September was one of the longest rain periods we have experienced in many years. We were lucky not to have had the amounts many of our neighbors received. The rain we did get was, for the most part, easy extended rains which helped the newly seeded areas on the greens. On the downside, this prevented us from our routine mowing, weed control, and various other projects. Hopefully the sun will return and we can get back on schedule.

We are anticipating a beautiful fall season of golf and football. The Fall Mixer will be held Sunday, September 20th at 1:00pm. The format for this event will be Texas scramble. We have a change for the Fall Member-Member this year on October 2nd through 4th. The format will be the 9 Hole Match Around that we use for the Men’s Member-Guest. Matches will begin at 5pm on Friday, October 2nd for the first nine hole match. Matches on Saturday will begin at 9:00am and Sunday at 1pm. There will be six teams in each flight with the better ball scored per hole in a four ball match play format. All players...

We appreciate your participation in the 58th South Carolina Open which was held July 20th through July 23rd. Your efforts in sponsorship and filling the volunteer positions were much appreciated. Billy Anderson of Eagle Point Golf Club in Wilmington, NC shot rounds of 69-65-72-206 to capture the event by one shot over Steve Isley of Oak Island, NC. Low amateur honors were shared by Drew Ernst and Taylor Zimmerman with three day totals of 211 which tied for 4th. Congratulations to Billy and all the participants for their professional conduct and courtesy displayed throughout the tournament.
