Good day Salina Country Club, Thank you for a great October! The club had a great vibe and was filled with fun and laughter. Thank you for those of you that joined us for Fall Family Harvest this year. It was a cold day, so we appreciate you sticking it out! November is a busy month for us as we are getting into the holiday season. You are NOT going to want to miss a thing this month. -November 6th - National Nacho Day -November 14th - Passport Series: Brazil -November 16th - Campfire Night! -November 23rd - New Member Night -November 23rd - 1st Quarterly Wine Dinner– St. Francis Vineyards -November 28th - Thanksgiving Brunch -November 29th - Black Friday Proshop Sale! -November 29th - Family BINGO Night! (It's back!) Thank you for those of you that also dined at the club this month. We were happy to see a lot of new faces enjoying the experiences put forth. Again, the changes are still in progress. With that, we are extending our offer of the food credit into November. We will be tweaking the offer slightly, but it is still to your benefit! This month you will be receiving a voucher via mail based on your membership category. Please make sure you bring it with you when you join us in the outlets. We will honor this in the Men's Card Room as well if you dine off the Johnny's & Grill Room menus. We are taking reservations for Thanksgiving Brunch as well as Thanksgiving to-go orders! You will see communications on these, but you will be able to access everything through the Salina Country Club website as well. This year, we are finding ways to improve our holiday buffets and the experience you receive during the most important time of the year. Lastly, I'd like to welcome Taelor Hull to the Food & Beverage division as our new Banquet Manager. Many of you may know Taelor from dining in the restaurants. Taelor just recently returned to the club after taking some time away, but has come back to join us in enhancing our food & beverage offerings in the event capacity. Taelor will begin this endeavor in the beginning of November. Please congratulate her on her new role! We look forward to seeing you at the club. Chris

Fall Family Harvest

Thank you to everyone who

came out for Fall Family

Harvest! We hope you enjoyed

the turkey legs, hot cider, and

pumpkin races. We are

already planning for next year

and can’t wait to see the

costumes you come up with!

Thanks to all SCC members for a fun and successful golf season!

We had a great turnout for leagues, junior programs, ladies clinics and

couples events!

Don’t forget that there is still some good golf weather ahead, so don’t put

your clubs away just yet. Speaking of weather, this is the time of year

when frost delays can occur. If you have a morning tee time it’s always a

good idea to call ahead to the Pro Shop to check on course conditions or

you can check out the weather real time through our website salinacountryclub.com using our

weather station app that feeds the weather straight from Salina Country Club. We will do our best to

accommodate everyone if a delay occurs.

We are going to try something different this year for our Blowout Sale. This year we are going to have

an all-day SUPER BLOWOUT SALE in the Golf Shop on Black Friday, November 29th from 8:00

a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Everything in the shop will be marked down starting at 30% OFF and going all the

way to 75% OFF!!! That includes Golf Clubs, Range Finders, Oakley

Sunglasses, FootJoy Apparel, Shoes, Socks, Golf Balls, Golf Gloves,

Hats, Golf Bags, you name it we have it on sale! Also, after you are

done with all of your shopping why not bring up the entire family to

our Family Bingo Night on Black Friday! We hope to see you on the

golf course and on Black Friday!

Up to Par The weather is a funny thing. We went from Summer to Winter

in a week with not many days of Fall. I guess this is Kansas

weather and we are just along for the ride. The leaves have

turned colors and have started to fall.

The crew is trying to make the course playable despite the

windy days, and snow. The golf course had a pretty good year

besides the greens taking a hit from a disease that we normally

don’t see. The heavy and frequent rains contributed to shorter

roots which caused the greens to be more susceptible to this

particular disease. The shortened fall and cold temperatures

limited our growing weather to recover the greens as I had hoped, but the greens will come back. The

damage is towards the outer edge and we will place the flag away on those couple holes that are

affected. The fairways did great this year and I am already excited for the next.

The tees will be an area of focus next season after our fairway project to increase the quality of that

area of the course. We will mainly be re-sodding tees to zoysia and leveling them so they can all be

the same type of grass. The tree work will continue throughout the winter months, removing trees

and also raising low lying branches to improve the look of the course. The crew did a great job behind

#13 green allowing more sunlight to reach the green. We plan to do the same with #5 green to allow

more sunlight which should help the approach at the same time.

The work we do this time of year makes a big impact on the future of the course and I feel the course

is finally in a good position that we can do some of the projects we want to do, rather than doing the

ones we need to.

Thank you and I hope to see you on the course soon.

We are looking for one last

chance to sit out on the patio in

front of the fire pit! At SCC’s

Campfire Night on November

16th, you’ll be able to bundle up

time this year. Join us for s’mores,

drinks, and enjoy Tony Bowell on

Happy November!

Thank you all for a wonderful kick-off to the holiday season beginning with Fall Family Harvest. Between the

pumpkin races and awesome costumes, a great time was had by all! I can’t wait to experience Thanksgiving,

Christmas, and New Years Salina Country Club style. We have plenty of fun events in store for you this

November including National Nacho Day, Campfire Night, and Black Friday BINGO, to name a few.

Don’t forget about our “Play Now Pay Later” promotion which began October 1st and has certainly caught the

attention of some future members. This is a deal you can’t pass up: No initiation fee and no dues until March

1st, 2020! Don’t forget about the SCC Referral Program running through December 31st, 2019. Refer a friend,

family member, or business associate and you can receive up to $500 club credit! More details are listed on the

last page of the newsletter.
