Our owner committed to paying employees through March but has not announced if any future months will be paid. We have a $50 Food Minimum which the owner removed and I contacted the GM and asked if it could be donated to help staff. He indicated yes, so I authorized a $100 charge and hope other member donate also. There are staff members who have been at the club for years, it would be a bad situation if they do not return. -
Yes, best wishes. So, guess I said it wrong. I was just trying to emphasize how powerful this virus is. It was around before the first human got it, and now there's no-telling how many million humans have it. It will be around regardless of what humans do, not that that is a reason not to do the best we can. As for Taiwan . . . "Early Action, Technology & Millions of Face Masks" . . . pretty much rules out the US's Early Denial, No Testing and No PPE chances for a good outcome. -
For something like a driver, grip down for awhile before you make a decision. -
My club sent out a letter just last week because of inquiries. I copied and pasted the pertinent items outlined below. The Waterside Grill/Banquets/Special Events: 1. Detailed cleaning policy of the entire establishment, every 2 hours, set in place and strictly monitored. 2. Sit down restaurant dining has been eliminated to adhere to social distancing requirements. 3. Take-out orders are available based on limited menu. 4. Curb side pick-up available upon request. 5. No gathering of more than 10 people and social distancing within the building observed of 6 feet. 6. Cancellation/postponing of all scheduled events and community activities. 7. Special “Family Style” dinners for take-out and catering orders being offered. 8. Take out of mixed beverages allowed with food orders. Golf Operations: 1. Detailed cleaning policy of the entire establishment, every 2 hours, set in place and strictly monitored. 2. Social distancing of 6 feet per person required and no gathering of more than 10 people. 3. Golf cart ridership restricted to one person per cart (exception for family members only) 4. Flagpoles to remain in hole at all times. Flagpoles cleaned 2+ times per day. 5. Rakes removed from sand traps. 6. Driving range closed until further notice. Putting green open and flagpoles removed. 7. Removal of sand bottles and coolers from golf carts. 8. Golf carts cleaned and disinfected after each round. 9. Cancellation of all scheduled tournaments and events. 10. Elimination of all shot-gun starts to minimize crowd size in favor of tee times. 11. Remove water stations on golf course and provide bottle water for free. 12. Elimination of course beverage cart. Snacks, beverages and ice bags available in Pro Shop. Fitness Center: 1. The Fitness Center is closed until the COVID-19 social distancing requirement is removed. 2. Membership fees for the fitness center are suspended until the center is reopened. Tennis Courts: 1. Detailed cleaning policy of tennis court area, every 2 hours, set in place and strictly monitored. 2. Water stations removed. The club is doing all it can to remain open and keep as many of the employees working as they possibly can. Our club is within a city that is solely within a gated community. The golf course is more busy every day than it has ever been because of the "stay at home" order from the county. Also, the golf course is considered to be a "park" and has not really had any issues staying open....so far. What we do have to do is practice social distancing. Also, the golf course is only open to members and their guests. Outside players unaccompanied by a member...not allowed. The county sheriff can show up at any time to make sure all the precautions required are in place and being observed. As far as golf membership dues are concerned...we are paying what we always pay. -
Good stroke there. We didn’t film down the line but it’s a great way to practice (with the sticks) for the path.
