Preparations under way for 2013 golf season

Preparations for the 2013 golf season are well under way.  Despite the recent snow storm, the golf staff and maintenance team have been diligent in getting ready for a great season.

New golf shop product is making its way on the floor for the Spring.  Footjoy, Oxford and Greg Norman apparel just to name a few, are here as well as a nice complement of outerwear, pull overs  and sweaters.  Perfect for the start of the season.  Come in and see a sampling of the new offerings!

Operationally, we have made an adjustment to the bag drop and starter's area (see pictures) at Stoney Creek.




In an effort to create  a more effective and professional greeting for our members and guests, the bag drop area and Guest Service Attendants will be positioned closer to the golf shop and restaurant.  This change will also free up parking space.
 
From a "curb appeal" perspecitve, members and guests that frequent Stoney Creek may also notice that the old railroad ties have been removed from the parking lot.  Also getting cleaned up are the pot holes and low spots in the parking lot area. 

The bag drop booth will now become the starter's booth!  This booth will come complete with extra sand bottles, daily cart rule signage, a starter's desk and a starter!  Once golfers have registered in the golf shop, as always, they will be required to give their receipt to the starter.

We feel strongly that these small changes will continue to enhance the golf experience at Stoney Creek.
