A Very Happy New Year to my fellow members and friends. I wish you fortune and prosperity in the New Year 2014. 2013 will soon be history and even before we know it, we would be riding into the Year of the Horse. Very soon, we will be calling our 11th Annual General Meeting, and it would be an opportune time again for members to let their voices be heard. As such, I would like to urge and remind members to please join us for the AGM on 28 March 2014 in the Ficus Ballroom. We reached many remarkable milestones in the year that passed. One of our most important milestones was the successful completion of the Golf Course Upgrading Project that we undertook to improve the playability of our course. We sourced the best quality of grass and utilised the latest golf course technology to complete the upgrading well within our estimated budget of $23m. We have now completed the Defects Liability Period and the final account is being vetted by our Quality Service team. We have received innumerable praises and accolades for our spanking new emerald greens, especially from corporate golfers and the media. Our golf course utilisation rate has increased thanks to the innumerable corporate events we have held since our reopening. We also had the privilege of hosting the prestigious Mercedes Benz Challenge Singapore Country Finals on our greens, apart from other corporate golfing events such as the ExxonMobil Singapore and the Business Times Corporate Golf League to name a few. The best endorsement for our greens comes from the Asian Golf Magazine who awarded us Asia Pacific’s Third Best Course Renovations in 2012 and followed it up by ranking us amongst The Top 10 Courses in Singapore in 2013. Our new greens also saw the much-awaited return of the Jurong Charity Golf after a gap of 3 years. I would like to thank all our members, donors, sponsors and supporters who contributed generously to make this event a success. While the Year of the Snake proved to be challenging with a constricted budget, we have embarked on more assertive tactics to widen our revenue streams. One of these measures was to outsource our F&B operations to our last caterers FLM Management Pte. Ltd. FLM undertook the task of renovating and improving our F&B outlets and gave a complete makeover to Green Banyan, Golfers’ Terrace, Fukuya Japanese Restaurant and Fu Lin Men Chinese Restaurant. They also introduced a greater variety to their menu and spruced up their services. We have been receiving positive feedback from members on the quality of food and service at all our F&B outlets and we continue to implement your suggestions so you can enjoy good quality F&B services at a reasonable price and value. The Club also undertook extensive upgrading and renovation of all the Club Facilities. We carried out extensive roof repairs at the S&R complex, the Main Clubhouse, the Driving Range and Golfers Terrace. We have also refurbished the washrooms and the fencing at Tennis Courts and undertook maintenance repairs of the Swimming Pool. Another highlight of 2013 was the addition of 5 new Jackpot machines that were recently installed by our Sports & Recreation department thus extending the range of entertainment options available to members. Do take a shot at these new machines. You never know, Lady Luck may be waiting for you just round the corner in the Year of the Horse. I would like to thank the General Committee and Sub-Committees along with Management and the Staff for all their support and co-operation as we ride together in the Year of the Horse with renewed vigour. I wish each and every member a Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year. 马年吉祥,万事大吉! Bobby Wee President 2 news HAPPY NEW YEAR! The Club would like to wish all its members, friends and associates a Happy and Prosperous New Year! As we usher in 2014 and the Year of the Horse, we wish you lots of blessings, brimming with abundance and prosperity, and many more joyful moments to be shared in the Club!

The Club has joined hands with Heartland Golf Schools to introduce a Night Golf League to Singapore. The first season will commence shortly after the Chinese New Year holidays. Games will be held on Monday nights, another ‘first’ for JCC. Play will commence with a Shotgun start at 6.00pm each Monday, to add more excitement to our otherwise quiet Mondays. League Teams will consist of between 4 to 8 players. However, individual players are more than welcome to join in. Team Captains may decide which of their players to field each week, and team members who are not ‘on duty’ are also welcome to join as individuals. Anyone with a PC or Handicap is most welcome, Members or Visitors alike. The first season will run for 12 games. Anyone who plays in 9 or more, regardless of score, will qualify for the Season Finale, where some very attractive prizes will be up for grabs! An important aspect of the League, in addition of course to friendly competition, is to promote camaraderie amongst the players. This will be helped by the fact that the League fees will include a complimentary beer or soft drink and snacks after the game. Our caterers FLM have agreed to provide a limited “4 Ball Menu” for late evening diners after the League games, and we look forward to seeing our Golfers Terrace all abuzz on League nights!

We know that with your support we can continue to improve our facilities and activities to a standard that you can be proud of and enjoy to your satisfaction. There has been an increase in litter on the golf course recently, most notably the many cigarette butts around the fairways and greens. Members are requested to take note of this and remind their guests and fellow golfers to keep the course clean and litterfree always. Any person found littering the course will face strict action. Ash-trays are issued by our starters at the respective 1st and 10th tee boxes and we hope members will remind each other to throw the cigarette butts into these ash-trays.

This year, we were joined by the residents of St. Luke’s ElderCare and seniors from FaithActs. GM Farrock Ebrahim, formally welcomed the elders and President Bobby Wee thanked everyone who came and joined the celebration with us. The elders were welcomed by a live band TnT making spirits bright with their lively music. The elders from St. Luke’s took everyone by surprise with a performance of their daily exercise. The crowd was also delighted by a traditional dance performance by octogenarian Mr Yong, who used to be a professional Wayang dancer with a Chinese Opera troupe. This was followed up by a song performance from a volunteer at St. Luke’s, Ms Jenny. The evening was made even more festive by UkeBlazers who serenaded the elders with Christmas Carols and an Ukulele performance by UkeBoomers. The highlight of the evening was of course the light-up ceremony officiated by JCC President Bobby Wee, and a visit by Santa Claus. Santa surprised each resident of St. Luke’s and FaithActs with a small cash gift to brighten up their Christmas. Continuing the spirit of giving and sharing, the Club presented donation cheques to Lakeside Family Centre, Singapore Children’s Society, Association for Persons with Special Needs (APSN), and Society for the Aged Sick. Before closing, the S&R Committee Chairman, Mr Lim Gim Hong, showed his appreciation by thanking all who had helped to make the night a success. The elders were ecstatic and left with big smiles on their faces. 7 A Day With the Pro 2014 Spend an entire day at the course with a PGA Professional!

We hope you will support our aim to keep our greens immaculate, so you can enjoy a perfect game of golf, always. If you have ideas or stories to inspire or educate other golfers, share them with the Course Superintendent at publications@jcc.org.sg. Cultural Practices on the Golf Course We follow good cultural practices on the Golf Course, once in 3 months to maintain our course in pristine condition. 1. Hollow coring of the greens This is carried out every 3 months for the purpose of relieving compaction and amending the sand profile to get rid of thatch and organic matter that builds up over time and alleviate soil layer problem. This process also provides us with a way to allow oxygen into the soil and the roots of the turf, which will in turn encourage aerobic microbial activity to counter the effects of harmful fungi that inhabits the soil. Hollow coring also benefits the greens by improving the water infiltration, allowing surface water to drain freely in rainy weather. 2. Sand Top-dressing and brushing Picture 1 Hollow Coring in progress Picture 2 Close up of the cored surface of green (Picture 3 and 4) Top dressing with sand fills up the holes (Picture 2). Brushing helps to work the top-dressed sand into the cored holes (Picture 4). The other benefits of sand top-dressing are: smoothening of irregularities on the green surface, providing surface firmness and minimising the formation of turf grain. Top-dressing is also the most effective practice available for biological control/or dilution of thatch on the greens. 3. Rolling Rolling is necessary to level out any uneven surface and helps to work the top-dressed sand into the turf canopy to achieve a firm and true surface for putting. Rolling at other times is carried out to increase green speeds.
