This past month we again saw how you showed your interest and support as you participated in the Focus Groups. We were sorry that we did not have room for each of you that expressed a desire to share in these groups. However, we appreciate your willingness to serve. We thank 7LP3HGHQ each of you that shared in these 3UHVLGHQW groups. Your input was extremely valuable as we prepare a much needed survey. We appreciate the giving of your time and the interest you showed for Odessa Country Club. The survey itself will allow each and every member and spouse to state their opinion. Another group of our members that I would like to just say a special “Thank you” to are the members serving on our committees. We currently have approximately fifty members serving on nine different committees. I have started a two year rotation system for our committees beginning this year. For example, a committee with six members, there would be three new members and three others serving their second year. Therefore, several of our committee members have never served on an OCC Committee before. Our committees are chaired by at least one of our current Board of Directors. These committees meet either monthly or every other month. The Committee Members are appointed each year in April by the incoming President and the respective board member who heads up that particular committee. If you would like to serve, please remember to state your desires to the next President and Board of Directors. The Half Way House and Restrooms are finally finished. They have been a long time coming. We have been very anxious for the completion of these facilities, but I think worth the wait, after you see how nice they are. In fact, some of our members used the HWH as a shelter from the brief rain we had in mid-July, even before the HWH was finished. The year of ‘11 has turned out to be interesting, from the coldest, to the hottest to the driest! In spite of these extremes, we are glad to see all of you out enjoying the Club. It is just fun to see all the Club being used - patio, clubhouse, tennis courts, swimming pool, golf courses. OCC is the place to be! And it was the place to be for so many of you July 4th - that is great! We look forward to seeing you around the Club often during August. )5207+(0$1$*(5 August is shaping up to be one of the busiest months of the year. The club calendar is filled with activities for all to enjoy. Little Gusher’s camps, golf tournaments, tennis leagues, and dining specials are to name a few. Check the enclosed calendar for specifics or call the front desk for details and 5\DQ*HRUJH reservations. *HQHUDO0DQDJHU I want to say thanks to all members who volunteered and served on our focus group committees. Each session helped focus our research objectives for the upcoming survey. Your passion and commitment to the future of this club is appreciated. This season we have conducted three great club championships. The first was our Men’s Stroke Play Championship, which was won by Phil George. Second, Brian Madison captured our Men’s Match Play Championship. Lastly, our Ladies Club Championship was won by Denise Carbajal. Congratulations to our Club Champions!

The golf staff will also be hosting our final Junior Golf Camp of the summer on Tuesday, August 2nd – Thursday, August 4th. We have had a great turnout for all of our camps this summer and all of our junior golfers have had plenty of fun learning the FUNdamentals of golf. As always, Odessa Country Club needs every member’s continued assistance in keeping your golf courses in the absolute best condition possible in this scorching weather. We have painted lines on all of the holes to direct you back to the paths in order to keep the grass near and on the greens healthy and green. We appreciate your help, and as always, myself and my golf staff are here to support and help each and every member any way we possibly can. *ROI Congratulations to our members that hit some amazing golf shots in the past few weeks.

He has since been working with and training our other professionals about the relationships between golf and fitness. We now are able to put you through a fitness screen that will evaluate your fitness level as needed for efficient golf. Then, if you are interested, we have a group of trainers that we have been working with who can help you to get rid of your physical limitations. You will be on your way to better golf and feel better throughout your day. For more information on this program, please contact a member of our professional staff. Are you in this group? We have often heard the definition of insanity as repeating the same task while expecting different results. For many people, this happens everyday when they go to the course. Golfers go to the course with a new tip they just read in the latest golf magazine and feel like they have finally figured the game out. Only after a couple of shots they realize they have not increased their proficiency at all. Why are you not improving? Research shows that most golfers are not improving their ball striking abilities because there bodies cannot perform the athletic motion due to some deficiency in their flexibility or stability. These limitations create swing compensations that negatively affect the mechanics of the motion. Through research from TPI (Titleist Performance Institute) we now know exactly how physical limitations affect golf performance. What is TPI? The Titleist Performance Institute is the industry leader in golf health and fitness and they work with some of the top golfers in the world. It has an advisory board comprised of an elite group of outstanding professionals in a variety of fields that affect golf performance such as: medical, golf, fitness, junior golf, nutrition, biomechanics, and education. Through their research, programs, and education, we are able to better understand exactly how a person’s body can affect golf performance. *ROI 2&&/DGLHV *ROI$VVRFLDWLRQ “Summer Classic Tournament” will soon be here, again remember the dates August 23rd thru the 25th. By the time you are reading this article, we will be getting ready for this great tournament we have been planning all year. We are all so excited about this tournament. In July, they had another Ladies Clinic and although I was unable to attend, I heard it was great. The next dates we have for a Ladies Clinic are September 24th thru 25th. Please check with the Pro in the Golf Shop to make sure there has not been a change. We are still waiting on the results of a few tournaments from July, but since this will be going to the press, we may not have the results until next month. This will also hold true thru August. Because so many of our tournaments are not played untill the end of each month, be sure you still check all of your emails and the bulletin board in the Ladies Locker Room. The next Permian Basin Play will be August 17th at Green Tree CC . Remember ladies, during August Sign Up by 8:30 AM and Tee Time 9:00 AM for our Tuesday Play Days.

