From the General Manager

As you will see in the following pages, Champions Retreat had an epic year in 2022. The growth of our Membership and their use of the Club was felt throughout and we are thankful for such a great Membership to be as supportive of our efforts during that time. We are also pleased that our greens surfaces have aged and become more receptive over the past year, allowing for a pure roll and consistency throughout the year with lessening the threat of exposure during the summer months.

Some areas that have continued to experience the growth of our Membership is in the tournament calendar. In response, we have added a second Member-Guest that will be conducted exactly the same as the normal September event. Invitations for this year’s Member-Guests will be sent to your home shortly, so please be on the lookout. Separately, the Club’s website is another great source of this information, including updated menus, monthly calendars as well as your ability to review your statement.

Some of our other events (Ice Breaker, Turkey Shootout and Nightmare Before Christmas) this past year were also well-subscribed, so the limitation of guests in these events will be the new protocol until the Member demand has been satisfied.

As the new year is upon us, we offer the reminder of the Augusta National Women’s Amateur will again be held in late March. Correspondence on the topic has been mailed directly to you from our friends at the Augusta National, but we are happy to answer any questions that you might have.

Finally, in an effort to celebrate the successes of our team…I a sk that you join me in congratulating our Director of Golf, Mike Rymer, on his Merchandiser of the Year Award. This honor is given on behalf of the PGA of America, and specifically in the state of Georgia in the Private Club sector. Mike’s management and his staff’s presentation of our golf shop has earned him this year’s award and we could not be more proud.

We look forward to seeing each of you throughout the year and again, we thank you for your continued support of our teams.
