Greetings from
the Village by the Water
Chuck Pigg,
Reserve Community Manager
Summertime is Here! Memorial Day Weekend’s Blessing of the
Fleet Celebration marked the official kick-off of boating season, and
we look forward to enjoying the beautiful warm weather, the refreshing waters of Lake Keowee,
and the signature summer events we have grown to love here at The Reserve. I'm happy to report
that our real estate office has enjoyed an increase in activity and summer 2012 is ahead of last
year’s pace—both signs of an improving economy. The anticipation of our newest neighborhood,
Village Point, and a growing selection of lakefront homesites offer great new opportunities for
families to begin enjoying life on the water! See you at the lake! —Chuck

Summertime Brings the Sizzle
of Excitement to The Reserve!
While the “season” officially started Memorial Day Weekend, our Spring/Summer Days &
Hours of Operations began April 29th. Please take a moment to review them in this
Newsletter. Hours have been expanded at The Orchard House and The Market to provide
food 7 nights a week. In addition, this year the golf course was open on Tuesday after
Mother’s Day and Memorial Day. We will continue our holiday opening of the course on
Tuesdays for Father’s Day, July 4th week (July 3rd) and Labor Day weekend (Sept. 4th). This
year’s Fireworks Display will take place on Wednesday, July 4th and the Pool and Snack Bar
will be open the entire week of July 4th. Golf, fitness, tennis, children’s and social events
are planned all summer long, so please take the time to go to the Calendar of Events on
our website for all the scheduled events (www.ReserveAtLakeKeowee.com/events).
Dates are booking fast in 2012!

ATTHE MARKET
The Club's Advisory Committee,
Golf Committee, and Social Committee are made up of your fellow members, all
of whom have been very busy helping to promote events and are instrumental in
creating what we think is going to be the best season ever! Their names and information
can be found in this newsletter and they encourage you to contact them with any
comments, concerns, or new ideas. A handful of committee members rotate off their
respective committees annually, allowing new members to join. If you have an interest in
serving on any of these committees please contact me directly.
This is a busy time of the year here at The Reserve—especially on the lake—and our
Marina now has two new 22’ Cobalt boats to go along with the new pontoon boats
we bought last year. Whether it is on land or on the lake, we want you to come join the
summer fun!
I look forward to seeing you around the Club. As always, I can be reached at the
Orchard House (864-869-2100) or via e-mail: [email protected].
Sincerely, Frank Santoro, C.H.A., Club General Manager

GEOCACHING
Summer Fitness Challenge: Make a Splash!
A High-Tech Treasure Hunt
Our 2012 Summer Fitness Challenge is centered around the coolest of
exercises—swimming and water aerobics! Keep track of how many miles
and how long you swim and/or perform water aerobics weekly. Our water
aerobics classes count for this challenge as well! Check the fitness website
or stop by the Fitness Center for more details on this challenge.
More “Geocaches” Hidden in The Reserve!
Geocaching at The Reserve is yet another fun outdoor activity for
adults, kids, and families! Similar to hunting for hidden treasures,
participants use a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver or mobile device
and other navigation techniques to find hidden containers called geocaches.
For those who have caught the “Geocaching Bug” as well as those who
haven’t yet, we have added several more caches (for a total of 15!) for you
to explore this Summer!
Learn more about Geocaching and get the coordinates from Lauren
Parnell in the Fitness Center, or on the Fitness page of our website:
www.ReserveAtLakeKeowee.com/Fitness
Codes should be turned in to Lauren when found. Hurry! Participants
who find the first 10 caches will receive a free ice cream at the Market.
Caches 11 -15 are more challenging,
so participants who discover the
final five get a bonus prize!

VillagePoint
A special spot along the pure mountain lake waters
of Lake Keowee is taking shape!
For the first time in history, The Reserve at Lake Keowee is releasing a developer-planned
neighborhood of fourteen homes along the Marina Park, a stone’s throw from its waterfront
Village and community amenities. Village Point features three home plans, ranging in size
from approximately 2,650 to 3,750 square feet, each of which may be customized by
adding terraces, garages and carports, and upper levels.
Hop on the golf cart and
follow the neighborhood
path to the Village Market
for a bite to eat. While
you’re at it, pick up a
picnic lunch for the boat
and your mail at the
Post Office.
Walk to the marina,
where Commodore
Carlisle and his team have your boat fueled and cleaned,
innertubes inflated, or your canoe or kayak at the ready
for a day of fun on the water.
Breeze up to the
Great Lawn for any
number of signature
gatherings among
neighbors and friends,
or pop over to The
Orchard House for a
chef-inspired dinner, or 18
holes on the Jack Nicklaus
Signature Golf Course.
Exercise the dog—
or better yet, take a
date-night stroll through the manicured grounds of Village Point,
dotted with artistic focal elements, lush landscape, and statuary, or
extend your walk along the boardwalk overlooking The Reserve’s
200-slip Marina at the magical hour of sunset on Lake Keowee.
This is a day in the life at Village Point.
Village Point is drawing significant interest, and as such, is a rare
opportunity to enjoy a premier lakefront lifestyle from the mid
$600,000s.
NEW HOMES FROM THE MID 600 S
ASK ABOUT THE INTRODUCTORY INCENTIVES!
This prime spot offers lake views, private boat slips, and all the conveniences
of the marina, just steps away from your home. Great architecture, immediate
access to the Village and all the club amenities in your back yard should make
Village Point one of our most popular neighborhoods.

