2015 Annual Newsletter

2015 Invoice Newsleer
SUMMER IS COMING…First, let me
welcome back all members to another great season at
Clinton Hills! You are what makes CHSC the place we love
to spend our summers. 2015 promises to be an exciting
year for the club; and one that can’t get here soon enough!
A special thank you to all those who participated in last
year’s annual meeting. We had record participation and
were able to reach a clear consensus on the club’s direction.
Annual dues for 2015 are as follows:
Family Membership - $600 plus tax
Single Membership - $300 plus tax
You have the option of renewing your membership
online in our “Membership Store” at
www.clintonhills.com/store, or by check to the address
enclosed on your renewal invoice. Please remember to
keep the membership key cards you received last year,
they will continue to be your membership entry card. If
you require replacement card(s), please contact our
club administrator, Tricia Renneker at
admin@clintonhills.com. Replacement cards are $10
per set of three.
This spring upon your return to the club, you will notice
many exciting and new changes/improvements. To learn
more, check out the Facilities Update on the back page. An
addition of an oil-less fryer in the snack bar promises an
expanded and improved menu!
Lastly, I would like to encourage all members to bring your
extended family members and friends to the club this
summer as guests. Guests to the club continue to be our
largest source of new members that continue to grow and
renew our club. To encourage this, in this mailing is a
voucher to bring four guests at one time. If you know of
someone who is thinking of joining Clinton Hills and
would like a member of the board to reach out to them
with information, please email our membership chair
Louie Schneider at membership@clintonhills.com. If you

please feel free to contact me or other board members via

Facility Updates
Swim Team
e’re going to spruce up the clubhouse building and
check-in desk with some fresh new colors this season. Look for the swim team’s logo colors of Blue, Aqua
and Orange. This sure will be an improvement from the
faded tan and blue that’s on the building now. I could use a
few volunteers so contact Gus Thierry at 658.9485 if you
would like to help. We will plan on the painting during the
first week of May.
Other improvements include: adding an extension to the
children’s swing set; adding eco-friendly mulch to the play
areas; the driveway and parking lots will be repaired and seal
coated; areas around the grounds will be cleaned up and
some minor landscaping improvements will be done.
Other repairs and maintenance will be addressed in time for
the opening of our club on May 23rd.
The Dolphins look forward to another great season! In
2014, we placed 2nd in the league championships, "A"
Division, and had many many personal bests. This year we
have some new faces on the coaching staff, but that familiar
Dolphin energy will be strong in the air! Alex Lewis, is the
new head coach who has the personality and passion for
swimming to lead the Dolphins! All levels of ability
