Season’s Greetings!

It has been such a great pleasure seeing you all at our most recent Summer Concerts, Member Mixers, and around the Club this year. You are why we are here, and we are just so grateful to you all. Frankly, we wish we had more folks just like you!

It’s hard to believe that it is already that holiday season time of the year. Why not share your love of the Club with your family, friends, and colleagues this season by giving “The Gift of Membership?”

CLUB UPDATES

James Paige | VP of Club Operations

We appreciate all the Members who participated in the great October programming around the Club We hosted our Couples Championship, Superintendent’s Revenge, KMGA East / West Ryder Cup, KLGA Star Wars, Titleist & Callaway Fall Fitting Days, KTA Mixed Doubles, Men’s Charity Tennis Classic, and Member Happy Hour at Links Landing. We will close out our programming this weekend with Family Movie Night, Walking Ghost Tours, and our Run the Fairway 5k I would like to thank our entire Kingsmill team for putting together a great calendar of events and executing them proudly.

As we move into November, I’d like to share a friendly reminder to please make reservations when planning to use our recreation departments: golf tee times, tennis court reservations, marina dockage or rentals, and spa services. Reservations allow our team to properly prepare for the day/week ahead and ensure adequate staffing and supplies to accommodate business levels Diane Wilks, our Director of Membership Services, and myself are available in the Eagles Membership Office to discuss any membership document information or policies. We ask that you schedule a meeting time with us so we may properly schedule our calendars

Thank you for being a Member, we look forward to seeing you around The Club.

AGRONOMY UPDATE

Jimmy Gabel | Director of Agronomy

October closed out with our final aeration processes on greens Greens on all three golf courses have been aerated using the DryJect service. This machine uses high pressure water streams to penetrate the root zone and inject sand into the soil profile The high pressure mixture does little damage to the surface while shattering the sub-surface and creating pore space for deeper root penetration. This fall aeration is vital to the health and playability of the greens.

November is leaf season! Yes, we enjoy the fall colors but for the agronomy staff, the clean-up is a daily process. Consistent leaf blowing and removal is the key to trying to keep our playing surfaces as clear as possible.

Thank You!

Jimmy

TENNIS

TENNIS

As fall is truly "falling", I will be joining on a full time basis starting November 3 That means a few things

1 I will be in the Tennis Pro shop on a regular basis, eager to meet with Kingsmill Members as I plan events going forward into next year;

2. Lessons and programs for both tennis and pickleball will be available for Members of all ages and skill levels, based on weather, of course

3 Matt Venable, Tennis Maintenance Coordinator, will soon be on site to help ensure continuous improvement in our courts and facility.

In the meantime, stay warm and well, finish high so the ball will fly, and have a Happy Halloween!

Thanks, Davy

FITNESS UPDATE

Charles Petronella | Sports Club Manager

Flexibility, core muscle strength, and balance these are just a few of the components that make up a great golf game. All of these (and more) are found in the practice of Yoga, and specifically, Yoga for Golf Many golfers find that a regular yoga practice provides a great complement to their golf game and provides the focus and harmony that allows them to play their best. If Yoga for Golf is something you are interested in to improve your game, sharpen your focus or just have fun with, classes are being offered on Tuesdays at 9:30 am in Classroom 2 Come join us and find out what Yoga for Golf is all about!

We look forward to seeing you at the Sports Club. Come and participate putting another puzzle together.
