Thank you to everyone who has already completed our Golf Merchandise Survey. We are almost there! To everyone else, check your e-mail or stop by the golf shop and see Sarah Brown to get your name and information in our database. EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT Sarah Brown, Golf Shop Manager What does an Arts Management, soccer & lacrosse player that has spent a majority of her career opening restaurant concepts in VA & MD have to do with golf? More than you think! This eclectic mix of jobs plus 12 years of retail experience has ended up being the perfect recipe for a stellar Golf Shop Manager at CCL. Sarah Brown started her position of shop manager in February 2011. “I wanted to find a way to customize the CCL member shopping experience, down to their favorite colors, specific sizes and brands. I think it’s important to try and create a personalized shopping experience to keep loyalty with the golf shops and ultimately find the members exactly what they want.“ Sarah's other tasks include special orders, keeping the shops in exceptional shape, along with assisting Sara Bush. Sarah Brown has plenty upcoming plans for the CCL membership; so stay tuned! NEW SHOE CLEANING SYSTEM Available at the Dye and Nick Can you clean your golf shoes in less than 30 seconds? Yes, it’s possible! The Mercury Golf and Sports Shoe Cleaning System is the high tech air powered solution that cleans your shoes quickly and effectively. The High Tech Air-Powered Solution allows golfers to clean a pair of golf shoes under any weather condition in less than 30 seconds. It easily removes grass, mud and leaves from your shoes spikes, soles, seams, tops, and even around the shoelaces. Stop by and try it out! 4 Golf GREEN’S CORNER by Jeff Mack The spring and early summer season brings both soil and air temperatures that the CCL Bentgrass greens absolutely adore. Research consistently concludes that Bent achieves its most significant root growth during this time of year. We will assist the Bent in becoming as healthy as possible by continued execution of properly timed applications and grooming practices. These processes, coupled with healthy turf, will yield silky smooth putting surfaces that the CCL membership both deserves and expects. Pending CCL Board approval, a fan will be placed to the back left of #9 Dye green and be fully operational by the end of May. The prevailing winds of summer are restricted at this particular site, and the turf on the rear quadrant of this green consistently exhibits symptoms of stress. Adding this fan and increasing air circulation should dramatically improve turf quality during the summer months. Many, if not all, have probably noted how the irrigation heads immediately surrounding the CCL greens are grouped in pairs. One head in the pair is dedicated to solely watering the putting surface in that respective area, while the other is responsible for irrigating the perimeter outside of the green in that respective area. The irrigation requirements for the Bent differs from the closely adjacent Bermuda. Having this type of specified control is critical in practicing sound water management practices. Frequent inspections and corrections, where necessary, take place throughout the year to ascertain that all heads are adjusted properly and working as intended. As a reminder to the CCL membership, in coordination with NCSU, we will be evaluating the herbicide, Amicarbazone, on select Pines greens during the month of April. This material appears promising in terms of safely and effectively removing Poa Annua from Bent maintained at green’s height. Rick Johnson and his staff will soon be transitioning/planting the CCL landscape beds to summer annuals. The work will begin later this month and conclude in early to mid-May. We look forward to introducing beautiful color and designs to the CCL courses and grounds for all to enjoy. Harassment of resident geese on the CCL courses by use of a dedicated handler and trained canine(s) is currently in full swing. Excellent results were noted by the utilization of this same service in 2010 and we expect the same in 2011. This time of year, constant pressure via harassment is critical, in that it will hopefully irritate the geese and force them to go elsewhere. If and when they do settle down and nest, they will remain until later in the summer once the young are able to fly. Weed pressure