Maintenance Facility

Maintaining our course at a Top 100 level is a significant part of upholding our mission, and commensurate with this commitment, is one of our largest budget line items as a club.

Our golf course maintenance personnel, equipment and supplies all play critical roles in providing the best possible daily conditions and playability. Recruiting and retaining the most talented personnel, and equipping them to succeed, is vital.

Our existing golf course maintenance building houses our equipment fleet as well as offices and a breakroom that accommodates only a handful of employees at a time.

‹ The current golf course maintenance building is a metal shell structure.

‹ Additional space is required to house our golf maintenance equipment.

‹ The employee breakroom is so small that most employees eat their lunches sitting on their equipment.

Our plan is to expand the existing metal structure and to construct a simple building adjacent to the existing golf course maintenance building to accommodate office space, a modest number of lockers and a larger breakroom to achieve the following goals:

‹ Protection of our golf equipment investment by housing all within a covered building away from the Dallas temperature variations.

‹ Provide a safer, more appealing space for our golf course maintenance team to take a break, enjoy lunch and store their belongings in a secure manner.

Cost Estimates, Funding & Construction Schedule

Please make sure to attend the Town Hall Meeting on May 13, 2023 at 3:30 CT in the clubhouse and online (a link will be provided prior to the meeting). At the meeting, among other matters, we will review the anticipated costs associated with the work, the Club’s plan to pay for the work and implications to members. We will also review the proposed construction schedule which, as has been shared previously, targets beginning June 2024 and completion in June 2025.

Thank You

This plan would not be possible without the dedication, determination and drive of the Dallas National management team and those who choose to volunteer their time to serve our Club. We extend our sincere gratitude to the members listed below for their efforts.

What began nearly two years ago as a decision to upgrade our bunkers has become an opportunity to undertake an investment plan to ensure we maintain our reputation as an elite golf club, and more importantly, to elevate your playing experience.

We hope you will join us in our enthusiasm and support to bring this plan to fruition.

Sincerely,

Board of Directors of Dallas National Golf Club