The tables were decorated with a spray of red, white, and blue exploding stars accented with four larger stars. Chairman Ramona Thompson, Marge Garner, Pauline Gage and Wanda Jones added to the patriotic atmosphere in their red, white, and blue jackets and sweaters. The patriotic theme was highlighted by the Permian High School Jr. ROTC Group Presenting a Salute To The Colors.

When making the dressing from scratch, you must follow the recipe so that you taste the stages of the (GGLH+DWFK,, dressing. To get the best flavor and )%0DQDJHU consistency of the dressing it’s best to use a wooden bowl and spoon. ,QJUHGLHQWV 1 Anchovie 1 Tbl of chopped garlic I Tbl of Grey Poupon 1 Egg Yolk 2 Tbl of Worcestershire sauce 2 dash of Tabasco 6oz of Salad oil 1 ½ tbl of red wine vinegar Hint of lemon Romaine Lettuce Shredded Parmesan Cheese Croutons Put the anchovie in a bowl, preferably a wooden bowl. Hold the bowl at a 45 degree angle and only use a small portion of the bowl to grind the anchovie until it forms a paste. Add the garlic to the paste and continue mixing. Next, we add the grey poupon. Be sure that you are mixing this thoroughly. Next, add the egg yolk. At this point, the dressing should still have a paste-like texture. Next, mix the worcestshire sauce, and the Tabasco. Then, add the salad oil and the red wine vinegar. At this point, the dressing is going to look broken, but as you continue to mix, it will become a creamy texture. You are almost done! Last, add the lemon. Do not add too much lemon, only two or three drops. Now that you have your dressing , add your romaine, parmesan cheese, croutons and begin to toss it so that the dressing is real light on the lettuce. Add a piece of grilled chicken if you wish. Enjoy this with a nice glass of Italian white wine. )RRG'ULQN $UFKLH²V&RUQHU It is now August and that means summer is nearing an end, so here is something called a Grape Lollipop! ,QJUHGLHQWV $UFKLH5ROOLH %DUWHQGHU 1 oz.

Trinity Oakes Cabernet Sauvignon is from the Trinity Oaks winery in St. Helena, California. Trinity Oaks Cabernet is vinified from a blend of 50% coastal grapes from the Monterey County growing region and 50% from the Lodi region (San Joaquin County), California’s *UHWD:DWVRQ largest premium wine growing area. 0DLWUH·G After a 10 day fermentation in the stainless tanks, the wine was aged in American and French oak to round out and soften its rich cherry and currant flavors. This wine exhibits delicious aromas of black cherry and currant with notes of green olive, cedar, dried herbs and vanilla. Rich and medium in body, with smooth, supple tannings, the flavors suggest cherry, cassis and nutmeg spice. The wine will pair well with braised and roasted meat dishes such as pot roast, prime rib, hearty pasta and chicken. You may enjoy this by the bottle at $20.00 or by the glass at $6.50.