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE WATER
Marina Community:
Your Concierge
to Lake Keowee
If your family is like most, you typically have too much to do and not enough
time to do it all. In the summer, the time that’s most important to most of
us transcends our to-do lists: time together, spent with family and friends. In
the summer, you want enough time to hear the water when it calls you, the
sounds of nature, your children and grandchildren laughing and your favorite
songs playing. Summer is about finding time to relish
the small things. And that’s why, particularly in the
summer, we seek out assistance and services to make
our lives easier — to take a bit off our plates so that
we can make some room to relax.
Enter Carlisle Jones, Commodore of The Reserve at
Lake Keowee Marina. Think of Carlisle as our
The RLK Marina and its staff, led by
Commodore Carlisle, offer the following
services to assist you in maximizing your
summer season on the lake:
Slips for lease
concierge who connects you to the best on-the-water experiences and
offers a cadre of services to make your “lake life” simpler, easier, and
more enjoyable while you’re at The Reserve. As any good concierge would,
Carlisle takes special care of the Marina and the families who
use it as a resource, and over the years, many have come to consider him
indispensable. He came to The Reserve in 2003, and
has been the Commodore since the Marina opened.
“Over the years, the Marina has expanded our
services to meet the needs of a growing membership.
Our jobs are to make enjoying the lake as effortless as
possible,” Commodore Carlisle explains.
Watercraft Rentals
Marina Commodore, Carlisle Jones
The Reserve’s Marina is equipped with 200 slips which can be individually
leased on an annual basis. Slip leases include complimentary power and
water, one in-and-out service at the marina (your boat is put into the
water in April and pulled out of the water in October, at no additional
charge).
Day Docking
Many Members who own their own boats take advantage of the Marina’s
daytime docking services. Certain slips are designated as day docks and
are often used to park the boat while families enjoy the Pool Pavilion,
grab a bite to eat or stock up on some groceries at The Market, check
their mail at the Village Post Office, or attend Sunday worship services –
all within easy walking distance of the Marina. Some even take a golf cart
up to the range to hit a few balls or play a round of golf on the Jack
Nicklaus Signature Golf Course. Often, getting to The Village Center is
quicker by boat than by car.
No boat? No problem! The Reserve’s Marina has a
variety of watercraft rentals for Members to enjoy,
including pontoons (tri-toons), two Cobalt-brand
open-bow cruisers, innertubes, knee boards, and
skis. Kayak and canoe rentals are complimentary
“A month after we bought our homesite at The Reserve, we met
Carlisle and bought a boat. We were first-time boaters and
knew nothing about what to do. We weren’t comfortable driving the boat because we’d never done it before, and Carlisle
has been an excellent source of help. Having him to teach us
made us feel very, very comfortable. "
“Any of the folks at the Marina can help us if we are concerned
or have questions. When our guests leave our home, they say
they can see why we decided to build a home here. They all
have such a positive experience at The Reserve.”
— Cindy and Erv Burbach, RLK Members since 2007
Boat Detailing
The Marina’s most popular service is boat detailing, which normally
takes place in the spring when a boat is put into the water for the season.
In the fall, the detailing includes cleaning the bottom of the boat before
it is placed into storage.
for Reserve Members. The Reserve’s Discovery Guests receive vouchers
that cover the rental of a boat for half a day. The guest is required to pay
for the fuel, but the Marina staff throws in fun items like innertubes and
knee boards at no extra charge.
Your Boat’s Ready When You Are
Lessons
Let’s say you live out of town and want to have your boat ready to enjoy
as soon as you arrive at The Reserve. Done! Simply call ahead and the
Marina staff will put your boat in the water, top it off with gas, clean it,
and inflate your innertubes. When you’re finished, Carlisle and his team
clean your boat, cover it, pull it out of the water, and put it back into storage.
Many members who are new to the lake want to ensure they are properly
trained and comfortable maneuvering their boat and solve basic troubleshooting issues that may arise. Carlisle and his team give boat driving
lessons, concentrating on all major functions of the watercraft including
emphasis in parking and docking the boat. Interested in learning how to
wakeboard or ski? Allow the Marina to connect you with an experienced
instructor! Lake Keowee is surprisingly calmer than most lakes of its size,
even in the summer months, and is an ideal lake on which to refresh your
skills and learn new ones.
Service Your Boat Without Ever Leaving Your Dock
Many members have their own dock with their own boat. Any service
the Marina offers at its own docks can also be done at yours. A popular
service is on-water, full-service fueling. A member of the Marina staff
will come get your boat, fill it with gas, and return it to your dock.
Watercraft Repair and Maintenance
Carlisle and his team can act as liaisons to manage the necessary repairs
or maintenance that your boat, pontoon, or jet ski requires. The Marina
staff has relationships with the most trusted companies for watercraft
repair and maintenance. For Members who do not own a trailer to pull
their boat, Marina staff can pull the boat out of the water and take it for
servicing. More minor repairs, such as the replacement of a battery, can
be done on-the-spot at The Reserve’s Marina.
Fishing Guides & Touring
The lakes of the Upstate—Lake Keowee, Lake Jocassee, and Lake Hartwell
—are a natural draw for avid and amateur fishers alike. The Marina staff
can connect you with the lakes’ best fishing guides and, many times, can
provide their own personal insights and knowledge of the wildlife found
in our local waters. The Marina staff is happy to clean your catch for you,
which you can then take back to your home or ask the Chef at the
Orchard House to prepare to your liking. For those who want to take in
nature with a tour, kayak tours of Lake Jocassee are regularly held by
RLK’s Fitness Director.
Winterizing and Boat Storage
The Reserve’s Marina offers complimentary, uncovered boat storage to
all Members. RLK’s Master Plan includes the future construction of a
covered boat storage facility
This story is the second in a series that will continue
throughout 2012 highlighting the Marina.

