2010 Opening Letter
Dear Fellow Golfer,
After some crazy weather, the golf season has sprinted to a start. Sterling Farms may have lost over 100 trees, but the #1 public golf course in Fairfield County is already in beautiful playing condition.
Last year I stated my two goals as President were to increase communication and participation. There were some successes and lessons learned. The board and I have taken these into consideration and are making adjustments for 2010. I will be sending less lengthy emails throughout the season but more short email reminders. The intent is to make sure our members are aware of sign-up start and end dates.
One major addition to what we do as a club is our new Player of the Year cumulative point system. Members will get points for participating as well as for placing in all of our events. At the end of the season we will have additional payouts. We are currently working with some local companies in an attempt to get a financial sponsor. Any monies received will be used to pay out the winners of the Player of the Year as well as put money in the bank for when we host the Shoreline tournament in 2012.
Membership rates for regular and senior members have increased in 2010. We had kept the rates the same for the past few years while most of our hard costs kept increasing.
- $70 Standard Membership
- $60 Senior Membership (62 and older)
- $30 Junior Membership (12 to 17)
***We collect an additional $10 from members participating in CSGA events.
The website and bulletin board have been updated with our calendar of events for the year. But please mark your calendars with the following dates:
- Opening Event Saturday April 24
- Member / Member Sunday June 27
- Member / Guest Sunday August 8
- Closing Event Saturday October 2
I would like to take a moment to thank our supporters. Please think of them when looking to do business. This includes the pro-shop with Angela and her staff; The Stamford Golf Authority, Paul, Tracey and their staffs; The Royal Green and everyone who provides us with food and drink!
We hope to see you on the links!
