Putting
A
s we move into winter and temperatures prevent many of us from heading out to the golf course, take the opportunity to work on putting fundamentals in the comfort of your own home. I recommend these simple putting fundamentals. For right handers, have the ball placed slightly left of center, with eyes over ball and equal back/equal through with the putter head. Remember the motion of the putter includes shoulders, arms, hands, putter grip and putter head, all working at the same tempo. Putting is not just an activity for your hands if you’re striving for consistency. PGA and LPGA tour players have tempos of 62 to 72 beats per minute regardless of the length of putt they face. Remember: Short putt: Long putt:
Winter Rates December 1–March 31 Residents: $5 adult; $3 junior Guests: $7 adult; $5 junior Non-Resident: $10 adult; $7 junior

You can purchase an inexpensive app for your smartphone to help you. I recommend Metron. If you’d like help with your putting this winter, begin by having your putting stroke evaluated on our TOMI Putting Stroke Analyzer at the country club golf shop with PGA Director of Golf Stuart Smith for $40.

Holiday Scalloped Potatoes For the holidays: Here’s a great scalloped potato recipe that’s so easy and absolutely delicious. The bleu cheese gives it that extra zing that your guests are unable to identify but it gives the potatoes a great flavor. Serves 6. Ingredients
DIRECTIONS
4 cups thinly sliced potatoes 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons flour 1 1/2 cups milk 1 teaspoon salt 1 dash cayenne pepper 1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese 1/4 cup bleu cheese 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese, to sprinkle on top paprika
• • • • • • • • • • • •
In a small sauce pan, melt butter and blend in flour. Let sit for a minute. Add all of cold milk, stirring with a whisk. Season with salt and cayenne. Cook sauce on low until smooth and boiling, stirring occasionally with a whisk. Reduce heat and stir in cheese. Place half of the sliced potatoes in a lightly greased one quart casserole dish. Pour half of cheese sauce over potatoes. Repeat with second layer of potatoes and cheese sauce. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Top with some paprika for color. Bake uncovered for about 1 hour at 350 degrees.

Assessment Reminder
SNOW REMOVAL & STREET SWEEPING
Assessments are due on the first of each month and are overdue if not paid by the 30th of the month. A late fee of $25 will be posted to accounts not paid by the 30th of the month. Accounts 60 days past due will lose clubhouse and/or Canyon Nine privileges. Accounts 75 days past due will be sent to collections.
Snow removal and street sweeping within the sub-associations of the Village and the Vue are the responsibility of the sub-associations. Other private streets within the Association will be snow plowed when there is an accumulation of three inches on the street. Streets will be swept within a reasonable timeframe following the last snowfall to clear the streets of sand and debris. For snow removal and sweeping issues on city-owned streets, contact the city at 334-2099. Homeowners are responsible for maintaining the sidewalks adjacent to their property. The Association will plow the common area pathways/sidewalks along the three major parkways (Somersett, Del Webb and Somersett Ridge) if there is still snow on the walkways within 48 hours after the end of snowfall.
Assessment Payments Submitted Online (via Paylease) Did you know you can pay your monthly assessments online from the FirstService Residential website? Please be aware that payments submitted online go through a third-party payment processing company called Paylease. Payments submitted through Paylease will, and typically do, take up to three business days to be credited to your assessment account. Please keep this information in mind for last-minute assessment payments as payments received after the 30th are subject to a $25 late fee. Paylease does charge a fee for its service, and you can pay a larger fee to have the payment posted within one business day. If you would like information on automatic payments that are processed free of charge, please contact the association and request a ‘surepay’ application. You may also submit payments to the SOA office, via check or money order only.
Rules & Regulations Spotlight HOLIDAY DECORATIONS Holiday decorations may be installed up to 10 days before a holiday, and must be taken down within 10 days after the holiday, with the exception of the December holidays. December decorations may be installed at Thanksgiving and must be removed by January 31. The Association, Association common areas and commercial buildings are excluded from this provision.
Compliance Information To report a non-compliance, please email or call Nicole Drumm at ndrumm@mysomersett.com or 787-4500 x327. Please note that while we do investigate and document each complaint received, we cannot disclose the status of anyone’s account. Should a homeowner not respond to or correct a violation, he or she will be summoned to a hearing and could be suspended from the Club and assessed fines. At this time the Association has a policy not to enter a property unless it is bank owned, and then only to repair front yard landscaping.
