Member-Guest 2013
Our Annual Member-Guest Golf Tournament kicked off on Friday, August 9 th and concluded
on Sunday. Members and their guests enjoyed an action packed weekend that included two full
days of golf competition. After completing practice rounds, Friday night wrapped up with a social, Calcutta, and wine tasting. On Saturday, while players enjoyed a full day of competition,
the Ladies enjoyed great shopping and delicious food provided by The Ashford Inn. Saturday
night guests relaxed with the sounds of live music provided by The Central Park Band and great
food by Simply Southern. Following the final day of competition, golfers enjoyed heavy hors
d’oeuvres provided by Simply Southern during awards. Congratulations to our tournament
champions Jonathan Williams and Bill Herring. Our member-guest committee consisted of
Chairperson Jonathan Williams, Mandy DuBose, Chris Fann, Bryan Griffin, Brent Parrish,
Yvonne Rackley, Elizabeth Rogers, Brandon Williams, and Ronnie Williams. Thank you to our
committee and everyone else that participated in helping make our 2013 member-guest tournament a success.

Camp Kemo
We are excited about our next Shag event not just to enjoy good music and dancing, but also
to support Camp Kemo. Camp Kemo is a camp that is fully funded by donations and is coordinated and presented by the Palmetto Health Children’s Hospital, out of Columbia, SC. The purpose of Camp Kemo is to provide a normal camping experience for children with cancer and their
siblings. Camp also provides a respite for parents caring for children with cancer and gives them
a chance to get away, knowing their children are in the hands of the same physicians, nurses, and
staff who provide their treatment throughout the year. Hundreds of volunteers contribute to the
success of Camp Kemo and it is recognized as being one of the 1st Pediatric Oncology Camps.
The camp is overnight for four nights, and hosts more than 100 children each year. We invite
you to come get your shag on at SamCo Shag Club’s Pre S.O.S. Party and Silent Auction in honor of Camp Kemo on September 6th. Enjoy great dancing with music by Robert Stroud and a
FREE beginner dance lesson by Pro Dancer John Bradshaw from 7-7:30 pm. The party starts at
7:30 pm and ends at 11:30 pm right here at CCC. All Auction proceeds and 50/50 drawing proceeds will go to Camp Kemo. For more information on Camp Kemo please visit our website at
www.cohariecc.com.

Coharie Days of Summer
Our Annual Coharie Days of Summer wrapped up on August 2nd
after a wonderful week full of golf, tennis, and swimming lessons
and games. Coharie Country Club would like to thank Heather Waters, for directing our camp again this year and all the volunteers
who took the time out of their busy summer schedules to assist the
Club in making the Coharie Days of Summer the best camp we have
had in years.
Couples Golf
Mark your calendars for Tuesday, September 10 th and Tuesday, September 24th, for an evening of Couples Golf. Starting at 6:00 pm, couples
will be paired into groups of four, for a nine hole superball tournament. Couples can consist of husband and wife, boyfriend and girlfriend, or
whomever you would like to participate with, but must be a male/female combination. To sign up, call the pro shop by 2:00 pm on the day of the
event. Teams will be made at random, and available by 4:00 pm. Play will start promptly at 6:00 pm, so don’t be late! Afterwards, hang around,
socialize, and enjoy our dinner service while Dickie tallies the scores and announces the winners. Entry fee is $25.00/couple and includes the cart.
We hope you can make it. For more information, contact Dickie Walters at the pro shop.
CGA Interclub Playoffs
Coharie Makes a New Purchase
Coharie tied for first place with Willow Springs in the CGA’s Interclub
regular season matches with a record of 4-2. Our only losses came from
King’s Grant and Riverwood. Coming in third place was The Crossing Golf
Club, out of Durham, NC. Playoff brackets will be announced the first week
of September and first round matches must be completed by the end of the
month. Thanks again to Randy Wiggins for his leadership. In order to participate in the playoffs, you must have competed in a regular season match.
If you have played golf during the weekday lately, you may have noticed a new mower
cutting the rough or that the rough is not as tall. Thanks to the Board of Directors, we were
able to replace the 12 year old Toro unit with a Progressive Pro-Flex 120. The pull behind
unit has a cutting radius of twelve feet. The belt driven decks, allow for faster cutting speeds
and the floating wheels help avoid scalping. The unit has allowed us to cut the entire rough
areas in a day and a half, compared to the Toro unit taking four days. Randy is excited to
have the new unit and he thanked the Board for being so supportive.

