Enjoyment, stability & longevity

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

We had several opening events in late April and May, and I want to extend a hearty thank-you to staff and Members who
ensured that they were all successful. As I’ve had the pleasure to attend them all, I’m particularly thankful for the great food!

With Kathy Constantinou out enjoying her vacation, Krisanne Knickle took over the mic and did a fantastic job welcoming all
to the 9H Opening Dinner on April 26. Jan Flott, captain of the 18H section - demonstrating her schoolteacher experience
- made sure that the 9H Section was aware of all of the 18-hole individual and partner match-play opportunities that are
available to all Members, with sign-up deadlines in May.

Despite the rainy start to the day, there was a great turn-out for the 18H Opening Shotgun and Dinner on May 15. Many
thanks to Jan Flott, the 18H Committee and staff for putting together such an enjoyable day. The scramble format is perfect
for those of us who are still working the rust out of our swings!

It was a pleasure to join the men for the Guest Card Holder Beer & Wings Night on May 9. I enjoyed talking to many of the
GCHs, and Paddy was sure to let them know of the Match Play events available for them this year. This includes a mixed
Member/GCH four-ball, so you may be asked to team up. I understand that husband and wife teams are permitted, but play
together at their own risk!

We also had our first club-wide golf event with the Victoria Day field day. A great time was had by all who attended this fun,
non-competitive event.

With Mother’s Day Brunch and Dinner, Book Club, Speaker Series and other events, we’ve had an exciting start to the
season!

Update on planning activities

The Land Project Steering Committee Phase 3 has been in regular contact with Tridel as we wait for Markham’s response to
the application. Tridel will be hosting an Open House for the Ladies’ community – Members, GCHs and staff – on June 13
from 5 pm to 8 pm at the Clubhouse. This will not be a formal presentation but a drop in and visit format, to view displays and
ask questions of the Tridel representatives and consultants, which will include building and landscape architects.