is typically at its peak during the spring of the year. Well-timed, cost efficient herbicide applications will be executed as needed. Please keep in mind that some selective herbicides take a few weeks to work and symptoms of injury to the target plants are not always immediate. Also, the “blue” color visible on the courses following an application is an indicator dye added to the tank, so our applicators are aware of what has and has not been sprayed. The indicator dye usually disappears within a week’s time. Assuming temperatures continue to rise, the Bermuda on the CCL courses will continue to emerge from dormancy. Temporarily, mowing heights will be lowered to aid in “cleaning-up” the courses. Remember, the dormant leaves on the Bermuda turf stand are basically dead tissue. All regeneration of growth following dormancy is initiated from the stolons and rhizomes at and/or below ground level. Removal of a portion of the dormant leaves, via mowing at a lower height, will encourage quicker green-up by increasing sun exposure down into the canopy. As always, if you should have any questions, please feel free to stop me on the course, or make an appointment to see me in my office. Spring is time for Junior Golf This month’s focus for Junior Golf is chipping. This is an important skill for every golfer, but especially beginners and juniors. April opens up with chipping practice clinics to get our juniors ready for this month’s Skills Challenge. Juniors attending these clinics will take a series of skills tests in order to find areas of the game that need improvement. Members of the CCL Junior Golf Academy will have their progress tracked throughout the year with the goal of improving everyone’s game in a fun environment. It’s not too late to sign up for the CCL Junior Golf Academy! Call or e-mail Justin at [email protected] for more information for Junior Golf. 5 DREAMGIRLS! 2011 Ladies' Invitational June 8-10 Wednesday, June 8 2:30-4 p.m. Practice Round Registration and Reception Putting and Chipping Contests, Shootout Thursday, June 9 8:30 a.m. Tournament play begins at the Dye with 4-person teams, 2-best balls of the foursome 6 p.m. Cocktail Party (Sixties attire suggested, color scheme is pink and coral) Friday, June 10 8:30 a.m. Tournament play at the Nicklaus Luncheon and Awards following play Don't miss this fun-filled event!

Mark presented the immediate past president, Fran Drury, with the Past President’s award and thanked all the past presidents for their work in making the MGA a success. This year, the MGA started the season with 224 members, 103 of those attended the breakfast. Thanks was given to Nick Duffy, the pro staff representative, for his hard work in keeping the MGA working smoothly on game days. There was mention that the Board had conducted a survey of the membership this year. Mark then introduced a series of speakers. First, Bill Chepla explained the new games the MGA will be playing this year. The 9 Hole game and the Ironman Challenge were also introduced. Bill explained the nuts and bolts of how the MGA Challenge will be conducted and how prizes will be awarded. Next, Jeff Mack, our Golf Course Superintendent, made an excellent, in-depth presentation of the status of our courses that make CCL’s golf courses premier courses to play. Jeff also mentioned the Campaign For Excellence being undertaken by the Club and how members can assist with the Campaign by keeping our courses in good shape by fixing divots, following the 90 degree cart path rule and repairing divots. Greg Guman, our Director of Instruction, discussed various golf development programs and how much he enjoyed working with the membership to improve their game. Tim Meeker from the Tournament Committee provided an update on the 2011 Tournament Schedule. He also stated that the committee is making an effort to make the tournaments consistent to time of year, format and awards are concerned. Chuck Qualey discussed and provided pictures of the awards as well as discussed the vendors. The meeting concluded by noting the 2011 MGA Handbooks were available and that the first golf game of the year would start at 9 a.m. Opening Day was overcast and cool with 116 members participating.

This technique will deaden the putt and make it much easier to control the speed on an ultra fast downhiller. Give it a try; it’s an amazing little trick. Good luck and have fun!

