Hello from the golf shop. Summer is here and hopefully the forecast for an above average hurricane season does not have an impact on us. Also hoping for some regular rain fall after an extremely dry spring.
As normal, both courses will receive two 5- to 6-week closures, and we will always have one course in good shape to play all summer. This is a great time for our courses to recover from what is always a busy season here at HP. Year to date through the end of April we have played approximately 54,000 rounds of golf. Considering our total budget for the year is 94,600 rounds, that means we play 57% of our yearly rounds in the first four months of the year and the remaining 43% of rounds through the next eight months.
Again, we cannot thank Greg Kreisch and his staff enough for providing us with such great playing conditions.
We’re excited to host a couple of the FSGA one-day events here this summer. The first event is scheduled for Thursday, June 12; and the second on September 4. Sign up is now open at fsag.org and all members with a GHIN handicap are eligible to play.
Our next summer golf event is the July 4th scramble. Look for an email from Golf Genius for event details and sign-up instructions. We have been working on the calendar for next season. See below our current schedule of Major Club events for the 2025-26 season:
November 10: Ladies’ Member Guest
December 7: Christmas Scramble
December 12-14: Men’s Member Guest
February 1: Mixed Club Championship
March 14-15: Men’s & Ladies Member-Member
March 27-28: End of Season Tent Party Scramble
April 11-12: Men’s & Ladies’ Club Championship
I hope everyone enjoys the remainder of the summer, and don’t forget to keep working on your game.
