(President's Message continued) The Club is in excellent financial health going into the high member usage months of October, November and December. These months are also great historically for Banquets and other Holiday related events. The Board is monitoring a roughly 3.5 % or so reducti - on in the membership base over the past few months. We will know more in the coming months as to whether there is a trend developing, or not. I will keep the membership posted. On a very positive note, we received 11 new membership applications in the month of September. Additionally, booked events for the Banquet Room were outstanding in the month of September. It’s certainly nice to see everyone back at the Club after the summer months. I’d like to take just a minute to thank all of our great volunteers who have served and currently serve on our committees. They are critical to the Club’s functioning and provide the Board with information we use to make important decisions. This commitment is no small matter, as committee members serve two or three year terms, depending on the committee. If you know one of them, please thank them personally for their service. You may even want to consider one of the committee positions for yourself in the future. They are Golf and Greens, House and Social, Finance, Membership, and Courts/Fitness. Membership on these committees have rotation every February with some of the members terming out. As a challenge of sorts, I’d like to encourage our membership base to tell friends and/or business partners about all of the great attributes of our Club and the positive developments planned for the future. I was recently reminded of perhaps the greatest benefit to belonging to our Club by our Vice President: all of the enduring and incredible friends- hips that build as a result of being a member. With 27 holes, a great tennis community, and all our other amenities it’s easy to recommend our Club. We all know people who would add to our membership
community and make it even better than it is. Let’s utilize our “network effect” to reach out to people. I sincerely believe we offer one of the best values in the Country Club industry. We currently have 580 golf members and 323 social members, for a total of 903. Be the member to bring in number 904! As the Holidays grow nearer, the Club becomes active with an array of events for everyone. From wine dinners, Halloween festivities, Fitness, Tennis and Pickleball events and Golf Tournaments, the list is long! You will find information on many of our upcoming events and activities in this edition of the Seven Oaks Scene and on our mobile app. I look forward to seeing you at the Club soon. Please take a minute to enjoy our new American flag flying outside the golf pro shop. A group of our members donated their time and money to make the project come to fruition.
