Mission Statement

Timuquana will offer its members, their families and guests exceptional social, golf and recreational experiences, which foster enduring friendships and preserve community.

It’s hard to believe my year of presidency is coming to a close. It has been a challenging but rewarding tenure with several successful Long Range Capital Projects completed during the year. Notably, the reopening of the golf course in August ahead of schedule, and renovations to the Golf Shop, Heritage Hallway, and restroom facilities, further enhancing our Club’s ambiance. In addition, we instituted an essential change to the new member vetting/invitation process to better manage the high demand and resultant waitlist of potential new members. Finally, I am quite proud of our official launch of the Timuquana Cares Employee Foundation and the excellent support from our membership in funding this endeavor to help our staff in times of need.

In this, my last letter to the membership, I would like to extend my sincere appreciation and gratitude to my fellow 2022-2023 Board of Governors and all the committee volunteers. Thank you for dedicating your time, valuable input, and constructive feedback to reviewing and adapting policies and creating new programs for the membership. Working with you all has been a privilege and an honor.

Special thanks and recognition are in order for three gentlemen who will be rolling off the Board in April following their three years of service. Spencer Cummings has positively impacted his role as House Chair as we transitioned the Food & Beverage Committee to the House Committee in 2022, broadening its scope to include Clubhouse-related policies. The Committee has successfully reviewed Clubhouse Customs & Traditions and made minor modifications to ensure the courtesies and values of TCC are consistently met by our members. In addition, their valuable input in Food & Beverage operations has continually helped improve the overall member experience over the last few years.

During his time as the Golf Committee Chair, Tom Bishop had a full plate and accomplished a great deal as well. Tom and the Committee had a challenging few years managing the boom in play following the pandemic and post-golf course construction. The Committee has navigated this demand by adapting guest policies, tee times, and tournament entry procedures.

Last but certainly not least, I’d also like to give special thanks to Mike Muldoon, our beloved Past President and current Chair of the Long Range Planning Committee, for his incredible persistence in navigating the inflation pressures seen during 2021 and for overseeing the various improvements that were made to the Driving Range and Clubhouse interiors. His love for this Club and tireless efforts to foster our great culture are second to none. We are thankful to these three men for their leadership, investment of time and talent, and significant contributions over these past three years.

I greatly appreciated and enjoyed the opportunity to serve as your Club President. I have strived to “stay the course” of prudent fiscal management of Club assets while constantly trying to enhance our facility and member experience. I am proud of our accomplishments over the past 12 months, our dedicated and top-notch professional staff, and the excellent reputation this membership and Club enjoys within our community. As I turn the reigns over to Mike Oates as our incoming President, I thank you all for your support and look forward to seeing you around the Club as we celebrate our milestone 100th anniversary.

With sincere appreciation,

Jim Thompson

2022 - 2023 President

From the Membership Office

Kate Nolte, Director of Membership and Employee Engagement

Timuquana is a special place, and word continues to spread. We have 29 prospective members waiting to complete the application process. Categories include 17 House Social, eight Founder, three National, and one Clergy. Below is a refresher on the process in its entirety. Please reach out if you have any questions, or if I may be of assistance to someone you know interested in membership.

Membership Application Process:

SUPPORTING LETTERS

• The Board requires four (4) supporting letters for membership.

• Two (2) of the four (4) letters need to be from Founder members.

• A primary member must be identified and is responsible for ensuring the completion of the application process.

• The letters are to be submitted in the form of a completed “Sponsor Form” (available online) that includes an attestation by the sponsoring member of his or her thorough knowledge of the prospective member and their family. The form must be completed in its entirety by all four sponsoring members. In order to complete the Sponsor Form, the sponsoring member needs to spend a significant amount of time with the applicant. As a result, sponsors are encouraged to invite the applicant to play golf at the Club, come to dinner, or otherwise spend enough time with them to be able to vouch for the applicant’s suitability for membership.

