A MESSAGE FROM YOUR GENERAL MANAGER

Thank you to everyone for the warm welcome to the Old North State Club The first several weeks have been great I am enjoying meeting all the members and listening to any concerns or answering any questions that you may have The transition should be a relatively short one. I am prioritizing items that need to be addressed and will be doing so relatively soon. My first priority was to find an experienced Food and Beverage Manager; so I would like to introduce William Davis as our newest addition in that role. Will brings many years of experience as a Chef and front of the house manager with Levy Restaurants and has worked with the Charlotte Bobcats, Charlotte Knights and at the Charlotte Motor Speedway.

I would also like to invite you to a General Managers Reception on Saturday, September 23 We will have complimentary hors d’oeuvres and the bar will be available during this time You will be able to meet many of our newer staff and managers Please call and let us know if you plan on attending, and also if you will be dining with us that evening as well

And finally, welcome back to the Old North State Golf Course – I am looking forward to welcoming our members over the Labor Day Weekend – It will be a great to tee it up again.

I look forward to seeing you around the club soon.

COOKIES OF THE MONTH

SEPTEMBER FRUIT & NUT COOKIE

EXECUTIVE SOUS CHEF AT WAKEFIELD PLANTATION

OCTOBER PUMPKIN ORANGE COOKIE

This cookie is my great-grandmother's fruit and nut cookie that my mother loved growing up. It's and "old school" recipe, which, probably came from her family. My mother remembers her Pappy cracking and picking the walnuts, and remembers that her Gram would put the cookies in a lard can, covered with a cloth soaked in cheap wine to keep the cookies moist, and also to keep my mother out of the cookies, because the lard cans were too hard to open.

Filled with pecans, candied fruit, and dates, these cookies can take on any add-ons you'd like, from red and green cherries or dates to chopped dried apricots, tart cherries, and/or currants.

Growing up around the Pennsylvania Dutch area, there was a lot of German style recipes that I got to try. During the autumn time when pumpkins came into season, there was a lot of pumpkin food going around. One place I worked at, my coworker would bring in two of my favorites; pumpkin rolls and pumpkin orange cookies I made sure to get both recipes from her before I moved down south Here is the cookie!

FROM THE KITCHEN

A NOTE FROM YOUR EXECUTIVE CHEF

Hello Everyone,

I hope everyone has been enjoying something delicious from our summer menu The peach season was shorter this year from Barbee Farms, but the tomatoes, okra, bell peppers, and some of the sweetest corn from Seven Sisters Farm was in abundance. I hope those who try the scallop dish enjoyed the pickled corn. That was one of the most surprising creations we came up with this summer. I believe the Chef’s Feature menu during dinner service offered a nice change during the golf course closure It gave the culinary team a chance to explore and express their talents and skills with a menu with more frequent menu changes then we normally do here at ONSC

We are preparing to present the fall menu with some tasty dishes and a few classics, mid-September. Even though we will still be working with some late summer harvest, we are looking forward to the fall harvest of beets, cabbage, collard greens, swiss chard, butternut squash, apples, sweet potatoes, cranberries, duck, lamb, persimmons, and turnips I really hope you all are enjoying the hard work of Seven Sisters Farm and other local farms from around the Triad surrounding area

We appreciate every member and guest that has a bite to eat by the lake. We are trying are best to grow as chefs and I hope it shows.

A NOTE FROM YOUR DIRECTOR OF GOLF

Greetings Old North State Members,

It’s hard to believe summer is almost over However, we have a busy and exciting fall ahead of us at ONSC! After six months of renovations, the golf course is about to reopen We appreciate your patience during the “Tear It Up” process We are as excited as you are to see our members enjoying the course again.

We have numerous “new”, or updated things to look forward to including:

New golf cars with GPS, yardage tracking

New greens - get ready for speed!

New bunkers

New tees and yardages

New pin placements

New flags

The Golf Team is looking forward to a full slate of events in September, October, and November. The Men’s Member-Guest has a record number of teams registered We will also host a Ladies’ Member-Guest, Club Championships, Tough Day, and a 1-Day M-G just to name a few

The Golf Shop is heavily stocked with new apparel for men and women, shoes, and equipment that WILL make you play better!

