(President's Message continued)
going up to the green should serve to reduce the risk of theft. It is located further from Grand Lakes Avenue where most golfers traditionally have parked, leaving a smaller window of time for any wrong doing to occur. Management is currently working on other steps to reduce the chance of theft around the
Oaks 6 green. The Pro Shop will keep the membership apprised of any new developments going forward. Please report any suspicious activity to the Pro Shop immediately. The Pro Shop continues to experience an unacceptable number of abandoned tee times. Abandoned tee times occur when a member makes a tee time, and then subsequently fails to call in to let the Pro Shop know that they won’t be able to make it (no call, no show). Last Saturday over ten members abandoned tee times that were scheduled before 12 noon. The negative effects of not notifying the Pro Shop include a potential loss of cart revenue, a potential loss of guest fees, and a potential loss of food and beverage revenues. Not calling in can also foreclose other members from obtaining tee times, arguably the worst effect of tee time abandonment. After discussing this continuing problem with manage- ment and the Board, it has been determined that a financial penalty will be instituted to handle “no call, no show” situations: First Infraction: $20 Fine Additional Infractions: $40 Fine, per occurrence The Board may further refine these sanctions for incorporation into the update on the Club’s Rules and Regulations later in the year. For now, the above sancti- ons will begin being applied for tee times booked starting Friday, November 3rd . No one in the Pro Shop wants to assess monetary sanctions; please show respect to fellow Club members and the Pro Shop by remembering to call in if you are not going to utilize a reserved tee time. Management thanks you ahead of time for your due diligence. The Holiday Season is officially kicking off and that means there are many ways to enjoy the Club in November and December. In addition to our traditional Thanksgiving Dinner on November 23rd, you will find information in this month’s Seven Oaks Scene on all the Club’s festivities through the end of 2023. We hope that you will join in the fun! I look forward to seeing everyone as we move into the Holidays.
