Hello Everyone

Sorry for the long gap between Muni Minutes as I had some website difficulties preventing me from being able to send Muni Minutes. The nice weather all but left us in October, and we have seen mostly cold and wet days not nice for golfing!! Lets face it 8 degrees feels like 3 doesn’t bring people to the course. With that being said I have decided that this Sunday Oct 28th will be the last day that the clubhouse will be open, I will leave the flags in as long as I can for anyone who wishes to walk and play after the 28th, but once the flags come out please stay off as the greens will be prep’d for winter. With the Oct 28th clubhouse closing date, it means that all lockers must be cleared out for the winter, as well as push carts removed from storage area and riding carts from compound by this date. I would personally like to thank everyone for another great year at the Muni, and I’m really looking forward to what next season brings as we continue to improve each year.  Continue to check for Muni Minute updates in the off season for info on early membership sales and I look forward to seeing everyone soon.

Hello Everyone

This week marks the end of our leagues for the season at the Muni!! I would like to take the time to thank everyone who participated in these leagues and helped make all of them a success. With that being said there is still plenty of good weather and golf season left, and I just thought I would pass along some final updates. We are currently in our Pay now Play now membership promotion for 2019, so if you know anyone who wants some free golf and also is looking to join the Muni in 2019 this is a great opportunity to save. We will be aerating our greens in the near future as it is a must do practice in the turf world, helping keep our greens in as great of shape as possible. It was scheduled on calendar to happen on Tuesday Sept 25th but do to equipment needs and availability we will be moving that date to Thursday Sept 27th instead. The course and range will remain closed that day but will be back open for play on Friday. October will also bring things like our Members club closing and our moved Annual General Meeting, with it’s new moved date, so please continue to check info boards in clubhouse for events around the course.

Lastly I would like to congratulate the SCC on there Romeo Cup victory this weekend as 12 players from each team went head to head in a Ryder cup style match. Our players from the Muni battled hard but came up just short in a 14 to 10 loss, as the SCC won the title for the first time in 6 years.

Upcoming Events

Sept 27th- Greens aeration- Course closed

Sept 29th- Army Navy Closing- 9am Shotgun

Sept 29th-  Muni Moles-  1pm shotgun

Oct 13th- Members Closing- 11am shotgun

Oct 18th- AGM- 7pm in clubhouse

Cheers

It is a sad sad day 🙁 As I sit here soaking wet after getting caught out on the course trying my best to get it ready or even playable for tonight’s men’s night, I’ve had to make the decision that this last big rain has the course completely unplayable and with more coming on the radar and the chances of it even drying up enough for walkers is slim to none that Men’s night will have to be canceled for the week!!! Our steak night will be bumped to next weeks meal and we will just have a 9 week second half… Please follow our facebook page for details on the course, carts, and range.

Just a quick reminder that today is the last day to sign up and pay for the Men’s club championship this Saturday and Sunday, late entries will NOT be accepted. So if you wish to play please make your way into the clubhouse prior to closing today!! Also please keep an eye on the men’s day blog and Facebook for what we are doing with men’s night with all this rain, as most likely the course will be extremely wet and carts could be a struggle.

What a whirl wind July, I still cant believe that it is August already!! July saw many things happen at the course with the start of our Jr. Program, Our Men’s Invitational, Sr Club Championship and even a Wedding. Congratulations to Craig Swartzentruber on winning the Sr. Club, and to Spencer and Tressa on your Wedding, Thank you so much for choosing the Muni to host your special day. We have also seen the opening of our new driving range tee and hitting mats, and the slow growth of the lawn bowling green ( I don’t recommend trying to grow grass in July when its 40 and not raining) but it is slowing coming along.

August brings more events to the Muni and I thought I better send out a reminder of these dates. Our Jr. Program will see 3 more dates till its completion date on Monday Aug 27th. Please remember that this Monday Aug 6th there will not be a Jr. Day due to the Holiday. Our Men’s and Ladies Club Championships will take place in August with details and sign up sheets on info board in clubhouse, along with another 9 and dine social night.

I hope to see lots of people out at these events, and here’s to hoping August doesn’t fly by like July.

Hello Everyone

Just a quick announcement that the lawn bowling and range tee construction is now complete, please remain off the area though as we continue to get the sod and seed to catch. It shouldn’t be long now though until we are hitting from our new tee deck!!! The range will remain closed this coming week on Monday and Tuesday as we extend the range netting at the back of the range. We apologize for the inconvenience but we need the added netting because of all you long ball hitters and with the range tee now being moved forward.

Our Auction  Scramble this Saturday has been canceled due to lack of interest, but we are still going to hold a 2 man scramble for the players who signed up starting at 11am!! So still come on out and enjoy some Saturday afternoon golf.

Lastly don’t forget about our Friday night social on June 29th, golf is available from 4pm to 6pm and dinner will be a chicken dinner catered by Black Angus. Cost is $20 per person and sign up deadline is Wednesday June 27th.

Hello Everyone

Construction is still well underway around The Muni but projects are starting to round into shape nicely. Our new concrete entrance way is now complete, looking good and usable, and the Lawn Bowling / Practice Range tee should see completion within a week. Thank you everyone for putting up with these inconveniences while we continue to improve our course.

We do have a couple upcoming events and I just wanted to send a quick reminder out about them. This Saturday is our Auction Scramble and at the moment we still need lots of players to sign up for this to run. Sign up deadline is this Wednesday night and I will be making the decision Thursday morning on whether the event will be a go or not.

We will also be hosting a social night of golf and dinner on Friday June 29th, anyone is welcome to sign up for this fun relaxed night at The Muni. Sign up sheet on information board in Clubhouse.

Lastly it is getting close to our annual Men’s invitational on Saturday July 7th. Fliers are posted around the clubhouse for this great day with a steak dinner and full prize table. * Sign up sheet at counter* Also make sure to check out the great deal offered my Mitchell golf club for Muni members who wish to play in their invite on Friday July 6th!!!
