Dear Members, October has arrived and the golf course continues to hum. As COVID has turned our worlds upside down, golf remains busy and constant and it’s been great to see. Congratulations to our Match Play and Four-Ball winners. We had the greatest participation in both tournaments that we have ever had. Maybe the pandemic keeping everyone home from work had one positive outcome. Thanks to all who participated in the TaylorMade and Callaway demo days. Both were very successful. Let’s hope the new equipment helps your game! SEAN HANNA DIRECTOR OF GOLF seanh@lochlloyd.com
Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 31st. On that Saturday, the golf course will be playing a little more difficult than normal as we host our 7th Annual Ghostly Greens event. Jeff Steen and his Golf Course Maintenance team will set pins in some tricky or “ghostly” positions. There is a $20 optional game for all who wish to participate. See details below and be sure to sign up. I want to take a moment to thank Aaron Spradley, our Assistant Golf Professional. Aaron has taken a position for the winter in Naples, Florida. He will be working at Naples Grande Golf Club from October through April and will rejoin us here at Loch Lloyd just in time for the 2021 Scotty.
Please remember to repair ball marks on the greens!

This fun event is a great way for Director of Golf Course Maintenance, Jeff Steen, to get “revenge” on all of us by setting the course up with “extreme” pin locations. Jeff and his team get to set pins wherever they like on this one Saturday in October. Players beware ... pace of play may be a little slower! There is a $20 optional game for those who wish to get in on the “spooky action.” Bring a guest for $75 (plus the additional $20 if they want in the game).
