Natanis Spring Letter 2006

                                                                                                3/06
Dear Natanis Members and Friends,

                 We hope this Spring finds you in as good a shape as the golf course appears to be at this point.  There has been little to no ice build up or even snow build up for that matter.  Dick has managed to play at least a few holes every month since we closed last fall!  We hope this mild start will lend itself to a warm sunny golf year in 2006.  

                Allen and his assistant superintendent Charlie, head mechanic Alden and handy man Lou have been working to get the course, equipment and buildings in shape and none too soon as playing appears to be just around the corner.  The biggest project now is clearing all the trees that have blown down over the course of the winter.  

                The clubhouse will be ready for your golfing needs any day.  The Nike Sasquatch driver is already available in the shop, as are Titleist, Cobra, Ping and Nike products (putters, hybrids, irons, balls etc.)  As usual there will be a sale of last year’s equipment this spring.  Dick is available for anyone looking to get a jump on custom fitted clubs or club regripping and repairs.   

                In the interest of growing the sport of golf we are entertaining the possibility of two new programs this year.  The first, a family program would have families and their small children play in a recreational league Saturday afternoons.  The family league would involve a shotgun start on nine holes, instruction, dinner at the end of play and a tee shirt for those involved.  The second program we are contemplating is a limited day care service for those having trouble getting out to play during the week due to little ones at home.  We are looking for input from anyone who might be interested.  Please contact the pro-shop with suggestions or interest.  

                The open house this year will be on March 25 and 26.  We will be open both days 10 a.m.-4 p.m. assuming we aren’t already open for the year in which case we will be open normal golfing hours.  We look forward to seeing you soon.

                                                                                                                                 Sincerely,

                                                                                                                                The Brownes