How fast our summer vacation days fly by. Good news is there is still plenty of time to swim and enjoy the cool water on our HOT days here in West Texas. It is not too late to plan a Back-ToSchool party for your friends and family. Contact Becky to see what OCC can do for your special occasion to end the summer before school starts. Please remember safety is the number one concern in or around the pools. The lifeguards are here to make sure those rules are enforced for your family’s safety. Take time to thank them for the job they have been doing. Although lifeguarding looks like an easy job sitting there, the guard has many things to look for while sitting in their chair. Another thing is, it is hot sitting in the chair and not being able to get in the water to cool off. Our Pool Manager, Matt has been working hard to keep the guards trained and ready for action if needed. If a guard was not able to perform the tasks needed to provide the proper care in an emergency, the guard was not scheduled to work until he/she was able to show Matt the proper techniques in all pool emergency situations.

Our rainfall totals since last August for the Old Course is .22” and for the Links Course .57”. As the drought continues, however, our golf courses are hanging in there. Many of the drought management programs implemented at your Greens Committee and with the Boards approval are working very well. We have improved our soil amendment programs with the increase of Lime and Gypsum applications to off-set the salt dominance in the soil, therefore increasing turfgrass growth and improved water infiltration. We have started our irrigation amendment programs to also increase our watering efficiency and salt-remediation. These programs include injection of wetting agents and soluble Calcium through the irrigation systems that will increase our watering efficiency by up to 20 percent. Other drought management programs are: slight *UHJ+LQWRQ 'LURI*ROI&RXUVH0DLQW increases in mowing heights on greens, tees and fairways, restriction on amount of irrigation going in roughs and to focus irrigation in high-play areas (greens, tees and fairways), and also in the future root pruning of trees to reduce competition for turf. Greens on both golf courses are doing well with a good root system and turf cover that are helping us get through the heat and lack of rain. The next couple of months are critical as we see a slight change in weather patterns this time of year. However, our night temperatures on the golf courses have been in the mid to high 60’s at 6 AM. Our daily morning monitoring of temperatures have been around 65’s at the Links and about 67’s at the Old Course. It can be 104 during the day as long as we have 60’s at night. Our greens irrigation is always scheduled in the early morning hours (as late as possible, usually around 4:30 to 6:00 AM) to take advantage of driving that cool irrigation deep into the soil profile. Our good turf cover and cool nights are very critical for bent/poa success in the summer. Last year at this time, with all the rain, our day temperatures were in the 90’s and nights in the mid 70’s, not a good combination. One of our main focuses is on improving turf quality on the practice range tees. We have a few struggles to overcome with the heavy clay material that the tees were constructed with along with the drought & high-sodium water. These have given us tees with poor quality turf. Practice tees, due to their nature of high traffic and use, need to be able to recover turf every 14-21 days to provide turf for practicing, we are not there…..we are in survival mode. Changes in practice tee maintenance programs i want the hospital that knows include: doubling soil amendments (Lime and Gypsum), doubling fertility applications (nitrogen and potassium) and increased aerification (coring and slicing) along with topdressing You and your family have come to trust the fast, effective cardiac care at on Mondays with a sandy loam and compost mix. We are also ORMC, but there is another emergency that is just as critical. A stroke, changing out irrigation heads to improve coverage and to fight or “brain attack,” is one of the leading causes of death, but it is the #1 cause of disability. Major symptoms of stroke appear suddenly. the Southwest winds for better irrigation coverage. time is critical The most common symptoms of stroke can be remembered by the acronym FAST: t ''BDFIs one side of the face drooping down? t ""SNCan the person raise both arms, or is one arm weak? t 44QFFDIIs speech slurred or confusing? t 55JNF5JNFJTDSJUJDBM Call 9-1-1 immediately!

Be prepared, this drought is not over and may be a fact of life going into the future. Did you know that Fescue grown in full sun needs twice the water as Bermuda and you have to mow it in the winter months. There are several new, improved, salt-tolerant Bermudas and a couple of moderately shade tolerant Bermudas you could install in your lawns for the price of the water you’re using on your Fescue. 7HQQLV Tennis News We have had a great summer on the courts here at Odessa Country Club.

QHZ H K W WV W D X + R O N D*LU &KHF P D $ODE Tip of the Month How to pick a doubles partner 1. Find someone who you can get along with and have some fun. 2. Make sure your partner compliments your game Example: If you’re the type of player that’s a finisher, you want a player that keeps a lot of balls in play. If you keep a lot in play, you want a partner that’s aggressive, and puts the ball away. This is called, Hammer and Wedge Theory. I hope this helps you find a doubles partner!
