OFF

This will be my last message for my time as President of Peach Tree Golf and Country Club I have reached the end of my third year as President and ninth year on the board I am ready to spend more time at the Club playing golf rather than going to meetings

First things first. Please take the time to fix divots, repair ball marks on greens, and rake the sand trap after you hit out It makes it better for everyone Plus, it helps Tracy and his crew to keep our course at a high standard of play for each of us I just needed to say that one more time!

I am not going to go on and on about what was good and how much we accomplished during my three terms I will let others be the judge of the effectiveness of my time helping with leading the club There were significant issues to overcome such as COVID and exciting and beneficial challenges such as the City Club Overall, we increased the membership and gave people a Club they can be proud of and a wonderful place to enjoy time with friends

The reason for our success is due to the many people who devote themselves to the betterment of the Club First, the Board of Directors I had the privilege of working with men and women who put the entire membership first in every decision we had to make Their input, along with the committees they chaired gave us great direction Each committee member is to be commended for their dedication I am so impressed with how much they care about the Club, the members and those who are employed by the club to enhance our experience

There are so many who give of themselves each day to make the Club the best it can be The efforts of our leadership team and all the people working in their groups are the reason we have the best value of a Club in Northern California I am very grateful for their efforts I want to make sure each one of our outstanding team members know how much I appreciate their efforts and the results that are produced by them Thank you

Finally, thank you to our membership Whether you are a long-term member or have just become a member, we have been in this together This is our Club We share a responsibility to nurture and preserve it to the best of our abilities. I encourage you to become involved with the behind-the-scenes committees and helping the Club to get better Anyone who is a proprietary member can be a part of leadership Yes, it takes time and commitment, but it is a journey worth taking

Thank you for giving me the privilege of serving the Club It was both humbling and rewarding Now, on to the practice range I can use the practice time

Best, Whit
