Message From the Board-
Message From the Manager–
Ron Botello, Board Chairman
Sergio Salazar, General Manager
The Club at Sonterra is the place to be. My family,
including my grandsons, attended the 4th of July
celebration and it was awesome. Took the boys to the
pool and they were able to play games while the rest of
us chilled out and enjoyed the pool side service and
great company. The evening events were done
extremely well also, even with the showers. Of course
concluded by one of the best fireworks displays you’ll
see anywhere in San Antonio. It was great seeing members and guests
enjoying the festivities that the Sonterra staff worked so hard to provide.
It made me proud to be a member and proud to be an American. I also
had the privilege of sharing lunch with the legendary Lee Trevino and his
son. Lee’s son was preparing for a tournament to be played at our course
and wanted to get in a practice round with his Dad. Lee had some great
comments about our North course and asked if we knew what a gem we
had. I believe Jeff Hunter is providing a little more detail in his article this
month. I will say this, I thought I talked a lot; Lee is the master of conversation and shared some stories about the tour and his friendship with fellow member Frank Connor. It was great sharing time with Lee and hearing positive comments about our club. Work has begun on the renovation
of the bar in the main clubhouse. I know everyone will be pleased when
this is completed and I can’t wait to see the final result. I hope many of
you took advantage of the Chairman’s Challenge and invited guests to a
round of golf on us, no green fee. We are struggling to meet our next goal
for the renovation of the 19th hole, please consider inviting your friends to
join the best country club in town and one that is actually growing and
providing a wide range of activities for everyone. I’m proud to be a member of The Club at Sonterra, I hope you feel the same. If you are, share
this with those that would like to be a member also. Enjoy the remainder
of the summer!

It is hard to believe that August is already
here. It seems odd that the children will
already be going back to school. After a
slow start to the year, we seem to have hit
our full stride later in the year than usual.
Both golf courses are in great shape and the
clubhouse looks better every day. Both
restrooms in the main clubhouse have now been completed and
new flooring has been installed in the sports grill and in the tennis pro shop. The remodeling of the lounge in the main clubhouse will begin the second week of this month and is scheduled
to be complete in three weeks. Many members have asked what
we will do for a main bar during the renovation and we have
decided to create “Sonterra’s Traveling Saloon.” Every few days,
we will theme a different room in the clubhouse and incorporate
that theme into the drink specials and music. More information
will be available through our club emails and Facebook.
We are still 20-25 net golf members away from triggering the
start of the 19th hole/Ivy Room renovation. The re-invention of
this space would be a huge milestone and would be a benefit to
our club in the future. While a few private clubs in the area have
cut back on member dining hours and have even eliminated dining on Saturday evenings and Sunday brunches at their club, we
have continued to add events and music to encourage the use of
the club. We need to create a place that encourages use and becomes more of a member destination. If you know anybody who
you think may be interested in joining please contact Deborah
Routon or myself.
Thank you for being a Member,

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the beginning of World War I. To
celebrate this anniversary your club has pressed into service, Col. Joe and
Col. Janet Robinson authors of the recent book "The Great War Dawning."
In a series of three presentations,
we will offer subjects that should
tickle the interest of many amateur
historians. We invite you to sit
back, have a drink and listen to one
or more of these presentations – all
of which will contain: "Things we
never learned in school."
The first presentation was held on (July 29). "The German Schlieffen Plan,
August 1914."
The second presentation (August 5) is for everyone – we have grown up
reading and hearing about scandals and issues with the British Royal family.
Well Imperial Germany had twenty-one Royal families. Entitled "Scandals
and Gossip about the Royal Families of Imperial Germany," we will take a
humorous view of scandal, infidelity, insanity, diseases, and one of the
"original cougars."
The third presentation (August 12) is
held on the exact anniversary of the
battle. Transpiring eight days after the
start of World War I This is a littleknown story of an engagement between Germany and Belgium. Based
on their upcoming book "The Last
Great Cavalry Charge," you will learn
about what the Belgians refer to as the
"Battle of the Silver Helmets." Four
mounted German cavalry regiments
charge their way into history and glory.
After eight separate charges they left
behind 1000
dead horses.
Because
there were no English-speaking participants and
the British forces were just starting to land on
the European continent not much has been
handed down to us in English-language texts.
The Germans were not really proud of their
performance and did not publicize this debacle.
You must reserve a seat with the receptionist
but there is no charge. They start at 7 o'clock on
three consecutive Tuesday nights. Beat the heat
and try the air-conditioning!
Fitness Boot Camp at Sonterra

fat, build and firm your muscles, while increasing your strength

held every Tuesday and Thursday at 5:30pm and costs $5.00 a
class or $30.00 a month. Let’s PARTY!!!! And get in shape!

