PREVIEW
See details on page 2.
Welcome Back! We are excited to begin the 2014 season in Lake Toxaway. After a chilly winter, I am glad to see the sun shining and the trees beginning to put out new growth. The past few weeks have seen a flurry of activity, with staff getting the club ready for your return and finalizing plans for a season full of events that you are sure to enjoy. This season preview provides a copy of the 2014 golf, tennis, croquet, and fitness schedules, as well as other favorite events that you may want to mark on your calendars. More details will follow in our first newsletter later this month. Our 2014 golf season officially began today, and the Pro Shop is now open daily. Our first event of the season will be our annual Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 19, with food and fun for the whole family. Our annual Easter Brunch will be held in the Main Dining Room on Sunday, April 20. More information and a menu for both events are available on page 2. The Toxaway Room will be open for lunch daily from 11:30am to 2:30pm beginning Friday, April 25. Our regular evening dining will begin on May 9, with Friday Friends starting at 6:00pm, followed by dinner from 6:30pm to 8:30pm. Beginning May 10, The 19th Hole will be open daily from 11:30am to 6:30pm, with the bar menu available each afternoon from 2:30pm to 6:30pm. A complete listing of dining hours for this season is provided on page 7. As always, you can make reservations for evening dining and our special events by calling the club at (828) 966-4020 or logging into our club’s website at laketoxawaycc.com. Coming up in May is our Kentucky Derby Party, which was very popular last year. I hope everyone will plan to attend our Welcome Back Party on June 13. I look forward to seeing each of you soon in Lake Toxaway. David Dew, CCM, CCE President
