The vendor has asked that anyone interested in trying Callaway equipment should make an appointment through the Golf Pro Shop, as this will ensure a controlled environment of proper social distancing and sanitization practices. Lastly, on Thursday, November 19, we will be hosting a Lady Member Staff event. This is a make-your- own-foursome event and the professionals will be blind draw. This event is open to all lady members of the Club, and we strongly encourage them to participate. Hopefully you can join us for these exciting events, and as always, my door is open for suggestions and comments.

Welcome back! What a great time of the year this is; the weather hopefully will be turning a little cooler soon and many of your fellow members and friends have returned for the season. November is also the month in which we really kick off the season with many opening events. Although everything is different due to Covid-19, we are going to do our best to deliver as normal of an experience as we possibly can. On Tuesday, November 3, the Frenchman’s Creek Ladies Golf Association will host their opening golf event. It will be a nine-hole event, in an A, B, C, D format. It will be morning tee times, followed by a premade salad menu, which can be enjoyed at the Bag Drop Café, Tennis Café, Sports Bar, Pool Café or take out. Membership in the FCLGA is required to participate, so if you haven’t already joined, the application to join can be obtained in the Golf Pro Shop. On November 4, the Club will be hosting the Men’s Opening Day golf event. This is an A, B, C, D event with pairings made by the Golf Pro Shop, with a member of the professional team or outside golf operations team drawn blind to play as your captain. This event is open to all male members of the Club and will have both 18-hole and 9-hole divisions. Upon the conclusion of play, lunch will be served at the Bag Drop café, Tennis Café, Sports Bar, Pool Café or take out. The first Wine, Nine and Dine of the season will be held on November 6. This is a make-your-own- foursome event, and the format is scramble. Dinner options will be available following play. On Wednesday, November 11, we will be holding our 3rd annual Veteran’s day golf event. We have an 18-hole and 9-hole division. One hundred percent of the $100 entry fee will be donated to Veteran Suicide Prevention, and checks should be made out to the West Palm Beach VA.

Health and Happiness.
