Over the last 12 months the club has continued to operate sufficiently and at an expected level of service. The board of directors have been pro-active in cutting expenses while not cutting member services. In the pro shop, Bob Ward has implemented new ideas and programs for both the adult and youth golf program. Additionally, Link Hills Golf Academy has been formed and is a new way to provide information and instruction via Facebook and social media. We are committed to continue building golf play as well as the junior golf program at Link Hills. In the clubhouse, Jack Wilson and Jeremy Bouck have introduced new dining menus and new activities have been scheduled to offer . Over the coming summer months members will have the opportunity to attend events such as the "newmember" welcome event, Family bingo nights and Pool activities. The member guest gala on July 30-August 2 is traditionally the highlight of the summer season and plans are being finalized to make it the biggest and best yet! Additionally, Marshall Brown and his staff continue to provide the BEST golf course in Greene County. Not only in terms of playability, but also condition. Link Hills is fortunate to have a premier Robert Trent Jones golf course playable virtually year round. The job that Marshall and his staff do with a limited budget is impressive. The success of Link Hills is only possible due to the continued support of YOU our valued member. We are also very fortunate that our corporate partners have decided that LHCC is worth the investment to the community and to their business as well. Over the summer months as activities and events are scheduled at the club for your use, please consider attending and patronizing these events to help defray the associated cost. These events are planned to provide our members with extra social opportunities exclusive to club membership. Also please be mindful for the club's business success, monthly billing statements should be paid timely and maintained in good standing. This is essential to pay our suppliers and continue to provide activities for member use. Bob Ward [email protected] Again, thank you for your continued support of LHCC, and we look forward to a great summer of activities and fellowship together! Jack Wilson [email protected] Sincerely, Kevin Kinser Clubhouse 638-3114 www.linkhills.com Pro-Shop 639-2961 Hospitality News Happy June!

As everyone is aware, our bermuda turf is still coming in slowly. In an attempt to fast forward our growth we have been spiking all the fairways to increase air movement and water retention for the root zones, and watering as much as possible. With all this in mind, as of May 27th, we have had 1.53 inches of rain and temperatures in the mid to upper 80,s. All of these factors make it hard to have healthy turf, especially considering our situation with our winter kill areas. I have been working with the greens committee, to address what may be done to some of our weak fairway areas. We applied a preemergent herbicide to our course in early spring while all bermuda areas were still in their dormancy period. This is common practice however, we have not experienced weather like we have had for the past 2 years. With that being said, since a barricade preemergent was applied, we cannot Sprig- Sod- into these areas. We will be trying to seed into some of these areas with hopes of some germination, but I cannot at this point guarantee any results. At this time we need mother nature on our side for awhile, instead of working against us. We will be starting to slice some seed into some of these areas the 2nd week of June in hopes of seeing some results. Please remember we are not the only golf course experiencing these problems, it is every where. In a nut shell, my staff and I will continue to provide you the best playing conditions possible.
