THE
PRESIDENT'S NOTE

Dear Club Owners, As another summer winds down, we look forward to another successful season. Over the summer, things have been busy here at CWGCC. Committees have been holding monthly meetings, the clubhouse has been buzzing, and the staff has been busy! Thank you for your participation in our Communications Survey. Your feedback is essential as we work to improve and enhance communication at Cypress Woods Golf and Country Club. We received a great response so far, which is a testament to your commitment to making our Club the best it can be. The survey will be open until September 10. If you have yet to receive the survey email or need any assistance, please contact Nicolette at the main office. Once the survey ends, the Board will collect and analyze the data, and then share the results with the owners at a future meeting. The Board will use the data to identify areas where we can improve communication with you. We will be working to implement your suggestions in the coming months. The Finance Committee recommend their final 2024 budget to the Board at a Budget Workshop in September. The Board welcomes all owners to attend the workshop to learn how the Finance Committee created the budget and to ask questions of the Finance Committee. The Board then takes a month to review the budget before approving it at the October Board Meeting, in compliance with our governing documents. Enjoy the last days of summer!
Don Simard,
Board President, Cypress Woods Golf and Country Club

MESSAGE FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER Dear Cypress Woods Members, We have remained busy at the Club this summer with both golf and dining revenues exceeding budget. Much of the revenue is due to the five 8:30 shotgun starts per week on the golf course, and also the tremendous support from our year round members in our dining facilities. We have had many positive comments on our staff and facilities from reciprocal golfers visiting our club, and I know our members have certainly enjoyed their time at the many clubs on our reciprocal list this summer. We continue our summer projects with the goal of completing all tasks before the returning stampede of members in early October. We are refreshing the plantings at the front of the clubhouse, repairing root damage in the parking lot, recoating the black top, painting new parking lines, painting the interior of the fitness center, and working our way through an ongoing list of minor repairs throughout the property. The golf course maintenance team will compete the final aerification this month in what has been the hottest summer that I can remember in my 24 years in SW Florida. They certainly have the most difficult job during the summer, but we have managed to retain our fantastic staff and have even added a few great staff members to our maintenance team. This month the Finance Committee will be presenting the budget for 2024 to the Board for their consideration. We will host a budget workshop in the Dining Room on September 14th at 2 p.m. and all members are welcome to attend either online or in person. This is a great opportunity for members to view all the work the Finance Committee have completed over the summer months, and also give members a much better understanding of the budgeting process. We hope you can join us. See you at the Club soon!