Golf News- Jeff Hunter, Director of Golf
Often times we come to Sonterra through the same
door. We fail to look at the club as if we were new to
it and rob ourselves of seeing Sonterra and what it has
to offer. This week I had the pleasure of hosting Lee
Trevino, his son, and wife along with one of his good
friends from San Antonio. I first met Lee some thirty
years ago when I worked the tour and as you would
expect Lee was Lee. Talkative, outgoing and friendly
to all that approached. However, Lee pulled me aside
and said “Jeff, do your members know just what they
have here?” My reply, some do. Lee then proceeded to tell me just how
much he loved the North Course, how this quickly became one of his
favorite courses in Texas, and just how beautiful the club was. This man
has won over 80 tournaments in his career including 6 majors. He has
seen the world through golf and reminded me of just how beautiful Sonterra is. What a great reminder to all of us! Treat Sonterra as it deserves
to be treated. Fill those divots, share carts and let us all try to leave the
club and courses in better shape than we found them. Walk through a
different door and view her with different eyes. Your pride and your
want to share with friends might and should grow exponentially.
CONGRATULATIONS to our men’s Senior Club Champion, Harry
Ramirez. Three solid rounds of golf including a 67 on the South Course
propelled Harry to victory.
Harry takes the crown from
last years champion, Rhett
Morrow, whose game title
defense fell a little short.
Thank you to all who participated.
Please keep us informed and
feel free to ask those that may
be walking, jogging, riding
bikes, or abusing club
grounds, for a name or member number. Many members
have told me about non
members using the club in the
evening or Mondays, yet they
won’t give me a name. I am more than willing to protect your club, but
you must be willing to give me names so that I can make a phone call.
Help us help you!!

On the Greens– Donny Latham,
Golf Course Superintendent
July has come and gone and we actually received
some much needed beneficial rainfall. This is
rare for July but we certainly needed it. The
courses are very healthy and the turf is growing
like crazy. We aerified our South course Emerald
greens on July 28 and the greens are recovering
quickly. We will aerify our North course MiniVerde greens on August
18. This process, although disruptive to member play, is a necessary
agronomic practice that we must do to eliminate thatch, alleviate compaction and provide oxygen to the root zone. This process is paramount to maintaining the high level of greens conditions that you all
expect.
I would like to discuss what maintenance is being done to
our bunkers. Several years ago the North course bunkers were renovated and all the sand was removed, liners installed and new sand was
installed. As many of you have noticed, the liner has been pulled up
on many of the greenside bunkers. We are continually pulling more
liner out of these bunkers as it is exposed. I purchased a tiller that we
use in these bunkers to soften the sand that is silted over. When we
receive these much needed rain events, often times our sand is
washed down off the face of the bunkers and sand, silt and soil is
mixed together. This makes the surface of the bunkers very firm, as if
there is not enough sand in the bunkers. Our goal is to scrape this silt
off the top and till the sand up. This will help our greenside bunkers
remain soft and easier to hit an elevated shot. We also added sand to
many of our bunkers on both North and South that were getting thin.
We also ordered 25 new rakes in July and will continue to purchase
new rakes in the upcoming months to replace some of the broken,
splintered handled or old rakes.
As we get into August and the rest of the summer, as always,
I ask that you avoid traffic areas, avoid driving in the roughs and
please follow any and all signs that are posted so that we may continue to have great course conditions the rest of the year. Thank You
ALL for Being a Member.

Tennis News- Michelle Dodier, Director of Tennis
We’ve had a super summer and I can’t believe it’s
almost over. With all the activities here at the club, and
getting in those family trips, fall just sneaked up on us.
We here in the tennis shop are in fall mode preparation.
We have summer leagues ending, summer junior camps
ending, summer clothes going on sale and everyone is
in preparation for the fall leagues.
We had a great time at our annual 4th of July Mixer.
There were 70 adults and 25 juniors that played for
three hours and this time the rain held out for us. We
played, we swam, we ate, we rested and then we came
back for the festivities that evening of fireworks and
more eating and partying. What a day!
August is again one of those transition months. As I
said earlier there is a lot ending and a lot starting. Team
numbers have already been given out in July and teams
are forming if not already formed. The mid-season ratings came out in July and
there is now some shuffling going on with members getting rated up or down.
Please contact the shop if you need help finding a team – we want you here on a
Sonterra team.
I must congratulate Sonterra league tennis once again for having a great first half
of the year. We’ve had a mixed doubles team go to Hawaii, we have a World
Team Tennis team going to Kansas, we have many teams going to sectionals in
Dallas this month, we have our combo teams sweeping out the competition 5 out
of 7 divisions, we had teams go to Nationals, we have one of our pros that won
the men’s 45’s doubles in Worlds Cup in Turkey and we have a whole page of
winners every month in our Winner’s Circle section. Congratulations to all our
members and thank you for making Sonterra the place to be for fun tennis, competitive tennis and family tennis.
Stay tuned for all the upcoming events via e-mail, bulletin board, word of mouth,
smoke signals and any other way we can get the word out.
