Board of directors
Stephen McMahan President
Dear Members,
Steve Thoms First Vice President
Robert Sabo Treasurer
We hope you and your families had a great holiday season.
Melissa Sackman Secretary
Larry Miller Director
Thank you to those of you who attended our Board of Directors Meeting in December. For those of you that were unable to attend, please see below for a recap.
Board Of Directors Comments
Stephen McMahan reported that the committee selection process is progressing well. All committee chairs have been selected and each chair is responsible for selecting committee members. Currently, four out of five committees have finalized their members. Once the final committee completes its selection, we will send an announcement to the community
The interest in serving on committees has been exceptional, with about twice as many members applying as there are available seats. To ensure broader participation, we reached out to members who had been selected for multiple committees and asked them to choose one to serve on This allows more members the opportunity to contribute to the committees.
Management Report
Mary Banmiller provided updates on ongoing projects:
Pickleball Construction:

Canopy concrete pads.
Base leveling
Light base installation, which also passed inspection. In Progress:
Fence pole sleeve installation began Wednesday.

Sports Club Courtyard Renovations
The landscaping renovations to the Sports Club Courtyard have been completed, and we are excited to share that new planters for the courtyard fountain are on their way.
Entrances and Grounds Enhancements
We have completed enhancements at the University Drive and Nob Hill entrances, ensuring a welcoming arrival experience for all Members and Guests. Additionally, the Reflection Pond area and the landscaping along the Club entrance have been refreshed. Currently, we are fertilizing all St. Augustine turfgrass throughout the property.
Golf Course
On Monday, January 6, a wall-to-wall fertilizer application will be applied to the golf course Looking ahead, palm tree trimming will take place in the first quarter of the year, and pine straw application is scheduled for the last week of February.
Member Etiquette Reminder
As always, we kindly ask for your assistance in maintaining the course's conditions. Please remember to repair ball marks on greens and fill divots during your rounds. These small efforts go a long way in preserving the course for everyone’s enjoyment.
Thank you for your continued support of the Agronomy Team.

It was great to see double the turnout from the last 2 years and over 50 people ringing in the New Year with us at the bar!
I would also like to thank our Culinary Team, lead by our Chef de Cuisines Geneve Puga and Travis Hawley. They did an exemplary job leading their team to excellence and continue to enhance the culinary experience here at Parkland Golf & Country Club.
I would like to congratulate Troy Yohn on his promotion to Assistant Director of Food & Beverage Over the last year, he has showcased exceptional dedication to our Members and a passion for delivering outstanding dining experiences His commitment to excellence has made a significant impact on our Food & Beverage team, and we are excited to see him thrive in this new role.
