TEE IT UP Members, Hard to believe we are now in May, and like you, looking forward to a fun summer of golf. The practice facility has been open for a few weeks now and good to hear scores are getting a little better now that you can warm up before playing. The finished product looks great and we appreciated your patience while it was closed. Like my grandmother use to tell me, good things come to those who wait. April was a fun month especially with the participation of juniors and women in our Operation 36 programs. We also had a great turnout for our inaugural Masters Putting contest and look forward to doing two more in May and June. It’s a perfect opportunity for the family to come out to the club for fun and enjoy a nice meal when you’re finished putting. With the PGA Championship this month at Southern Hills and the U.S. Women’s Open at Pine Needles in June, we will do our best to replicate holes from their respective courses. The months of May and June are fun months at RCC with the Men’s Member-Member, Memorial Day Tournament and Parent/Child Tournament. With the practice facility open, we will continue to promote fitting days and use of Trackman. In addition, we will have our first Couples Event on Friday, June 10th using a Caddy Shack theme for the night. Be on the lookout for more details. Let’s continue to properly repair ball marks, rake the bunkers and enjoy this great game. Look forward to seeing you at the club. Brian Kittler, PGA, VP Golf Operations McConnell Golf
Fun night for our inaugural Masters Putting contest. We did a nine hole event using the second nine of Augusta as our theme. Greatly appreciate the support and turnout as we all had a fun night.
