Going Out on a Limb! from Jerry Briele
Happy New Year!
What a FANTASTIC Christmas Season!
As we begin the new year we
have begun a tree removal program in anticipation of changing
out our greens to “Champion”
Bermuda. Universal Landscapes
has extended an opportunity to
property owners to have trees
removed on their property at a
very reasonable cost. Property
owners wishing to take advantage of this opportunity should
contact Skip Bulkley of the
GPOA to identify and arrange
tree removal.
Access to homeowner property from the golf course will be
limited to the areas where tree
work is being done on the golf
course and will be done while
the contractor is working in that
area. We anticipate that the
tree removal process will take at
least 6months.
The tentative schedule for con
version of the greens is to close
the golf course after July 4th
weekend and reopen Labor Day
weekend. More details about
the conversion schedule and
membership availability for golf
will follow in the upcoming
months.
We look forward to the upcoming 2013 season and anticipate
that the work currently ongoing
will be a tremendous positive
effect on the golf course.
Have a great 2013!!

“The most
important
shot
The Emerald Men’s Golf Association
(EMGA) held its season ending Christmas
party December 3, 2012. This was a joyous
occasion celebrating the end of another successful season of golf and camaraderie. Everyone enjoyed re-telling their stories about
missed putts, slices and hooks and the trees
that got in the way. The celebration was somewhat diminished when Ken Houser, George
Murray, and Bob Ware stepped aside after
long terms as EMGA President, Vice-President,
and Treasurer. All members are thankful for
their contributions of time and effort.
The evening will be remembered for many highlights starting with the tasty meal (featuring ham
and turkey), gifts for each attendee, awards for
golfers who enjoyed remarkable success in
EMGA tournaments; one of which was Bill
Kravec receiving “The Sandbagger Award” for
collecting the most cash during these tournaments. Many members also won some wonderful
“raffle” gifts (including a fabulous new driver).
The new board has big shoes to fill, but will keep
the MGA moving forward with a challenging
variety of tournament formats (including some of
the old favorites). The board will also make an
effort to be responsive to member concerns.
The EMGA is open for all male golfers that are
members of the Emerald Golf Club, application
forms are available in the Pro-Shop.

is the
next one.”
