AdHoc Facility Master Improvement Planning Committee Social - Goal One: The Resort will encourage social interaction and friendships among owners by properly providing facilities to support programs that make the Resort a social hub of owner interaction and enjoyment. Recreation - Goal Two: The Resort will provide and promote an active recreation program for owners to make the Resort their recreational hub while residing in the desert. Facility Improvement - Goal Six: The Resort will develop a facility improvement master plan and a recommended prioritization for implementation to provide facilities which achieve the Resort’s Mission. The above statements are taken from the refresher strategic plan your board of directors is developing with the assistance of the McMahon Group. Our clubhouses are two of our most visible symbols of our resort. The board believes our clubhouses must offer something to all our members and user groups, encourage member socialization, with spaces and services that keep pace with the expectations of our members. We want to create clubhouses that our members want to frequent and feel welcome. And while respecting the history and traditions we also must develop new and modern amenities that will attract new members. The Adhoc Facility Master Improvement Planning Committee has met five times, working with the McMahon group on brainstorming and developing/refining various ideas and options for both the La Palma and El Saguaro clubhouses. We are now to the point where the committee is working on prioritizing and grouping the various projects into proposals, in preparation to make a presentation to the board in late April, or early May. The board of directors will consider the committee’s presentation and proposals. If accepted the next step will be for the committee to continue working with the McMahon Group over the summer, to develop a presentation, complete with drawings and artist renderings, for presentation and consideration of all association members when we return to the resort next November. I would like to thank the committee members – Evon Haarklau, Kathy McCune, Maryellen Muir, Shauna Riely, John Boudin, Bob Craven, Mike Curley, Allen Gayken, Bob Livingston and Greg Farmer for their commitment to this process, and their ideas and thoughts, as we move forward in the development and implementation of a Strategic Plan, a plan that will keep the resort ‘standing in good stead’ in the years to come.
