GOLF COURSE SUPERINTENDENT Grant Suderman

Dear Members,

Loch Lloyd Country Club has completed a $250,000 capital expense project to replace many of the critically damaged golf course cart paths. The plan was executed in five phases to accommodate golf course access throughout the project The final phase on holes #5 & #16 was installed on January 27. In February all repaired paths plan to be open for traffic. The damaged turf surrounding the newly constructed paths will be sodded or seeded at a later date when weather first allows

REPAIRED CART PATHS ON HOLE #3 LEADING TO GREEN

Please abide by all signage and roped off areas redirecting traffic to protect newly sodded and/or seeded areas We thank you for your patience during this project as we remain committed to providing Loch Lloyd Country Club with the best golf experience in Kansas City. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns at grants@lochlloyd com

Operations Director

Happiest of New Years to all of our Members. I hope this first month of 2023 has been filled with health, happiness, and forward progress on those resolutions

When I took this position, my fellow associates told me "things slow down at the Club for the first couple months of the year" I would like to publicly say they were lying While I do not see as many of my regular "favorite" members (you know who you are), the team, the pace and the internal operations are at full steam ahead Taking the colder temperatures and turning them into an opportunity to focus on much needed "behind the scenes" organizational preparedness Goal setting, aligning our Food & Beverage Associates on initiatives to ensure exceptional service, housekeeping, and preparing for the 2023 "season" which includes producing a year-long calendar that will enable our members to mark their calendars and attend the fun that is Loch Lloyd Country Club This is in the final stages of approvals and I anticipate it will hit your mailboxes before Love Day

To further prove my point that there is no slow time at Loch - the Club has hosted some really top notch activities in January We introduced our first FAMILY GAME NIGHT that took 1st Place with a lot of members. This event will be hosted every quarter and it is our hope Stan Perry hula hoops at all of them The kitchen unveiled Taco Tuesday - which will be the first Tuesday of each month A successful event with some feedback from associates and members that will better equip us for February's Taco Madness (don't miss Claudia's Enchilada's and yes - I know that isn't a taco but trust me... you WILL thank me for this - and PITCHERS of margaritas). 21 & Over Bingo was a true BINGO and hit the mark with laughs, lottery tickets, and maybe a drink or three. The Chinese New Year was welcomed with an incredible buffet from Chef Nic and rumor has it one of our members said "best Chinese food I have ever had" and Kids Eat Half Price is back the last Wednesday of each month If all of this isn't enough, we hosted our first of two New Member Mix & Mingles on January 24th. What a perfect evening to celebrate the newest members of the Loch Lloyd Family. Having our “experienced (aka - low handicap)” members help us welcome the newest editions to Loch Lloyd is simply incredible The foyer was filled with the truest sense of community and that is something that can’t be bought or replicated. I am proud to be a tiny part of such an amazing group of people.

Last update is on our Winter Hours We heard from a handful of members that that earlier close time on the weekend's as a little bit of a... shall we say... buzz kill? In response, we modified Winter Hours to allow more time for fun on the weekends

Monday's | Closed

Tuesday - Saturday | 11:00AM - 10:00PM

Sunday | 11:00AM - 4:00PM

I am looking forward to 2023 with great optimism and can’t wait to see what it holds!

Take care and stay well,

HANNAH'S HIGHLIGHT

So, you did Dry January (or maybe you were like me and did a “damp January”), and you’re ready to restock your wine cabinet Cupid has struck at the Club and here’s a couple wines I’m lovin’ on this month:

Orin Swift, Abstract is a red blend of Grenache, Petite Sirah and Syrah primarily from the hillsides of Sonoma It is earthy and a little spicy which makes it easy to pair with your meal preps (if you’re still doing that) Perfect with grilled meats and has the name and reputation to back to it up You can buy at the club this month for $36/bottle!

Maybe you’re still trying to watch your calories while drinking For 95 calories per glass, Liquid Light Blush Rose is sure to help you stay on track with your calorie goals. From Washington State, Liquid Light has a very vibrant spectrum of citrus, tropical, and orchard fruit flavors. On sale the month of February for $11/bottle. Did I mention it’s pink? Perfect touch for your Galentine’s Brunch that you’re hosting.

Starting this week, we will be bringing back Wine Wednesdays Every Wednesday we will be featuring specials on certain bottles and ½ price bottles and glasses of our house wine I know the snow and the cold has kept you inside, so come hang out with us and let’s taste these great wines we have!

As always, if you’re not feeling any of the above, give me a call and I can help you find something you like!

LLLGA INFORMATION

While the KC weather has yet to be hospitable to golf, it didn’t stop us from getting together this past month! Seventeen of us gathered in the 20th hole on Jan 12th to catch up and enjoy some food and drink And, sixteen of us also gathered for lunch on Jan 25th With Wednesdays being our usual 18-hole play day during the golf season, Jeremy Dear, our Head Golf Professional, stopped by to say hello and talk golf with us!

While these gatherings were originated with the intent of keeping the LLLGA members connected throughout the winter months, we welcome any Loch Lloyd member who is a past, present or would-like-to-be golfer! It’s a pleasant way to spend an afternoon or evening. And, as we ready ourselves for golf, the lunches also provide an opportunity to address some of the questions you may sometimes have when faced with a bad lie or penalty situation Not to mention knowing when and how to apply those perplexing golf rules! But, we’re not all about golf and we usually have lots of other things to chat about!

Don’t miss out on the fun! RSVP to join us for our February events. We’ll be once again gathering for Happy Hour starting at 4:30 on Feb 9th and Lunch at noon on Feb 22 Details and reminders for each are sent to LLLGA distribution list. If you’re not already on the LLLGA distribution list, email me at wilmacollado@outlook.com to let me know you’ll be there. It’s an enjoyable way to connect with friends and neighbors, and use up some of that quarterly dining minimum!