DEPOSIT

• All categories (including legacies and reinstatements), with the exception of Founders, are required to provide a nonrefundable deposit of $2,500 as part of the application process. Founder applicants are required to pay a nonrefundable deposit equal to 10% of the current initiation fee. This amount gets credited to the member’s initiation fee upon joining. Deposits are refundable only when applications are rejected by the Club.

BACKGROUND/CREDIT CHECK

• All applicants are required to complete a background and credit check. The cost of the background and credit check is covered by the prospective member. A credit card authorization form is part of the application process and must be completed and included in the final submission to the Membership Office.

COMPLETED FILE

• All letters/forms, application, background check, and deposit are required when submitting an application to the Membership Office. Only complete application packages are accepted by the Membership Office. Once a full file is completed, and the deposit applied, the prospective member waits for availability of interviews with the Membership Committee.

INTERVIEWS

• As required, the Club schedules prospective member dinner interviews. Dinners are for the member and spouse (if applicable). These dinners are scheduled on the first Thursday of each month from 6:00–7:30 pm. Dinner is conducted by two members of the Membership Committee.

• The Membership Committee submits a recommendation to the Membership Office in advance of the following Board meeting.

BOARD COCKTAIL RECEPTION

• The Monthly Board Cocktail Reception continues when required as normally scheduled from 6:00–6:45 pm when candidates have completed the interview process. A maximum of four (4) prospective members are invited when a cocktail reception is scheduled.

The Future

We hope you are enjoying the fruits of our previous capital investments in the golf course, pool, and Pow Wow Room. Looking at future facility enhancement plans, we remain focused on creating a considerable and sustainable member value. The Club has much to celebrate within its first one hundred years, and together we can look toward a bright future.

This is a rare opportunity to sample this whiskey, as very few bottles have ever reached the U.S. It will be available by the ounce for $30 a pour.

From the Teaching Tee

Jim Goergen, Director of Instruction

As the new Director of Instruction, I am honored to be joining the Professional Staff and truly look forward to leading the instruction program. Since my first visit to Timuquana in the early 1990s, I have had a love for the course and the Club. TCC’s rich tradition, esteemed membership, and overall culture have held a special place in my heart for years.

Our immediate goal for the instruction program is to align the instructional offering with the ethos of the Club. A top-level club should offer top-level instruction, and I am charged with bringing the program upward.

I have a passion for helping anyone who loves this great game. I derive as much satisfaction from helping new golfers make solid contact as I do helping a plus-two handicap win the Club Championship. Whether you are brand new to the game or a player with vast experience, getting better requires a commitment. I hope to create a culture where members look to improve by committing to a plan for improvement over time. Every once in a while, “dial a prayer” works where we can catch lightning in a bottle and make a big difference in a player’s game with a one-off lesson. However, for the vast majority of players, seeing them repeatedly over time is the fail-proof option for tremendous improvement.

My personal mission in golf has been centered around building viable, fun, and competitive junior programs. Blanton’s capable staff and I will be committed to making the Timuquana Junior Golf Program the best junior program in the city and a bench-mark in the state. Our program will accommodate all junior golfers, from the casual player or beginner to the passionate junior chasing the dream of competitive golf. Meeting juniors where they currently are and helping them along their journey is one of the hallmarks of creating a successful program, and we are committed to this strategy.

As I have met some of the membership already, I’d like to say thank you for such a warm welcome. I look forward to meeting many others soon, and I am honored to be part of Timuquana Country Club.

Beginner Golf Camp

Tuesday–Friday, June 13–16 & July 11–14 9:00–10:30 am

Registration opens Tuesday, February 21!

Beginner Golf Camp is designed specifically for budding junior golfers. Campers will play fun games and drills to teach them the skills necessary to build a solid foundation in the game of golf. No experience is required, and all equipment will be provided. Ages 4–12.

Cost: Member, $150 Accompanied Guest, $180 Guests will be accepted based on availability.