If you are able to input data in the computer, be a stroke and turn judge or announce the meets, please note the dates the training sessions are held. The league requires we have a certain amount of adults in the training for these positions to participate in the Wilmington League. Contact Heather Schild at [email protected] if you are able to help us! Training Sessions for Volunteers (each team must have 4 parents for the stroke and clinic) Stroke and Turn clinics: May 24 and 26, YWCA at 6 p.m. - Computer clinic: May 26, YWCA at 6 p.m. THE 12 DEADLY SINS OF THE GOLF SWING by Michael Critchfield & Greg Guman The “C” posture swing fault can cause a plethora of problems in your golf swing. If you hunch over your putter and promote the “C” posture, you are overexerting your spine. Good posture is key for a consistent swing. To see if you have a “C” posture problem, stand sideways to a mirror and ground your golf club. Take a look and see if your head, middle and low back are in line. In example (1A), I am demonstrating a “C” posture. In example (1B), I am doing my best to get my head back, shoulders back and look down so I can still see the ball. If my head and shoulders are in line, how can I see the ball? The answer is simple: hinge from the waist! If you practice good posture, it's easier to keep that stance and see the ball! In example (2A + 2B), I am performing a corrective exercise to restore upper and middle spine mobility. To perform these exercises correctly, stand about two feet away from the wall with your knees bent and back leaning against the wall. Attempt to get your head back as close to the wall as possible. Then from the extended position with the arms, attempt to bring the elbows to a 45 degree bend while maintaining contact with the wall. This is called the “Freeze” exercise and is a great way to restore the mobility and flexibility. This exercise can be challenging, so take it slow and do your best. Feel free to contact Greg or Michael with any questions. If you have interest in a corresponding group exercise class with a focus on these issues, please let us know. 11 EXERCISE SCHEDULE MONDAY 7-7:55 a.m. 8-8:55 a.m. 9-10 a.m. 10-11 a.m. Strictly Strength (Anne) Cardio Interval (Lynn) Fit 4 Life Cardio/ Strength (Lynn) Pilates Foundations (Jamie) TUESDAY 7-7:55 a.m. 8-8:55 a.m. 9-9:55 a.m. 10-11 a.m. 5-6 p.m. Core-n-Stretch (Jackie) Pump & Sweat (Marie) ZUMBA (Jackie) Boot Camp (Marissa) Yoga (Kathy)* WEDNESDAY 7-7:55 a.m. Strictly Strength (Tami) 8-8:55 a.m. Pilates (Tami)* 9-10 a.m. Fit 4 Life Cardio/ Strength (Lynn) 10-11 a.m. Fundamentals of Yoga (Marissa) 4-4:55 p.m. ZUMBA (Jackie) 5-5:45 p.m. Flexbility 4 Guys (Dana) THURSDAY 7-7:55 a.m. 8-8:55 a.m. 9-9:55 a.m. 10-11 a.m. 5-6 p.m. Core-n-Stretch (Jackie) Step On It!

She offered guidelines for butterfly gardening and answered our questions. We thank her for spending time with us. April is one of my favorite months. Our lawns are green and the trees and flowers are outstanding, as we drive around our beautiful community. Best of all, we have our Spring Garden tour of four homes in Landfall. It will be on Wednesday, April 13 (rain or shine). Come to the Landfall Clubhouse at 1 p.m. for our usual refreshments and socializing, followed by a brief business meeting. Ann Jones will then give us the names and directions to our generous neighbors, who are sharing their gardens with us. We suggest you wear comfortable walking shoes. Two of the gardens are on Howes Creek, both are large and special. Another is an old, established garden filled with azaleas and other elements of surprise. Our fourth garden is on the waterway with both established landscape and newer plantings around their swimming pool. We would appreciate it if you could carpool as you leave to tour the gardens. It would help with the parking. Don't forget, April 11 is the first annual Games Day to benefit the Good Shepherd Center, at the Landfall Clubhouse at 1 p.m. Call Margaret Smith or Pat Brandt for additional information. Last, but not least, is our trip to Atlanta, Georgia on Wednesday, April 27. The bus will leave promptly at 6:00 a.m. from the Arboretum Gate. Your food donations will be given to Good Shepherd this month. If you are new to Landfall, come to our next meeting and check us out. Membership is only $25.00 a year. We would love to have you join us. 19th Annual Coastal Classic Celebrity Golf Tournament The New Hanover Regional Medical Center Foundation Board of Directors and Staff invite you to participate in the 19th annual Coastal Classic Celebrity Golf Tournament!