Employee Spotlight
This month we would like to spotlight one of
our lounge employees, Ashley Packer. Miss.
Packer has been employed with us as a bartender
since April. She was born in Carthage, raised in
Roseboro, and has always lived in North Carolina. Miss. Packer grew up in Roseboro with her
dad, Terry, and sister, Stephanie, who is four
years older. She attended Lakewood High
School, where she graduated in 2008. After
graduation, she moved to another small town
near Charlotte where her mom lived called
Troutman. Miss. Packer spent five years in a
couple of small towns near Charlotte, where she
served her first year of college for Accounting
and working as a server and customer service
representative. After missing her hometown, she
decided to move back to Sampson County this
past April.
Miss. Packer loves spending time with family,
especially with her eight-year-old niece Hannah
and her two-year-old nephew Nolon. She loves
to go shopping and spend time with friends, sing
karaoke, bowling, and to watch movies. One
thing that most people don’t know about Miss.
Packer is that she can sing. She grew up singing
at Elizabeth Baptist Church and for many other
events. She loves to cook and to try new foods.
Her favorite meal is her Grandma’s Chicken and
Pastry with cornbread. Miss. Packer hopes to go
back to college in the near future for Cosmetolo-
gy. She has always wanted a career styling hair
and making people pretty. Her long term goal is
to own her own business, doing what she loves.
Miss. Packer will turn 23 on October 5th so
please be sure to come out and wish her a Happy
Birthday!

News From Coharie
Board of Director’s Spotlight
Coharie Country Club operates under the guidance of a board of director’s which consists of
nine members. To show our appreciation to our Board members for their dedication to CCC we
would like to highlight one of our board members each month. This month the spotlight falls on
Mr. Jeff Nethercutt, our current Board of Director’s President. Mr. Nethercutt is a Clinton native and graduated from Clinton High School in 1978. He attended Wake Forest and Campbell
University and graduated from Campbell in 1982 with a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration and Economics. After graduation, Mr. Nethercutt worked in banking for 12 years, returning to Clinton in 1995 to accept a position with Star Telephone Membership Corporation. He has been employed by Star Telephone Membership Corporation for the past 18 years
where he currently holds the position of Vice President of Corporate Operations. Mr. Nethercutt
has also been a Coharie member for 18 years. He has been married to his beautiful wife Lisa for four years and has two sons, Hunter
and Collin both students at East Carolina University; as well as two step children, Katie who is an English teacher at Hobbton High
School and Patrick, a student at Sampson Community College. Mr. Nethercutt is a member of First Baptist Church, he serves on the
Board Of Directors of U-Care, he is a member of the Clinton Kiwanis Club, and he is the incoming President for the CarolinasVirginias RUS Telephone Accountants Association. This is his second term served on the Coharie Country Club board of Directors.
Mr. Nethercutt’s hobbies include golf and spending time with family and friends. Mr. Nethercutt stated, “I would like to say that
Coharie Country Club has been an important part of my life for more than 40 years. I was introduced to the game of golf and Coharie
by Jack and Bill Nance and their father, the late Dr. John Nance. I am committed to making Coharie a place that families enjoy and
want to be a part of as well as trying to place the club in a position of financial sustainability. I want to do my best to make sure that
Coharie Country Club continues its role in Clinton and Sampson County for generations to come.”
Final Pool Update
It’s hard to believe that summer at the Coharie pool is winding down. It has been a great summer… but it’s not over yet! The
pool will open at its regular hours on Labor Day weekend – Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. We will also have a lost and found area,
so if you’ve lost anything (especially beach towels), please check with us. Anything not claimed will be discarded after Labor Day.
Thanks to the wonderful lifeguards, Dickie, Amanda, Randy, the lounge staff (who kept everyone hydrated!), and especially to all
the members who brought family members and guests to enjoy the Coharie pool this summer. There are a lot of finalists in the “pool
attendance competition” and the “pool accessory competition” – you know who you are – but due to the closeness of the race, the
competition will have to continue next summer. Congratulations to all the finalists!
Please come join us at the Coharie pool for one last weekend over Labor Day!
See you at the pool,
Ms. Susan