From the Courts

Joe Mattingly, Director of Tennis

Tennis Tip: Returning a Doubles Serve

The

Proper Mindset

Whether your opponent serves and stays back or serves and runs to the net, the mindset must be the same. In both cases, avoid trying to play, what I call, the “Hit-Winners” mindset. This is where the player thinks everything they hit has to win the point. Players like this try to do too much with the ball and make too many unforced errors due to faulty thinking. Instead, adopt something more consistent. Think about getting the ball back and neutralizing your opponent’s serve.

A Word from The Pros

As we bid farewell to the winter months and look forward to a beautiful spring, we have an exciting schedule of tennis and pickleball events planned for you. The Doubles Club Championship will be held in April, along with a destination clinic trip to the Wild Dunes Resort in Charleston, South Carolina. Our junior after-school and adult inter-club programs are in full swing and remain very active. To see all Junior Clinics, Tennis and Pickleball Clinics, and Drop-In Round Robins, please view the full schedule on the Club website.

Additionally, please let us know if we can do anything to make your experience on the courts more enjoyable.

When Your Opponent Stays Back

If your opponent serves and stays back, you must master a deep cross-court return of serve. The key is depth, which forces your opponent to stay back and gives you more time to react to the next shot. Hitting deep tilts the percentages in your favor. You’re attempting to create pressure, not win the point outright through this method.

When Your Opponent Charges the Net

If your opponent is serving and running to the net, you must also hit the ball crosscourt, but this time you should keep the ball low at their feet. This method will make your opponent hit up at the ball, giving you a pop-up, which you can then put away. Remember, you are trying to create pressure, not hit a winner!

Conclusion

To summarize, you should return cross-court and deep when your opponent serves and stays back. When your opponent serves and runs to the net, you should return cross-court and low at their feet. Finally, in both cases, ensure you stay in a consistent mindset and not a “Hit-Winners” mindset.

Why Vary Your Workout?

By adding variation and changing exercises in your routine, you engage a new stimulus that creates more progress over time.

Benefits of Varying Your Workout

Routine:

• Prevents Overuse Injuries

• Stops Boredom

• Improves Physique

• Increases Strength and Performance

How to Vary Your Workout

Routine:

• Switch Up Your Rest Times

• Change Your Tempo

• Substitute a New Exercise

The Takeaway

Adding variety to your workout routine prevents boredom and keeps you motivated. It encourages your body to keep changing, progressing, and adapting. Your body can’t plateau if it is forced to work harder to keep up with these changes. Keep in mind that there needs to be some structure for progress to occur. How you play within the lines keeps you growing and advancing toward your goals.

Less Tech – More Sweat

In the United States, the number of teenagers affected by obesity has nearly tripled since the 1970s. From lack of exercise to lack of motivation, online gaming to minimal school resources, there are several reasons why today’s youth has fallen behind the curve when it comes to staying active.

Our Certified Youth Specialist, Kelvin Jones, wants to help reverse the problems facing today’s youth and encourage Less Tech - More Sweat! Through exercises and expert programming, Kelvin will help keep your kids motivated and engaged in sports, weightlifting, running, and more. Schedule a 30-minute complimentary fitness assessment for your child today. Available to both boys and girls, ages five & up. All fitness levels are welcome.

Modifications are available making this fun class suitable for all fitness levels. This class is held year-round in our heated pool.

Member Testimony:

“For years, I passed by the Timuquana pool on my way to the Fitness Center to work out and saw Tracy’s H2O Fitness class going on. It wasn’t until September 2021 that I decided to give it a try. Wow, immediately I was hooked! Every week since then, winter, spring, summer, and fall, the H2O Fitness class has been my favorite exercise program ever. It’s more than just water aerobics. Tracy incorporates strength training, core development, balance, coordination, and even memory and concentration exercises to specially selected, fun music. Every class is different, so it never gets dull. A bonus is the great group of friendly members who participate. The pool is heated and open year-round, and the setting is beautiful. Come join us and check it out.”
