P RESIDENT ’ S M ESSAGE

First and foremost, I am honored to take on this role of President of the club. I hope to live up to the successes of past presidents. Second, please join me in thanking Dave Suozzo for a job well done during his term as president. Spring is upon us and the club will soon be buzzing with activity. Rocky had a busy offseason with many interior projects to keep our club in premium condition. I hope everyone has had an opportunity to experience the skills of our new chef, Daniel Wiginton. We have received many tremendous reviews about his work so if you haven’t experienced it yet, I encourage you to get out to the club and try his food.

In early March the board met for our annual retreat in preparation for the new year. Our objective was to leave the retreat with specific goals for the coming year. We asked each committee chairperson to make goals for their respective committees. From those goals we selected overall/priority goals for the club. Here are the goals we established for 2026 in no particular order. • Meet or exceed our financial budget plan • Work to develop a corporate membership program. Also, pursue corporate events. • Designate a member retention designee on the membership committee to ensure we are meeting the current memberships expectations. • Improve and promote Friday Night Events. Also make them fun and inclusive for all.

• Work to increase women’s informal play. • Improve the driving range experience • Improve dining operations • Focus on family events with activities that encourage teen inclusion

While these were the goals that the board selected as priorities, each committee has other goals that they will be working on throughout the year.

Membership remains strong with total membership, as of early March, at 369 (276 golf members). That is 13 more than in the same period last year.

As we head into the new season, I would like to highlight that our club is not only the premier place for golf, tennis and family activity, we also provide other benefits to members outside of the club. One of those benefits is reciprocity at other golf courses around the state. These are true reciprocals in that all you typically have to pay for is your cart. One such place where I have played is Irondequoit Country Club in Rochester. A beautiful and challenging golf course which backs up to Oak Hill. In the coming weeks I will look to have a list published of all these outside benefits that are afforded to our membership.

Thank you to this year ’ s new member sponsors!

I welcome your thoughts - please feel free to reach out with any questions, compliments, or concerns at president@albanycc.cc

KEVIN VAN VALKENBURG IN PRAISE OF THE GOLF BUDDY Sometimes you need one, sometimes you need to be one A couple weeks ago, a friend reached out to me with a simple request: Any chance you can play golf somewhere on Sunday? He didn’t care about the venue, or the time, or even the cost. He didn’t need to play a match, and didn't even really want to keep score. He just needed a mental health day. Things had been so stressful at work of late, he told me, that his nerves were frayed. He needed to breathe in some clean October air, hit a few crisp iron shots, share a few dumb jokes, and forget about life for a while.

If you’re familiar with adult male friendships, you know this is the equivalent of a ship at sea sending up a distress signal. The vessel might not be sinking, per se, but it might need to be guided back to friendly waters by another ship. It takes courage to send up that kind of flare, and I think it’s essential to answer the call when you see one.

So a few words, if you allow me, in praise of the Golf Buddy.

I have been the Golf Buddy at various points in my life, and last month was one of those times. My friend Steve and I ended up teeing it up at Eisenhower Preserve, a municipal course near Annapolis, Maryland, that costs around $60. Andrew Green, who has his fingerprints on some of the best courses in the United States, redid the green complexes several years ago, and one of the course’s unique features is that he took away all the bunkers. If you want interesting architecture at a minimal cost, Eisenhower is one of the best values in the Mid-Atlantic. But golf architecture doesn’t really matter, I’ve learned, when you’re called upon to play the role of the Golf Buddy. It’s just a bonus. I have needed the Golf Buddy to come to my own rescue many times, and I am blessed to have quite a few at my disposal. Wealth is one way to measure success in life, but how extensive your rolodex of Golf Buddies is might be a more rewarding method of appraising exactly what kind of life you’re living. The Golf Buddy should be open to deep conversations — sympathetic concerns about marriage, finances, and parenting - but deep conversation is not a requirement. Sometimes, the best gift the Golf Buddy can provide is friendly-but-comfortable silence. There is more than one kind of therapy in this world. Sometimes, it’s helpful to pay someone who will force you to talk about your feelings. But other times, it is helpful to pay a golf course so you can walk (or ride around) with a Golf Buddy for four hours, each of you saying very little.

The Golf Buddy understands there are no easy answers to life’s complex questions. But hitting the ball, and walking after it with someone whose company you enjoy, can be as comforting as religion.

During COVID, the Golf Buddy was unexpectedly upgraded from the role of Outdoor Therapist to the role of Life Preserver, which is the real reason golf experienced a boom that has yet to fade. A golf course was not just a place to share a beer, or share a smoke, or share a laugh over the absurdity of pool noodles resting in the bottom of cups. It was an opportunity to hang on to the idea of community. One Golf Buddy and I played together for 40 consecutive Sundays that first year of the pandemic, on days when we couldn’t feel our hands and on days when it was so hot, we sweated through our hats. I don’t remember much of what we talked about. But I do remember we kept each other from going insane, one Sunday round at a time. During my recent round at Eisenhower, I opted against a sensible pitchout and instead attempted to hit a shot that threaded its way through a spiderweb of tree branches. My ball not only drilled the most sizable branch, it dropped straight down and then began trickling downhill along a cart path back toward the tee. For the length of a football field, it did not touch grass, and did not come to rest until it was 140 yards away from that villainous tree. My friend Steve doubled over in laughter and could not stop giggling for several minutes. It was the healthiest laugh he’d experienced, he confessed, in months.

Somewhere, right now, there is a Golf Buddy in your life who needs you.

They are trying to be the best version of themselves, but their burdens and anxieties are weighing them down. They might want to talk about them. They also might prefer to spend an afternoon getting teased about their terrible chipping, listening to music, and being briefly divorced from an addiction to their phone. You should reach out to them. You will figure out which direction to row as the round unfolds.

And someday, when the waves of your life are so big you can scarcely see over them, they will sense what needs to be done. They will meet you on the first tee and do what the Golf Buddy does best. Tow you back to shore.

ROB L EAGUE

Among the things to consider are:

On behalf of the 60+ members of the current ROB’s (Retired Ol’ Boys) I invite you to join our Thursday morning group. (You need not be retired, just 55 or older this year.) The purpose of your group is to enjoy our beautiful Club, enjoy each other’s company, have lunch together if time allows, and sprinkle in a little competition without going overboard. Special events throughout the year with the US Open, July 4th, and this year– Ryder Cup playing a part in our weekly events. We are a small enough Club that I’m certain you know someone or many who are current ROB’s. I encourage you to contact them with any questions you may have.

• We play Thursday mornings at 8:30 am • Weekly events are followed by lunch for those who can stay. Weekly fees are $5.00. • We have a Home in Home series against the ROB‘s from Wolferts Roost and Shaker Ridge. They play at our club, and we play at their club. These events are terrific, I promise! • Annual dues are $60, which pays for weekly prizes, steak bake and holiday party. Those that were ROBs last year will be automatically re- enrolled and billed in April. • You will all remember we will be playing from the ROBs tees which measures 5700 yards. You’re always free to play whatever tees you want, but we think at 5700 yards, it’s not only a good test but it’s a reasonable fun distance as well. • On those occasions when you can only play nine holes, please come out, we will accommodate you! Register online through ForeTees. Please reach out to any current member, or me if you have any questions.
