Dear MGC Members,
Happy Holidays to all the MGC Members and families. We look forward to hosting you on Saturday, December 10th for Santa’s Brunch, and then we will see the adults on Friday, December 16th for the Member Holiday Party. You will find more information inside the newsletter.
The MGC 105th Annual Meeting was held on Thursday, November 17th. We had almost 60 people attending which was a nice turnout. The Committee Chairs and other speakers did a wonderful job updating key actions from the past year and giving the members a sneak peek of the year ahead. If you were unable to attend the Annual Meeting, a video of the meeting has been posted to the member section of MGC’s website.
During the GM’s portion of the Annual Meeting presentation, I announced the birth of our third grandson (November 8) who lives in Maple Grove. All three boys are under 3! Mother and baby are doing great. I followed up with a few initial takeaways from the member survey. Expect a Summary soon on the “strengths to maintain”, “areas needing improvement”, and “other member survey themes”.
I also touched base on our new 2023 Master Calendar. It will list all golf tournaments, golf course closures, holiday events, and Club events in one document. Expect to see this arrive in the mail in late December.
Please mark your calendars for Friday, May 12th to attend the 100th anniversary of the Grand Opening of our iconic clubhouse. We will host a fun golf tournament that afternoon and finish with a lavish dinner in the Ballroom. More information to follow.
Finally, I reported the excellent news regarding the Employee Holiday Appreciation Fund. 95% of our membership participated, which is an excellent example of your support. On behalf of all the staff, we thank you for your generosity. This is an ideal way for the Club to be an “Employer of Choice”. This gift will certainly assist with employee retention – which is so important today.
Have a wonderful Holiday Season and we wish you the best in 2023!
On behalf of the Board and staff, we appreciate your continued support.
Joseph “JJ” Wagner
