Club Happenings GRANDE DUNES MEMBERS CLUB KENTUCKY DERBY PARTY There was plenty of fast fun on Saturday, May 1, as Grande Dunes members gathered for a Kentucky Derby-themed party. The culinary team prepared prime rib, roasted chicken and grouper with a variety of delicious sides and desserts for everyone to enjoy. Nearly 88 people were in attendance for the festivities, many of whom dressed up and wore fun hats for the occasion. The race was streamed on the big screen in the ballroom and members cheered Medina Spirit on to victory.
THE CARDINAL BY PETE DYE PAR 3 CONTEST Although Augusta National did not host its Par 3 Contest this year due to social distancing protocols, the team at The Cardinal by Pete Dye decided the show must go on and hosted their own version of the event. Nearly 44 participants gathered on Wednesday, April 7, to compete in a 9-hole competition, with winners crowned in gross and net divisions. After golf, the group enjoyed appetizers, cocktails and fellowship in a socially distanced manner on the veranda.
