WELCOME
Dear Members,
GENERAL MANAGER MESSAGE
June has arrived flowers in full bloom around the Clubhouse, the splash of kids playing at the pool, and the crisp ping of practice balls echoing across the range. It’s a time of energy, beauty, and possibility.
June is a month where the Club feels more alive than ever Families are gathering, friendships are rekindling, and new memories are being made daily from early tee times and afternoon swims to dinners on the patio We’re especially excited to welcome several new members who have recently joined the CCN family and those that have been away for the winter too
Just as nature is in full growth mode, so are we June is a month of momentum Whether it's through continuous improvements to our golf course and facilities, new summer menus in the restaurant, or upcoming events that promise fun for all ages, we ’ re focused on growing something truly special together
Thank you for being part of the journey Let’s make this a summer to remember
Warm Regards,
Rob Bartley General Manager

LADIESGOLFASSOCIATION
FROM YOUR LGA
Cynthia Pratt, LGA Chair
May showers bring June flowers, right???? May was a bit chilly and rainy overall but we still managed to get our season started with our Opening Day on May 8th. The Derby format once again proved to be a nail biter as Shankster finished first with a photo finish tie between Chili Dip and Divot Diva Birdie Queen and Loose Impediment rounded out the field. And just like that, we are off and running!!!!
Our next event is our first Tuesday Mixer, June 3rd at 5pm As always, we will have a fun, team format so for those new LGA Members, THIS IS THE EVENT FOR YOU! The Pro Shop will be sending out a Golf Genius link to sign up If you are having difficulty with navigating the app, I encourage you to swing by and have Nick or Matt walk you through how to use it!
Bring your Putts, Pearls and Polka Dots AND your friends out for only 18-hole Guest Day at 8:30am on Thursday, June 19th! This is a 4-lady team event so as long as you have four ladies, you have a team! You can play with 3 other Members, bring up to 3 guests, grab a guest and another Member and her guest.....however you want to throw it together, the more, the merrier! The Pro Shop is really good at helping you get your team together if you need to assemble that perfect team, so sign up even if you don't have four!!!!
Looking ahead to July, we have a Tuesday Mixer at 5pm on July 1st and our Member/Member on Friday, July 25th and Saturday, July 26th Until then, keep playing and turn in those scorecards!
