President’s Message
Dear NRCC Members, First, the Board has, pursuant to the Bylaws, appointed Rich Colabella to fill the vacancy created by the passing of Bill Powell. Rich just finished his three year term and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to assist the Board with the many issues facing the club. The Athletic Center project is moving forward with our loan package having been provided to several banking institutions that demonstrated an interest in funding the project. Actual working drawings are going out to bid. More details will be provided at the annual meeting on March 11, 2021. The Membership Preview program has been quite successful, with a boost from the tremendous reaction to the Club being featured on the Golf Channel during the College Tournament. The Board has temporarily postponed the sale of Treasury memberships. Please see Nicole’s message in this newsletter for further updates. If you haven’t already heard, the Golf Committee has elected to switch this year’s Men’s Member-Guest tournament with the Men’s Member-Member. We hope that by September many more people will be vaccinated and as a result, guests will be able to safely travel to NRCC. Thanks to the work of Rick Siemons and the Golf Committee, we have added 4 new outside (Monday) tournaments to the existing tournaments, which really helps our bottom line. Speaking of COVID protocols, the club continues to adhere to
North Ranch Country Club | March 2021
the State and local protocols. Please continue to social distance, wear masks, and observe the rules that we have put in place to protect our membership and staff. We are aware of the issues concerning tee times and appreciate your cooperation. Hopefully, as things get better with COVID and with Daylight Savings coming this month, we will be able to be more accommodating. That said, please continue to share carts when possible and do not remove the dividers ( many of which have been damaged) causing increased costs to the club. I again want to acknowledge the tireless efforts of our Management Team and our employees who, every day, try to make your experience at NRCC enjoyable. I also want to thank the Membership for its unwavering and continued support of the Club, from attending events, coming to “Taco Tuesday" and Friday night pizza, to resuming outside dining. We are extremely fortunate to be able to keep the Club, course and courts open. Please continue to observe our various rules and regulations and be considerate of your fellow members. Don’t forget that this year's annual meeting will be held March 11, 2021 via Zoom. If you haven’t registered yet please do so soon as it is an opportunity for you to learn more about what is going on at your club. Hope to see you at the Club. Michael Silver Board President

Manager’s Message
Dear North Ranch Members, We are excited to announce that while we wait for our permanent guard gate, which is bundled with the plans for our athletic center being approved through the city, we will be implementing a temporary guard shack, manned with security in our driveway. The guard shack will be located after you enter the driveway where you can turn left into the lower lot. (See photo below). We are also ordering member decal stickers for you to place inside your car on the left-hand corner of your windshield. This will help members from being stopped each time they come to the Club and be asked for their name and or member number. Additionally, the guard shack will have a master member list as well as an approved guest list. We are working to set up an efficient way for members to notifying the Club of any guests that may be joining them on the property - more information on all of this to come! We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we work to secure unauthorized access to our property. Thank you to one of our members who recently notified us of a suspicious vehicle in the parking lot. With their help we were able to identify the vehicle on film and turn over images of the vehicle to the Ventura County Sherriff ’s department. We appreciate our members being alert of their surroundings.
As a reminder• Do not leave any valuables in your car • Lock your car at all times • Report any suspicious vehicles as soon as possible Best, Jenny Duce General Manager 3

Dear Members, It has been a very exciting and busy time in the Membership office this month! The Southwestern Tournament covered on Golf Channel brought the Club so much attention that Rick and myself could barely keep up! The national coverage paired with the popularity of golf during this time has accelerated sales so much that we will be updating our preview program and increasing the price! Moving forward, the new Preview Membership will offer a 60-day incentive versus the previous 90 day, and the initiation fee will go from $20,000 to $25,000 if a preview member applies within the first 60 days of membership. If a preview prefers to wait 12 months, the initiation fee will be $30,000. With that said, for those on the list to sell, this does mean that prices for memberships will fluctuate and the Club's current selling prices at the time of your sale may not be reflective of the amount you would receive back. If you have any additional questions about this, please call me directly, and I am happy to explain this further. MEMBERSHIP APPLICATIONS: The following individuals have submitted applications for membership to be considered by a vote of the NRCC Board.

