April 2019 Newsletter at The Country Club at Loch Lloyd

April 2019 Our busy grounds crew is preparing to plant flowers around the Clubhouse ‌ a sure sign that spring has officially arrived! Springtime is one of my favorite seasons, especially here at the Club. Not only do we see the trees and flowers blooming and the greens getting greener, but we also get to see more and more of you spending time at the Clubhouse and on the course.

We’re gearing up for a great season ahead and look forward to the Demo Days planned in April, the Highland Game on April 13th and some unique events planned by our Food & Beverage Team including a March Madness Watch Party on April 8th and The Prisoner Wine Dinner on April 10th. This month also brings our popular Easter Egg Hunt and Easter Brunch. See inside this newsletter for more information and please call the Clubhouse if you have any questions.

With guidance from the PGA of America, Loch Lloyd will participate in PGA Junior League Golf.

Like other recreational youth sports, participants wear numbered jerseys and play on a team with friends, while competing under the direction of the Loch Lloyd Golf Professionals, who will serve as Captains and Coaches. Teams compete in a popular two-person scramble format which reinforces the team concept and creates a nurturing environment for learning. Leagues are formed with surrounding clubs and games are played between the teams within the league. Practice sessions are scheduled weekly at a day and time to be determined.

Isn’t it great to finally see some sunshine, warmer temps and green popping up? I believe our winter “hibernation” may be over. Now it’s time to get outside and move … join an exercise class, play tennis, practice your golf swing and get ready for an active, healthy summer ahead. Our bodies may be sluggish to start and resistant to move but it’s mind over matter.

You can do it! If you need a boost to get started, check out any of the classes below or the programs on the next page to get you going toward a healthier you!

Ladies’ Self-Defense Training Program

Thursday, May 30th from 6p to 8p at the Clubhouse We’re proud to host the T.A.K.E. Self-Defense Training Program for any Loch Lloyd female member or resident, age 12+. The two-hour program provides handson self-defense training to include awareness education and application of the skills demonstrated and learned. The goal of the program is to build self-confidence and empower women. We encourage all Loch Lloyd ladies and their daughters or granddaughters to attend this important, perhaps life-saving, event. The fee is $25 per person (includes tax; billed to your account); non-members must pay prior to the program. Look for an email coming soon regarding registration for this event.

T.A.K.E. (The Ali Kemp Educational Foundation) Defense program was established in 2005 in honor of Ali Kemp, a 19-year-old Leawood woman who was murdered. The Kemp family created T.A.K.E Defense to carry on Ali’s legacy and ensure that what happened to her doesn’t happen to another. More than 68,000 girls and women have been trained with this self-defense training program. T.A.K.E. Defense carries its message and training across the United States each year to colleges and universities and has also been featured on America’s Most Wanted, the Discovery Channel, ABC’s “20/20” and the CBS Evening News, along with numerous local and regional newscasts. “Our goal is clear,” as said by Mr. Kemp. “If we can save one life out there, I don’t care what it costs; this whole program will be worth it.”

WATER AEROBICS starts June 3rd

Water Aerobics, taught by Dawn Adams, will begin June 3rd. Classes will be held at the Pool on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 7a to 7:45a.

Dear Members, As the Golf Course Maintenance team welcomes back many returning seasonal associates, along with a handful of new team members, we are continuing to be productive on and off the golf course. A recent communication piece has been sent out, outlining many areas of “what to expect” on the property as some of you tee it up for the first time this season.

JEFF STEEN DIRECTOR OF GOLF COURSE MAINTENANCE jeffs@lochlloyd.com

With a long, drawn-out winter, we’re sure you are anxious for warmer days to enjoy time around the Club and out on the course. Our team has been busy getting the grounds and the course ready for you. Spring aeration, overseeding, sodding, fertilizing, and getting in the first mow of the year make for busy days. Along with daily maintenance practices, we have some exciting small projects coming up including bridge work near #3 green, wrapping a few bunkers with Zoysia grass, and moving the cart path at #8 from the left side to the right to accommodate the new real estate development. Additionally, our work includes building and repairing fences and buttoning up tree work. I’ll send out additional communication pieces overviewing further details as needed.

The Masters at Augusta National is right around the corner, which always seems to symbolize the start of “everything golf.”

We’re working hard to turn the course around from the winter months to give you a beautiful product we can all be proud of.

If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please feel free to contact me. My cell phone (831.238.8318) is always best.

Sincerely,

IN THE SPOTLIGHT

Whether your favorite furry friend is a cat, dog, horse, hamster, ferret or other critter, here’s your chance to capture their likeness on canvas. Even if you have NO artistic ability whatsoever, artist Melissa Weinman with Happy Trees Painting Company makes it super easy by pre-drawing your pet’s image on the canvas ahead of time. Then, you’ll paint the canvas during the event with step-by-step guidance from Melissa. Don’t worry … with Melissa’s expert tutelage, you’ll be amazed at the finished painting that you’ll take home and treasure.

Enjoy a glass of house wine, beer or well cocktail during class, on us!

Member Charge Bar available all evening! $55++ per person

(includes class, take-home painted canvas, and a glass of house wine, beer or well cocktail to enjoy during class) All attendees must submit a photo of their pet no later than May 15th to allow Melissa time to pre-draw the image on your canvas. Please email your pet’s photo to amye@lochlloyd.com or bring your photograph to the Clubhouse and we’ll scan and email it to Melissa. Only one pet per photo please.

Space is limited to ensure Melissa can assist everyone with their painting so don’t delay … call 816.322.1022 today!

A 7-day Cancellation Policy is in effect for this event. Any changes or cancellations to your reservation must be made prior to May 15th. Failure to adhere to this policy will result in applicable charges to your account.
