MEMBERS’ LOUNGE IN THE QUAIL INN—GRAND OPENING!
Scheduled for Tuesday, May 3, the Oakmont Golf Club will have its Grand Opening of our new Members’ Lounge. To be located in the banquet room area nearest the bar, this room will be dedicated for use by OGC members and their guests to gather and enjoy each others’ company, as well as partake of food and beverages. The lounge’s design and its operating guidelines have been developed by a special committee under the guidance of our club’s Membership Committee Chair, Barbara Robinson. Many good folks have contributed to this development, including Andy Frauenhofer, Tom Finnerty, Frank Giannini, Heather Peterson and Rich Treglia. The Grand Opening will initiate a trial period of operation, nominally set for a 3–6 month period. Assessment of the lounge’s operation will be made on a monthly basis and reported to the full Oakmont Golf Club Board. As you might expect, the lounge will not be available to members and their guests at all times. Heather and Rich will need to revert it to use as needed for booked events (weddings, receptions, luncheon meetings, etc.). The specific hours of operation for the lounge, as well as usage guidelines, will be announced via the Grand Opening. These guidelines will include having a sign-in sheet when members use the room, as well as how food and beverages will be ordered for consumption in the lounge. There will be nice, new furniture in the lounge! Approved by Heather so that the furniture pieces and their fabrics will be compatible for occasional use in the front lobby of the Quail Inn, we will have a suite consisting of a loveseat, two chairs, coffee table and an end table. This furniture is being acquired at no cost to the Oakmont Golf Club’s operating funds—and at a very special price ($2,400). The Social Committee is providing funds now for the deposit, from prior Twilighter raffles, and will continue to provide funds for complete purchase as the 2016 Twilighter season progresses. Please remember: our first Twilighter will be held on Monday, May 2 with a Cinco de Mayo theme. The Members’ Lounge is being created for the purpose of enhancing all members’ experience and value as we enjoy our membership in the Oakmont Golf Club. That includes inviting guests to come check us out and consider joining our dear club. Yes, we are all ambassadors of the Oakmont Golf Club.

Coté, and then they went out on the course and played a round of Match Play pairing experienced players with those who had not done it.
