2022 JUNE GARDEN OF THE GODS RESORT AND CLUB MEMBER NEWSLETTER

Dear Members, After the much-needed heavy snow and rain during the latter part of May, I know we are all looking forward to more consistently sunny and warm temperatures in June. This past holiday weekend we saw some of you at the Summer Festival enjoying the many activities that were curated for your enjoyment. Continuing in that theme we have a full line-up of member events coming in June to include two Sunday Brunches, Music Under the Stars, a whiskey tasting, a Chef's Table Dinner and much more. In addition, Fitness Coaches from Strata Fit and Ben Spires, Head Golf Professional, are partnering on four upcoming dates to provide our members with ways to improve your golf game. Learn about mobility mechanics to improve your golf swing as we present Golf Mechanics and Mobility on the Kissing Camels Driving Range. Kids Club will have your children ready for Father's Day with instruction and materials to make the perfect gift - a handmade card coming straight from their heart. In addition, we have other events to make the day special for our incredible Dad’s. Our new Director of Racquet Sports, Greg Heartt, has been with us since May 15th and is already introducing new racquet clinics, lessons and camps for the summer. Greg will sometimes be sending out communications specific to our tennis community. If you haven't already and would like to receive racquetball specific communications, please send an email to tkalata@gardenofthegodsresort.com to be placed on this special mailing list. We are proud to announce the opening of three new outdoor tennis courts and six pickle courts located just south of the Vermillion residences. While we still have landscaping to install, as a result of the late winter weather, we do not want to hold up the enjoyment and utilization of the space, so the opening date for play will be June 8th. The courts may be reserved through the normal membership portal beginning today June 1st. Yours respectfully and with care, . James Gibson President and CEO

IMPROVE YOUR GAME GOLF MECHANICS AND MOBILITY Ben Spiers, Head Golf Professional is partnering with Stata Fit coaches to provide a unique holistic approach to improve your golf game. Golf mechanics are the number one factor in perfecting your golf swing. Equally important is mobility. Lack of joint mobility may be limiting your golf mechanics resulting in restricting the type and degree of movement your body can make in your swing, thus, lowering your potential. We are uniting the best of two worlds to present a one-hour clinic to help you develop your perfect golf swing at Kissing Camels Driving Range. This one-hour clinic will offer two classes to combine mechanics and mobility. During the first 30-minutes, the Strata Fit coaches will address golf specific movement and mobility. Then you will take your newfound mobility to the range/course for a 30-minute session with Ben Spiers where your swing mechanics will be addressed. Join us from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on Friday, June 17th and Mondays, July 11th, August 8th and 22nd to find your potential and improve your golf mechanics and mobility. 14 Register today by contacting Ben Spires at 719.636.2520 or bspiers@gardenofthegodsresort.com