Please let us know if there is anything we can do to meet your golf related needs

See you soon, Justin Mathers, PGA

A NOTE FROM YOUR COURSE SUPERINTENDENT

Most of you know about the premium putting surface of the tifEagle greens and the consistency of the capillary concrete bunkers but there is more We improved the aesthetics and playability while lowering maintenance cost on almost every hole by reducing the size of our formal mulch beds Over the last thirty years many of the trees in our formal beds have grown into other trees creating health issues for the trees and the surrounding turf We removed trees that did not impact a hole’s strategic

integrity and then reshaped the mulch bed around the remaining trees. We have been reducing our mulch bed areas over the years but being closed gave us the opportunity to do more than usual The wait is almost over and I’m confident you're gonna love the golf course!

See you on the course!

A NOTE FROM YOUR DIRECTOR OF SPORTS & WELLNESS

I am thrilled to be back at ONSC in the role of Director of Sports & Wellness. The warm welcome back from members has been truly humbling and appreciated! For needs in the areas of tennis, pickleball, bocce, group fitness classes, personal training, massage therapy, and the aquatic center, I'm your guy I will either take care of anything for you in those areas or point you in the right direction to someone who will

I look forward to seeing you around the club!

TENNIS, PICKLEBALL & BOCCE

Please use your member portal to reserve courts online Online reservations take priority over walk-ups This short step lets our staff know that you're coming so we can serve you better It also helps us keep track of our facility usage

Extensive court maintenance has been completed in order to get our courts back to quality you have come to expect There are projects still being completed, and I hope that you can see a positive difference in your playing surface.

To help keep our courts in pristine condition, please wear court specific shoes when playing tennis and pickleball. Running shoes, while comfy, tear up our courts worse than court shoes

The bocce courts are open for play. Equipment can be checked out at the Tennis Shop during business hours or inside the Activity Center after business hours.

There's now a Keurig coffee pot in the Tennis Shop Stop by and get that last pep in your step before you step on court.

RECREATIONAL NEWS

A NOTE FROM YOUR DOCKMASTER

As summer is fading and fall approaching, the air is a little less humid and a little crisper. The busy lake calms to a more peaceful and tranquil scene Fall boating is probably the most enjoyable boating time of the year The days aren’t as hot, but the water is still warm enough to enjoy swimming and wake surfing and the fishing gets better.

Also, fall gives a great opportunity to correct any issues with your trailer you may have. We have already begun doing some trailer repairs If you need any work done on your trailers from new wood and carpet, to new winch straps, or wheel bearing, please contact the marina (336-461-4456) so we can schedule it Our hours of operation will change as we enter the fall, I will list them below Get out there and enjoy the lake during this amazing time. Before you know it, winter will be here! We will also start winterizing after Labor Day, so if you don’t plan to use your boat or Jet Ski during the fall and winter months, give us a call and we will schedule it to be winterized for the season Thank you hope everyone has a great rest of the summer and early fall!

ONS COMMUNITY - OUR BOND WITH CISMC

COMMUNITY IN SCHOOLS MONTGOMERY COUNTY

Back in 2005, Jim Matheny w on That was when he was asked the question, “What can you do to mportant education is for the future of a community and to learn a l in the educational development of Montgomery County and one mmunities in Schools into Montgomery County schools and guarante ed Jim was the muse and Sharon was the bridge builder. Today, many Montgomery County organizations partner with Communities in Schools. Among them, the ONSC & the Uwharrie Point Community proudly align with CIS as partners in more ways than one

FUNDRAISING: The ONSC has generously hosted an annual golf tournament for 12 years. For the past 10 years, the ONS WGA also hosts a smaller golf day/ luncheon to help with Back to School supplies and needs The UP community partners with The Blood Connection to raise $20 per blood donation and the UP Men’s Bible Study hosts snack drives for the CIS Backpack Pals to assist students with food insecurity

COMMUNITY OUTREACH: CIS collaborates with Partnership for Children and the Montgomery County Food Distribution Center The Uwharrie Point community adopts families during the holidays with Partnership’s Tree of Hope campaign There are many volunteer opportunities during this campaign and also helping with food sorting and distribution at the MC Food Distribution Center.

MENTORING PROGRAMS: The UP Community has many volunteer opportunities within the schools An ounce of prevention goes a long way on a child who needs a little extra attention There are mentor groups that carpool to specific schools and spend quality time with students who can benefit from a little one on one or group time with someone who cares. There are opportunities to assist with programs like Real World Real Money, an annual program that places students in the reality of daily expenses and the value of a good education Through CIS, we strive for each child to realize their potential in school and beyond There are various opportunities to help students attain success so consider jumping in!

If you are interested in volunteering with CIS, please reach out to Christy Modzelewski at mrschriski@icloud com or (803)518-408