With our virtual blind tasting around the corner, we thought it would be fun to dive in to the process and objective of blind tasting as well as giving some tips on how to improve. Objective To make the best guess possible of what the wine is. While there are so many wines produced from all over the world, certain grape varieties and regions have a certain tell. Grapes of the Bordeaux family (i.e., Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc) tend to have this greenness characteristic that is reminiscent to green bell pepper or sometimes jalapeno. When you are blind tasting and you pick up one of those “clues” it narrows down what the wine could be, assuming that the wine is typical of its variety and region. Certain clues are much more important than others. For instance, picking up on white flowers in a wine is not nearly as helpful as say, buttery aromas. Why? Buttery aromas tend to be a by-product of malolactic fermentation, which is generally only practiced with a couple of varieties while white flowers can be in nearly every white wine. The objective is to find these “big clues” and then make an educated guess as to what the wine is. Process Sight, Nose, Palate, Structure. Each one serves its purpose. Sight can help identify if the wine is from a thick-skinned variety or a thin-skinned variety (Cabernet Sauvignon vs. Pinot Noir). It can also help with identifying age. Does the wine look vibrant and clear or is it turning brown at the rim? Older wines tend to develop a brown hue. Nose Besides structure, I think this is the most important part of tasting. This is where you find the “big clues”. • Is the wine fruit dominant or is it earthy? – Fruit for new world, earth for old world. • Does the fruit smell ultra-ripe or tart? Ultra-ripe warmer climate, tart cool climate. • What is the intensity of the nose? Is it subtle or does it jump out of the glass? If subtle, probably old world/ cooler climate; if intense, probably new world/warmer climate. • What other aromas do you smell? Butter? Think oakaged wines: Chardonnay, Bordeaux Blanc, White Rhone.
Palate At this point, you are tasting what you smell. Do you taste everything you smelled? Did anything change from the nose to the palate? I.e., did the ripe fruit you smelled taste tart? Might be a new world wine just from a cooler climate. Sonoma Coast Chardonnay is a great example of a wine that smells very ripe on the nose and tastes tart on the palate. Structure How does the wine react when you taste it? Does your mouth water intensely? Does it dry up? Depending on these two questions, you narrow down what the wine could be. For instance, high acidity is common in only a few varieties (Riesling, Chenin Blanc). Let us look at tannin for reds. Only a few grapes have high tannin (Nebbiolo, Sangiovese). After you gather all your clues, you begin the process of identifying which clues are the “big ones” and take a guess of what the wine is. Some tips: • Taste extremes - Taste wines that are structurally extremely different. For instance, taste a Russian River Pinot Noir and a Barolo side by side. This will help you identify low tannin vs. high tannin. • Taste wines that are similar - I tend to mix up new world Grenache and Pinot Noir sometimes. They are both similar in color, both do not have a lot of tannin and both can produce ripe wines. The purpose of this is to find out what separates the two. Pinot Noir is much more earthy in the sense of forest floor and mushroom aromas and Grenache tends to have more savory tones and meatiness to it. Alcohol is also something to pay attention to. Grenache tends to have much more alcohol than most Pinot Noirs. • Create a set of characteristics - For instance, Syrah will most likely display the following: Meatiness, Savory Tones, Pepper. When I am blind tasting and I taste two or more of these, I am most likely going to believe it is Syrah. By setting up a list of “big clues” you can decide what wine matches the best with what you’re describing from the glass. • Have fun - There is no need to get really complicated about wine. Its just grapes! 7

Dear NRCC Membership, As we roll into Spring, our tournament schedule is looking full. With limited events in 2020 due to the pandemic, we are anticipating a high participation rate for our 2021 events. I recommend that you do not delay in signing up. There was one major change to the Tournament calendar that should be noted. Due to the pandemic, the Golf committee thought it would be more viable to host the Men’s Member-Member in May and postpone the Men’s Member-Guest to September. The NEW dates for the Member-Member is May 13th - 16th and the Member-Guest will be held September 9th-12th. Please mark your calendars accordingly. For all tournament sign-ups, please use the links below.

He knocked in a 6 iron from 150 yards out! • Doyle Woods carded his first career ace on Valley #3! He hit a 5 wood from 158 yards that look good all the way. Unfortunately, Doyle didn’t physically see it go in, but had a big surprise waiting for him when he got to the hole. If you have a personal best or achievement that you would like to share, please stop in the office (door is always open), call (extension 237) or email me (smiller@northranchcc.org). RULES CORNER Bunker Local Rule Clarification - As long as there are no bunker rakes on the courses due to Covid-19 protocol, NRCC has adopted the following Local Rule: A player may take free relief anywhere in the bunker despite where it lies (does not have to be in a disturbed area. i.e., footprint or divot). The player may lift, clean, and place the ball at the nearest point that is not closer to the hole and the ball must remain in the bunker. Which in many cases the nearest point would only be 2"-6" inches no closer to the hole, not a full club-length. A player may take relief from a plugged lie but must place the ball as nearly as possible to where it originally came to rest. I.e., If the ball is plugged in the face of the bunker, then the ball must be placed on the face of the bunker as nearly as possible to where the ball was plugged. 14 North Ranch Country Club | March 2021
Lakes #8 pond marking has been changed from a Yellow Penalty area to a Red Penalty area. The biggest difference will be if a player’s ball carries the red line greenside and then rolls back into the penalty area, the player may take relief starting from where the ball last crossed the margin of the penalty area, dropping within two club lengths of that point but NOT closer to the hole than where it last crossed the margin. If the ball rolls back into the penalty area after two drops you may place the ball. There is no relief or redrop if you are standing in the penalty area after your drop, only if your ball goes into the penalty area. Please note that a player MUST be virtually certain that the ball carried the red penalty line greenside before taking relief greenside. 5 Relief Options for a Red Penalty Area • Replay the shot from where it was originally played from. • Play the ball from the Penalty area. • Keep the point of entry and the hole in line with one another and drop the ball as far back on that line as needed. • Two-club lengths, no closer to the hole from where the ball last crossed the margin of the Penalty area. • Play from the drop zone.
