Managers Message —by Anthony Chelena
Welcome Dayna Kelsey, who is the
new Clubhouse Manager for our Main
Clubhouse. She is a native of Indiana,
raised in an agricultural area closest
to South Bend. She attended Perdue
University where she earned a degree
in Hospitality Management. After
university she worked as a
Catering Sales Manager for
the Hilton Antlers Hotel
in Colorado Springs, CO.
Dayna comes to us most
recently from Indianapolis,
IN, where she was Assistant
Food & Beverage Director
at Hawthorns Club. At
Hawthorns Club she hosted
over 60 onsite weddings a
year as a part of their large
operation. You can check out her handiwork here http://
antlers.com/weddings-and-social-events.shtml and here
http://www.hawthornscountryclub.com/club/scripts/library/
view_document.asp?NS=WE&DN=WEDTESTIMONIALS
. Dayna has special operational emphasis on service training.
She has many new ideas for our Club and is excited to hear
yours too. Dayna arrived in Hendersonville the last week of
February and is brand new on the job. The first week here
she will be rotating through other departments to get fully
acquainted with our Club. Stop by and say hello to Dayna!
President’s Message —by Chris Burns
While March means basketball tournaments,
thinking spring, and the prelude to Azaleas
and the Masters for many of us, for your
board of directors it means budget time in
anticipation of a new fiscal year. While our
current year has been a good one so far…
meaning we are running pretty close to
our budget in terms of revenues and expenses, one area is still
lagging…enough new Members to replace those leaving due to
age or relocation. As Past President Johnson pointed out last
year, that hits us in three ways: less annual dues revenue, fewer
members to utilize and pay for club services, and fewer initiation
fees. The latter of those has been more problematic over the past
6-8 years. Historically, many clubs like ours relied on initiation
fees to supplement operations and our capital expenditures
budget each year. In the case of HCC, we need between $250,000
and $300,000 of free cash flow every year just to keep up with
capital maintenance and do modest capital improvements and
additions; a number we have only hit three times in the past ten
years. As a result, we have been very frugal with most of our
capital projects…paving 1/3 of our cart paths vs all of them,
repainting tennis courts vs replacing them, paving portions of
parking lots, not all of them. All while watching our strong cash
position get a little lower every year. As a club, we pride ourselves
on our historically strong financial position of practically no debt
and strong cash reserves. Our ongoing challenge is to maintain
that financial position while meeting our capital improvement
needs for today and tomorrow.
So while I wouldn’t go quite so far as to call our upcoming
meetings March Madness, it would definitely be fair to be termed
March Resourcefulness!

Hard to believe, but
spring is only a few
weeks away and our

Golf Tips —by Jay King
“When it’s breezy, swing easy”This is one of golf sayings that’s easier said than done,
especially when you have heavy wind in your face.
Natural instinct is to swing harder to overpower the
wind. Unfortunately it usually results in poor shots.
When you try to swing harder your swing can steepen and the additional
backspin causes the ball to go higher and shorter. Teeing the ball lower can
also increase backspin because it encourages a more descending approach.
It’s difficult to square the club face when the ball is teed low, causing a slice
spin. To be most effective, keep the tee height where you can have a level-4
degree up approach angle through impact.
The best advice while playing in windy conditions is to take a few extra
clubs on your shots and swing at 75 percent. Play the ball farther back
in your stance than normal and squat a little more at address to stay as
balanced as possible. If you can resist the urge to over swing, it will allow
you the balance needed to make a solid impact.

SMGA —by Diedrich Mohring
I was sitting in the Ward Room
on a Wednesday recently and the
weather was predicted sunny but
still a little cool. A group of us were
all waiting for the frost hold to be
lifted so we could begin to tee off.
You could feel the enthusiasm of all
the golfers there wishing warmer
weather was here.
Well, it’s getting closer as we
all know, in spite of what the
groundhog predicts.
Our first official start of the SMGA
season is just around the corner
with the opening of the SMGA
SPRING TOURNAMENT on
Friday, March 10th. It will be a full
breakfast at 7:30 AM and a 9:30 AM
shotgun start for a Shamble 2 BB
net. followed by a luncheon.
Get signed up now for the start of the new 2015 season.
If you haven’t played with the
SMGA (Senior Men’s Golf
Association) before now, it’s a great
time to start. Dues are only $15.00
per season and $4.00 dollars for
our normal events every Monday.
Starting age is 55 years old. Great
group of guys who will welcome
you to play regardless of your ability
or handicap.
We normally have a different format
every Monday such as 2 Man Team
Best Ball Net, 4 Man Single Best Ball
Net, Texas Scramble, 4 Man Team,
Colored Ball Net (Modified 2 BB
Net), etc. Well you get the idea!!
COME JOIN US. Get more info in
the Pro Shop.

As the seasons change, our department
also changes our focus from winter work
and projects to preparing the golf course
for another playing season. For us, the
biggest activity signaling the start of the
golf season is aerifying greens. The golf
course will be closed Wednesday and Thursday, March 18th
and 19th. This is a labor-intensive practice that is not only
an agronomic necessity, but also our opportunity to set the
greens up for success throughout the year.
Our staff is also putting the finishing touches on the
landscaping at the lower putting green. The changes here
have been well received, and we’re excited about the final
product. Not only will the green benefit from the increased
light and air movement, the view of and from the area is a
great addition.
Always great to hear from the Membership.
