Director of Membership, Sara - Becca ’ s Message

I am closing in on my second month as Director of Membership at Albany Country Club, and what a whirlwind it has been so far! I have enjoyed meeting so many of you during this time. Over the past two months, I have worked with Club leadership, staff, and members to coordinate member retention and

recruitment efforts. Projects like the Member Experience Survey are just the start as I learn more about the club and how best to be an ally and liaison for the members.

The Member Experience Survey that so many of you responded to was a major project to kick off with, and your responses have helped me learn more about you, the club, and how we can make ACC the best club that it can be. As we move forward, whenever we have projects or changes that address the concerns and desires brought up in the survey, we will let you know. Without your valuable input and insight, we can only do so much. If you missed the Annual Meeting and my report, you can access the summary of the survey results here.

As you may have heard, this winter we will be unveiling a new website. The new public side of the site will present prospective members, event hosts, and guests

with an informative and modern site that is easily navigated. For the members, the new website and member portal will provide an upgraded online experience. As part of the upgrade, we will be sending out requests for updated contact information. We will be sharing the family and contact information we have on file for you and asking you to make any changes or additions that we should know about, like contact information for spouses and dining allergies. With both our current website and with the new one, you are invited to log into your member profile anytime, update your information and even add a photo of yourself to your profile. We are excited about starting 2022 with a fresh look and comprehensive member directory for you! While I have been working on meeting as many new members as possible by attending social events, golf league end of season events, and many of the ladies ’ activities like bowling and Mah Jongg, I have also been working on creating a robust prospective member recruitment program. Our best source of new members is you – our current member! If there are friends or business associates that you would like to invite to become members of the club, let me know. I would be happy to contact them. I hope that if you have comments or suggestions for the club, you won ’ t wait until the next survey to share them with me. Your feedback is important to me, and as Rocky likes to say, we are always willing to give new ideas a try! Together we can make the club and membership experience one that is welcoming and lasts a lifetime.

Congratulations to our Tournament Winners Chili Buns Duncan Mackenzie, Lynn Momrow - Zielinski, Ed Brown and Lorraine D ’ Aleo Robert Trent Jones Cup Trey Sgroi and Joe Parrottino

I look forward to the holiday season and hope to see you at the Club soon!
