It’s hard to believe that this is my 12th article of 2022. Each year goes by faster than the last. That said, what a phenomenal year! We knocked it out of the park this year. Let’s take a moment to look back, we had some amazing accomplishments. Some small, and some not so small but all had a positive impact on the overall operations at EACC. Let’s take a minute and review some of our “wins”:
- Construction of the new halfway house
- Dumpster corral reconstruction
- Driving range mats
- Music on the driving range
- Televisions in the bar
- New bunkers on the front 9
- New cart fleet
- Clubhouse remodeling
- Patio remodel and expansion
- Fire pit installation
- Practice facility yardage sign
- Scorecard, tee, pencil holder on 1st tee
These are just a few of the many highlights that I wanted to reflect upon. We had an awesome summer with fantastic weather, our round counts settled back to our comfort level. This is a perfect scenario in which our membership count is higher than ever and the access to the course had very little, if any congestion.
Our membership is sitting comfortably at 300 with a healthy waiting list. It is my forecast that we will begin the 2023 season with a full membership. We continue to recruit potential members to our roster, that said, if you have anyone that has expressed an interest, please have them email me at david.jones@eastauroracc.com.
Lastly, make sure to mark your calendar for the annual Christmas Sale in the golf shop. We have targeted Wednesday, December 14th as our sale day. The golf shop will be open from 12:00-6:00. Make sure you schedule some time to stop by and realize some incredible prices. Everything in stock will be 30%-70% off for this one day only.
I wish everyone a happy and healthy holiday season and look forward to another successful year!
