The Banquet Room renovations are coming along nicely. The Final Touches are going in now!! We have already had a couple of events in the room and everyone had great compliments on how it looks and feels!! Greetings from the Grounds Happy Easter and Hello Spring!! The grass is definitely growing now. We have applied our pre emergent chemicals to green banks, tee banks, and fairways. As well, we applied a post emergent to all tee & green banks for Poa control. You will see the guys out regularly mowing fairways, rough, etc. from here on. As well, we will be removing the broken Willow tree from #14 and replacing it with a Dawn Redwood this week. Dawn Redwood trees are fairly fast growing and help to control wet areas like willows. The Dawn Redwood will have a longer lifespan than a willow tree#9 will receive a tree on the right side soon to replace the one that died at the end of last year We look forward to a good year for the turf as we have come out of winter in good shape. One more thing - I would like to personally ask each member to fill their divot and at least one more as we head into the season. It is important that we leave the golf course in better shape than we found it when we play.

The Fox Run Senior Men's Golf Association is enjoying a renaissance and we were encouraged when almost 50 players teed it up on March 24th. So much going on... Amazing Ace... Don Caldwell jarred a majestic 6 iron on the 15th hole on Tuesday March 24. This resulted in Don (aka Sid Jackson's identical / evil twin) getting a $152.00 check from the Melvin Younts Hole in One Fund. Reminder to all Senior golfers, you owe the Treasurer $2.00 for the hole in one fund. This means you Melvin. March 7 was the Fox Run Spring Fling and Oyster Roast. A lovely day, huge turn-out, good golf, great food and music and the occasional adult beverage were the order of the day. Senior golfers who finished in the money were Jim Glenn, Dennis Baldree, Robert Massingill, Van Caldwell, Dan Dionne, Gary Richardson, Bill Bell, Jerry Woltman, Grey Burdette and Henry Stephens. Dennis Baldree also had closest to the pin on #11 at 4 feet. Way to go guys. Senior Texas step-back and lunch... On March 17th the seniors conducted a tournament and lunch with 44 participants. A great day of golf, lunch and equal opportunity needling was had by all. Thanks to Social Chairman Bill Rinkavage for his efforts. Winning teams were present and accounted for but due to the amount of Guinness and other beverages consumed on St. Patrick ’s Day, Seamus and Shanksway don’t remember who won the money. Only Kidding…. First Flight Low Gross: D. Meyer, L. Gunnells, D. Ewing and C. Realbuto. First Flight Low Net: D. Gardner, D. Dionne, W. Griffith, J. DeMarco. Second Flight Low Gross: R. Malo, B. Schricthe, R. Curley and H. Stephens. 2nd Flight Low Net: J. Smith, J. Glenn, G. Richardson and E. Ritchie. Good Playing men!!

Every event or regular day at the club, Georgina and Amanda are taking care of all our food and beverage needs with grace, style and aplomb. Thank You Ladies, way to go! The senior lunch on March 17 was awesome! And now a few words from our editorial board… We are playing lift clean and place through the green until further notice. We are still only playing winter rules in your own fairway. Root and Rock rule means you get relief from the Root or Rock not the trees. Relief from a cart path is to the side closest to the ball not closest to the fairway. Options from Red stakes, 2 club lengths from the point where the ball last crossed the margin of the hazard, stroke and distance, which means go back to where the ball was last hit from and hit another ball, keeping the point where the ball last crossed the hazard, extend a straight line back keeping flagstick and the last margin point in line, you can also go to the opposite side of the hazard an equal distance from the hole. If there is ever a question about a ruling, play 2 balls and then check with Dave or Len. Finally, Casual Water, as defined by the USGA, "As any temporary accumulation of water outside of a water hazard that is visible before or after the player takes his stance." Relief is the nearest point no closer to the hole, and must be complete relief. This could move a player from the rough to the fairway. Since this is a gentleman’s game and we are reputedly gentleman, occasionally, you know where this is going… let’s play the game the right way. Remember: Know the rules, if you do not have a rule book you can go to the USGA site and obtain one for the cost of shipping and handling. If you are not a member of the USGA, we suggest that you join. The USGA is the governing body for the sport of Golf in the USA. The USGA governs the way the game is played in the USA and works with the Royal and Ancient Golf Club to maintain the rules of the game for the common good of the sport. Until we meet again or tee it up, may all your drives be long, majestic and findable and all your putts settle in the bottom of the cup.
