THE GALLERY A MESSAGE FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER, THE GALLERY GOLF CLUB Jeremy Duda

As previously communicated, the overseed on the South course was fantastic with positive comments from all who played. The North course opening was delayed as we want to have the best possible conditions for the Members prior to opening. Carts are currently off the path on South and we will do everything possible to get them off the paths on North as soon as possible after reopening. We apologize for any inconvenience the delayed opening or carts on path caused Members and guests.

Starting now, our Club Hours of Operation are the following: The Gallery Grille: Lunch Daily 10:30am-3pm, Dinner Wednesday-Sunday 3pm-8pm The Gallery Golf Shop: Daily 7am-5pm The Sports Club: Monday-Friday 5am-8pm, Saturday-Sunday 7am-7pm (year round) In addition, we will be offering dinners to-go on Monday and Tuesday. Please see the flyer at the end of this newsletter for additional information.

We have some great events scheduled for this year at The Clubs of Dove Mountain. Please keep an eye out for the weekly emails the Clubs send out and sign up as soon as possible so you do not miss out.

THE GOLF CLUB AT DOVE MOUNTAIN DOVE MOUNTAIN UPDATE Matt Nuechterlein

Good Day Members, Our weather has finally cooled down after a long hot summer. We are so excited to be heading into our busy season with many fun/exciting Member events on our schedule.

The team here at the Club is focused on providing remarkable service to our Members and their guests.

We are always committed to improving upon your experiences and always welcome feedback from our Membership, please let me know if you have any feedback you wish to share.

Our over-seeding process for this season has been completed. We are very happy with the overall course conditions; however we are well aware that this new strand of ryegrass still will need some more time to mature over the next 4-6 weeks. We thank you all for your patience during the over-seeding season as we know the golf courses’ availability and playability are impacted. Please keep in mind, these over-seeding practices will improve the playability and overall conditions of our course for the next 5-6 months.

Last season, we can all agree that the playing conditions at Dove were far better than the previous few years. Our team has all the confidence in our Superintendent, Nathan Gloyd, and the Golf Course Maintenance team he has assembled at our facility. We look forward to pushing the needle further in areas where we can this season.

The Saguaro Renovation Project has been moving along quite well and we are so eager to share the progress in person with our members. We are all going to be very proud and excited to play the Saguaro nine at the end of the construction. Please keep in mind that Saguaro is still an active construction zone and we should not be touring the course without our professional staff supervision.

November is filled with lots of great Member EventsSunset Gathering, Ladies Member-Member, Men’s Member-Member, Member-Staff Tournament, Keenan’s Clinics, and our annual Heaven & Hell. Please let our staff know if you want to sign up or hear more about those great events.

November means Thanksgiving will be here before you know it. I am extremely thankful for all our Members at the Club, our great staff, and the opportunity to serve you and your guests on a daily basis.

Thank you again for your support of the Club and I look forward to seeing you soon!

GOLF AT THE GALLERY GOLF UPDATE Mike Russell, PGA

Dear Gallery Members, Happy November!! It has been great seeing everyone out on the South Course the past 2 weeks playing some golf and getting the season started!

As we head into season, I thought this would be a good time to remind everyone of some course care policies and procedures: As compaction on the course becomes an issue as the season begins, we ask each group to take no more than two golf carts when playing. This will help with cart traffic on the course along with unnecessary wear and tear of the golf carts along with making sure we don’t run out of carts for those playing later in the day.

Please repair all ball marks on the greens. A good “rule of thumb” is to fix yours, plus another.

Please rake the bunkers after you’ve played a shot from the bunker.

Please fill all divots with sand and seed mix.

We had a very good grow-in on the South Course and following these easy steps will enhance the aesthetics and playability of the course through the season.

First Tee Tucson Equipment Pick Up Day Tuesday, November 14th between 9-11AM in The Gallery lower parking lot Support First Tee Tucson by participating in a equipment pickup day!

Items needed: clubs, umbrellas, balls, shoes, bags, range finders, travel bags, hand carts, electric trolleys, gently used clothing, etc.

Questions? Email Tom Henderson cowboytom@comcast.net PAGE 5 The South end of the range is officially open! We will be operating at limited hours as our golf staff needs to hand pick the range as the seed continues to germinate and grow-in. Range hours will be from 7:00am – 1:00pm until further notice.

The North Course is scheduled to open on Wednesday, November 8th. The course will be “Cart Path Only” following its opening, no exceptions. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

On behalf of the Golf Team, we look forward to a fantastic 2022/2023 season!

Good Golfing, Mike

AGRONOMY AGRONOMY UPDATE, THE GOLF CLUB AT DOVE MOUNTAIN Nate Gloyd

Dear Members, The team pushed through and completed our overseeding of the golf courses this Fall. We transitioned our tee complexes and fairways to our perennial winter rye grass. The golf courses are certainly a little wetter than normal this time of year as we really push to mature the rye grass stand. Thank you for your support of our team.

The Saguaro golf course has made a lot of progress this summer through our renovation. We have successfully seeded greens on holes #2-8 at this point, with our plan to seed #1 and #9 within the next couple of weeks. Our team along with the construction team has been installing and irrigating the new sod on our tee boxes as well as all the new sod around all the green complexes and approach areas. We are all excited for the Members to be able to experience the new Saguaro nine next year.

Yappy Hour Friday, November 17th 4:00pm To learn more and to RSVP please click HERE! PAGE 5

Our team will continue to focus on improving our detail work and improving the overall conditions of our Tortolita & Wild Burro nines this season.

Once we get through the next couple of weeks of continuing to grow in that ryegrass stand, we will increase our mowing frequencies and dial in our detail work for December-April.

Members can expect our green speeds to be like last year and continue to improve as the weather cools. Once our soil temperatures drop, the firmness of the greens will allow us to lower those green heights and get our bent grass greens rolling at a great speed. We look forward to another great season of course conditions.

We hope to see you golfing on the course soon!

GOLF AT THE GOLF CLUB AT DOVE MOUNTAIN GOLF CORNER Jake Hermes

It seems like October flew by here on the mountain and now we are entering our Member event season as November rolls around. It is exciting to be getting out of our overseed period and back to having 54 holes open once again (Saguaro closed till May). We appreciate everyone’s patience during this time as having courses closed and on cart path only will only make the golf courses better for season. We understand the inconvenience that this time of year causes, but it is vital to the quality of our golf courses each year.

October included a few Member events at Dove that were a lot of fun!

Keenan Holt hosted another very well-attended bunker clinic on 10/13 and we had over 15 Members take part and improve their bunker games in the process.

We hosted our first Pigskin/Poker/Pool night in the men’s locker room on 10/16 and Rich Anemone took home the prize money in the Hold Em’ Tournament.

Our Member/Staff outing on 10/26 was once again a sell out! We had 24 Members take part in the event with six of our staff: The winner this month was the team of Jack Cribbs, Vinnie Abucewicz, Elena Abucewicz, Kim Klippstein and Kim Hillman!

We also hosted our Men’s 2-Ball on 10/28 where all participants competed in an 18-hole alternate shot format. The winners were Dan Ice and Travis Bailey.
