your Club has been one of the busiest and most exciting yet! As the Club’s management team and entire staff strive to improve your experiences each and every time you join us, we are overjoyed by the recent feedback from Members and guests. Following both the Men’s and Ladies Member-Guest tournaments we heard comments such as:“I have never been to a friendlier establishment; everyone was so nice and treated us with such wonderful hospitality” and “Your club has a wonderful “Old Florida” feel to it that is hard to find nowadays; we love it!” as well as,“The course, especially the greens, are in exceptional condition. The best I’ve played in a long, long while.” We thank everyone for their participation and support of the Club throughout this busy season and, as we continue to ‘spring forward’, we look forward to seeing you at the upcoming Taylor Mason Comedy Night and Mother’s Day celebration as well as the “Awesome 80’s” End of Season event! Kick off the summer with your kids at the School's Out Pool Party and be sure to keep your children busy over the summer months by signing them up for one of our many camp

offerings. We offer Golf, Tennis, Swim and Combo Camps. Pick up your camp brochure at the Club or download it from the website and be sure to sign up early due to popular demand! We also thank you for recommending the Club to your friends, co-workers and family members. We have you to thank for the many new Members we have welcomed to the Club over the past couple months. Thank you for also making each prospective member and new Member feel at “home”. It is easy for me to tell someone that our Members are the friendliest around and that they’ll love the Club because of it; but your actions put truth to my words and lead to membership sales. The summer season at the Club is always a time of improvements and preparation, so please let us know if there is something you would like to see at CRCC. We are able to better serve you when you let us know how we can improve. We look forward to your suggestions! S AV E

NOW THAT THE WARM

season is approaching so are the insects that can cause damage to the golf course. Most of the damage, like the course experienced last year, is due to an insect called a mole cricket. During the next couple of months, the adult mole cricket will lay hundreds of eggs underneath the turf. The hatching of all of these eggs is factored by temperature and weather conditions. It is very important to time the hatching of the eggs with a wall to wall application of insecticide. These insects are extremely easier to control when they are smaller in size, once they mature, they are very hard to control. In the next month, we will be applying insecticide to the golf course to help prevent any damage to the turf. Thank you for your cooperation.

Monday - Tuesday, April 15 & 16, 9 am This event has become so popular that we added another day to accommodate everyone who wants to participate. A continental breakfast will be served courtside at 8:30 am and a buffet lunch on the terrace will follow the completion of play. The Red division (Open, A1, & A2) will take place on Monday, April 15. The Blue division (A3 & B2) will play on Tuesday, April 16. Both divisions will be limited to the first 18 teams to sign-up.

C LU B EV E N T R E S E RVAT I O N P O L I C Y Special club events, wine dinners, Saturday night seafood buffets and holiday dining are popular events that sell out and require the purchase of special food and beverage products, equipment, entertainment, etc. Last minute un-replaced cancellations (including changes to the party number) are unfair to those Members who are turned away due to full capacity and cause the Club to incur unnecessary expenses if the reservation is not replaced. As a result, the Club must exercise a firm enforcement of the special event and holiday dining policy. • At the time of making your reservation we will charge your account 100% of the event price. • Please let us know if you have other Members dining with you, so we may contact them. • You may cancel 7 days prior to event, without being charged. • If you cancel less than 7 days prior to the event, you will have to pay 100% of the event price. Note: Should there be a wait list and we are able to fill your reservation less than 6 days prior to the event, your account will be credited in full.
