Sunday, October 5th, 6:00pm Windsor Ballroom The St Ives Annual Meeting of Equity Members is scheduled for Sunday, October 5, 2014, during which elections will be held to fill two (2) Board of Director vacancies for 2014-2017. Letters were mailed by July 31, 2014, to those Members eligible to run for the Board. Responses of interested Members were due by August 16, 2014. To be eligible for election for the Board of Directors, a Member must: • be an Equity Member in good standing • have paid an initiation fee in full • have served at least two (2) years as a Member of a standing committee within the past four (4) years, or be a past Member of the Board who has completed two (2) years of service on the Board within the past seven (7) years. The 2014 Nominating Committee is: • Dan Brutto, Chairperson • Bill Buckham • Jim Gottschalk • Andy Leonard • Joanie Rogge Letter From the COO/General Manager 2014 Annual Meeting of Equity Members Dear Members, The Board and Management have been very busy this summer keeping St Ives a premier facility in the area. I am often asked, “What are you guys up to?” and “How is the Club doing?” Well, we have been very busy in several areas of your Club. We have replaced several pieces of equipment in the Turnberry Grille’s kitchen to help speed up food production. Two new permanent pavilions have been built at the Tennis Center with lighting and ceiling fans. The Windsor Ballroom received a face lift with new carpet, paint and curtains. There have also been several specific questions that I have been asked lately about the Golf Course and Grounds and feel this is a great time to update the Membership: Golf: • The new hitting mats have been installed and are now open. Please note that you are able to place a tee in the mats. You will no longer need to position yourself in front of the mats to hit drivers. • The Range targets have been re-sodded and are growing in nicely. • The sprigs on the Range tees are coming along as expected in light of the less than stellar weather for growing Bermuda. The new grass is still not ready to hit on and will keep you updated when that changes. • Cart path work will begin the first week of September. There is work planned for areas on #6, #7, #8, #9 and other areas around the course. • We are very aware of the creek issue on #12 and the eyesore it creates. Medalist Golf will begin repairs during the middle of September. At that time they will also re-grade some areas along the stone wall to help with long term maintenance of the silt. • Medalist will also be doing some drainage repair work on #16 at the same time. They are expected to be on property for approximately two weeks. • The bubblers that were added last year to the lake on # 11 have been a big help in keeping the algae reduced compared to years past. Because there is still an algae issue, we hired a company to come treat the algae and you should see the difference already. • Please help us maintain your Course: • Dispose of cigars and cigarettes properly. • Do not drop cigar or cigarette ashes on the greens. • Do not throw wrappers on your course. • Do not spit Sunflower seeds on the greens. • Please help the Agronomy Department keep the bunkers looking and playing well, rake your foot prints when exiting. We hope you are having an enjoyable summer and look forward to a very active fall at the Club. From the Board Members and Staff, thank you for all your support. Sincerely, John Gerdts General Manager/CEO [email protected] 3 • FROM THE COO/GENERAL MANAGER • St Ives Country Club We have simplified the dress codes in such a way that we hope it makes it easier to understand and comply with the attire requirements at the Club. As of August 18th, the Clubhouse policy is as follows. Please visit http://www.stivescountryclub.org/MemberCentral/Documents,-Handbooks,-Rules-and-Regulations. aspx to access the new brochure in it’s entirety, including Clubhouse, Golf, Tennis and Swim requirements. Please make note, the St Ives dress code applies to all adults and children 12 years of age and older. Thank you for your cooperation, House and Social Committee Clubhouse includes the surrounding Patio area • Tasteful casual attire, including golf and tennis attire. • Jeans are permitted in all areas of the Clubhouse (except in the Formal Dining Room on Saturday evenings) and must be in good taste (not torn, ripped or excessively baggy) • On “Family Night” the Clubhouse dress code still applies • St Ives Country Club special functions which require a dress code such as “jackets required” will be identified with the specific event publications • St Ives dress code applies to all adults and children 12 years of age and older Inappropriate Clubhouse attire includes: • Shorts or tennis attire in the Formal Dining Room, jeans on Saturday evenings in the Formal Dining Room • Athletic/workout attire • Sweatshirts and inappropriate t-shirts • Cut-off shorts, short shorts, bathing attire, and bare feet • Flip flops on the upper level of the Clubhouse • Hats on the upper level of the Clubhouse after 6:00pm • Shirts that are un-tucked unless designed to be that way (Tommy Bahama Style) Hello and welcome September! I hope everyone has enjoyed their summer, and maybe having one last cookout before fall really comes in. It’s been a much cooler season, and we have all loved the break from the usual endless, muggy days that is the norm. But now – bring in Football Season!!! (that is a proper noun, right???). Quick Updates: We had a fantastic turnout at the New Member Welcome Reception last month, and it was a GREAT party! Thank you to all who made it such a big night. If you were invited, and could not attend this time, rest assured you will be invited to the next one; I will make sure you get to one! It was such a pleasure to see all the new Members meeting each other, making new friends, and the sense of community that was formed - love it! Young Executive Membership Program: This category is still going strong for us, and St Ives is considered to have the best program of this kind in the area. There are currently 103 Young Executives. It is hard to think that there were just 7 in this category in 2011. Ages 33-44 is the fastest growing demographic in Johns Creek, and our Club is doing very well at representing this incoming group of young professionals to the area. If you have a “Young Executive” friend to refer, please contact me for an update on the program details and financials. I look forward to being of service. One final note, in this new era of corporate takeovers and buy-outs, St Ives is a stand out. We are going strong and growing. It is wonderful to see what a group of kind, cool people can do! Thanks for making this the best club ever, and for being so good to each other. Have a great September, and… Gooooo Falcons!!!!!

The grass on the Driving Range has grown in nicely and the new mats are getting rave reviews. We are asking all range players to be more diligent on how to minimize the amount of divots taken with each practice session. Your help here will greatly improve the condition of the Range.

This will allow us to keep the turf in better condition. Thanks for your help with this! Rake the Bunkers. We need your help and ask that all players rake the bunkers when your ball is in one. We are getting feedback that some players are not doing so. 11 •11SOCIAL • FROM NEWS TEE TO & DINING GREEN • St Ives Country Club Under the 2014 Couples Member Guest Tuscan Sun September 26th & 27th Invite another couple to St Ives for a “Taste of Tuscany” in this year’s Couples Member Guest.
