CLUB UPDATE AND NEW MEMBERSHIP A NOTE FROM YOUR CLUB MANAGER
WELCOME NEW MEMBERS
Hello Old North State! Hopefully, by the time you read this, the pollen has left us and you are now ready to get outside and enjoy a busy spring at Old North State. Just this past month we were able to welcome in members, their families, and their friends for Easter Brunch and served over 150 meals in the clubhouse! While we may not be completely “out of the woods yet”, it was a great day and provided some hope of great things to come after such a long period of uncertainty. As we hopefully continue to enjoy continued relaxed restrictions, we will be announcing any changes to our events through club emails and on our social media platforms. Some of these events take a great amount of planning and simply cannot be pulled off last second so we must plan them under the current circumstances.
Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and check the club emails so you are up to date on everything going on at the club. Here's to a great year at Old North State and on behalf of all staff, we look forward to seeing you soon. Brian Pabst Club Manager

We loved the feeling of leaving the work-day world on the outside of the gates,” Jim says. “Nancy and I have been environmental volunteers for years, we have done everything from simple recycling, to having our own solar power system. We worked with the US Green Building Council and have sponsored or worked a booth at Earth Day events for years. I served on the Board of Directors for the NC USGBC.
