AGRONOMY UPDATE

Dear Gallery Members,

During the month of February, expect to see a significant increase in activity with regards to the upcoming LIV Golf tournament. Hospitality tent structures and camera towers will be constructed in various locations throughout the South Course. Desert de-vegetation and site-line clearing efforts are nearly complete. One of the major items occurring during the month is the removal of the bermudagrass contamination from our bentgrass green surfaces. Contamination removal will focus primarily on those areas of the greens where pins are typically located to provide for a more consistent, puttable surface.

Perimeter edging of each hole is scheduled to commence to hopefully deliver a more clean and defined desert/grass interface, similar to the tees. Anticipate continued fertility efforts consisting of both granular applications and foliar applications throughout the month on both the North and South Courses Walk-path re-grading and repair is underway Once completed, walk-paths and tee edges will be capped with decomposed granite and compacted

rth Course fairways, approaches and roughs ll treated with Prograss to mitigate existing nua pressure Subsequent applications of t (growth regulation) will be applied to e poa populations through spring Clean-up continue on hole 12 and will move to the wash e 2 when completed

GOLF AT THE GOLF CLUB AT DOVE MOUNTAIN

Good Day Members,

We are off to a great start to 2023 at the Club. Although it has not been a great weather year yet, we are sure this Spring will have plenty of beautiful sunny golf days for you all to enjoy.

January is always when we have our Members Appreciation Week and this year was the best one yet. We want you all to know that we appreciate you everyday-however this week allows us to truly celebrate with you all through some fun events and activities. We hope you all enjoyed it this year and we look forward to doing it again next year.

The golf courses continue to be in fantastic shape, probably the best I have personally seen them in the past 7-8 years. We are delighted to provide the quality of golf course conditioning that we know you all deserve and we expect our conditions to continue to improve on the golf courses This is great news as we head into our busy Member Events season In February we have our Ladies Invitational (quickly becoming one of our most attended events), our Men’s & Women’s Club Championships, as well as our 1st ever Dove Men’s Ryder Cup We are looking forward to hosting our Men’s & Women’s Member-Guest events in March & April as well! Remember, if you have any questions about events, contact our golf professional staff

The team is delighted to have Adam Hilsinger as our new manager at the Members Grill & Cayton’s dining areas Adam came to us at the beginning of the year and has drastically improved the Food & Beverage employee morale as well as immediately improving the entire restaurant team’s member engagement and member dining experience Adam will continue to work with us on improving our members dining experience and menu opportunities throughout the Spring

Remember, this Spring will be busy, but is always a great time to play golf - whether it is in Men’s Day, Ladies Day, one of our groups, 9 & Wine’s, or any of the other Member Events Finally, we hope you continue to enjoy our ½ price Member Guest Days on Wednesdays

Thanks for being a member of our Club

GOLF CORNER

Happy February! I always hope that this time of year gets us out of the frost delays and into the warm afternoons! It seems that Winter has a little bit to say about that, so we appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as we navigate the colder temps.

January is always a slow month as it pertains to member outings, however this January we did have some action!

During our Member Appreciation Week we hosted numerous events and were so excited by the participation. One of those events was our Putting Contest and Long Putt Challenge. During this event we had members who participated in a 100 foot putt for the chance to win a $1,000 credit! Amazingly we had two members who were able to make the putt and celebrate with our members and staff! Our two winners were John Emory who made the putt on his first attempt (2 max) and also finished tied for first in our putt-putt competition The second player to make the putt was non other than our 8 year old putting extraordinaire John Brandstaetter! John dropped the putt from 100 feet and is quoted as saying “I just tried to hit a good putt” and “Wow, that was a great putt”!!! The response from the crowd and from John and his family was heart warming and made for an incredible afternoon Please see the videos here to watch the moments for yourself

Looking forward to February and March we have a ton of Member Events and some Majors coming around the corner. Below is a breakdown of the upcoming events and dates to keep in mind. Please reach out to the Golf Shop to sign up for any event on our schedule:

Upcoming Events:

Feb 10th/11th – Men’s and Ladies Club Championships –Open to Sign Up

On Saturday, January 28th a reception was held at The Gallery to learn about the supportive connection between The Gallery Golf Club at The First Tee Tucson, a youth development organization that teaches life skills through the game of golf. Last year, Members raised funds to purchase a van for First Tee through the "Drive for a Van" charity campaign The goal was originally $30,000, but our wonderful Members surpassed that goal and raised $51,250!

On the Saturday the van finally made its debut! The van is used during the numerous equipment pick up days (like the very successful one held at The Gallery last year) The van is also used to carry tournament support materials for them as they compete at venues throughout the Greater Tucson Area (including, again, at The Gallery).

The Gallery looks forward to hosting the Jim Trapp Memorial Charity Challenge Benefitting First Tee - Tucson on Wednesday, March 22nd 2023 (1:00pm shotgun) Sign up is now open on ForeTees or by calling the Golf Shop today!