Summer is here, and what a great time of year it is!
There’s nothing better at The Reserve than playing a round of golf and then relaxing by the pool or out on
the lake. The golf shop would like to say thank you to Mother Nature for extending us such a mild winter
this year and to all of our members who participated in our recent events.
Here are the highlights:
Superintendent’s Revenge
For those who may not be familiar with The Superintendent’s Revenge,
it is an event where our Superintendent and staff try their best to make
each hole as hard as possible. Each four person team, playing in a scramble
format, has to overcome awkward tee boxes, ridiculous pin placements,
various yardages, a tractor and any other debris left out on the course by
the maintenance staff. This year’s winners, either by skill or by much
practice outside of the fairway, were: Bob Bacon, Doug Barker,
Kimberly Martin and Chris Vincent! Congratulations!!

awarded. The lowest 2-day net total determines our Founder’s Cup
Champion. We congratulate Mr. David Kowalski for winning the Men’s
Division, and Mrs. Kathleen Carney for winning the Women’s Division
—despite the wet conditions.
We invite all couples to come and have a date night with a little golf
thrown in. These fun events are nine-hole, four-person scrambles with
your spouse as your partner. After play, enjoy a social dinner at the club
where all winners receive a hug from the pros at the golf shop!!!
All of our Nine and Dines will begin with a 4 pm shotgun start.
This year’s remaining Nine and Dine dates are:

JUNIOR GOLF
June begins our Junior Golf season and, as in the past, the golf shop will
offer Saturday Clinics for juniors of all ages. There will be five two hour
clinics and each will start at 9am with a break in the middle. Clinic times
have been scheduled earlier this year to help our juniors beat the
heat.
We are very excited to introduce SNAG golf to our juniors this year.
For those not familiar with SNAG golf, it has been described as
miniature golf and regulation golf mixed all into one. It’s a fantastic
way for our juniors to experience the game for the first time while
learning full shots, chipping and putting.

Victorious Jen Bacon
Sombrero Sandbagger Open
“Dos DesPROrados”
Congratulations go to Kathy & John Carney and Jen & Bob Bacon for being
our 2nd Annual Sombrero Sandbagger Open Winners! This year’s format
was a 4-person, 9-hole scramble in which 45 people participated. Drinks
were served prior to playing and a Cinco de Mayo celebration took place at
the Halfway House where everyone enjoyed a Mexican dinner. In a Cinco de
Mayo showdown, the Carneys and Bacons faced off with Ken Marinelli and
the Gaddy family, and it all came down to the destruction of a piñata to
determine the winner (A.K.A. a “Pinata Playoff”). Jen Bacon showed her
power with an over the top move using a pitching wedge—she knocked it
down, sealing the Bacon victory. We hope to see everyone back next year
and invite all new members as well as their Legacy Members!
We again invite all of our juniors to come and have fun, learn golf
and meet someone while doing so.
The following are the dates for this year’s clinics.
July 7 • July 21 • July 28-29 (Jr. Club Championship)
JUNIOR CAMP
The Reserve will be offering full-day camps on three consecutive days, July
5, 6 & 7. Each day will offer something different from each department.
Please mark your calendars and check our website for more details.

Some Folks Never Slow Down
Jerry Post's racing days are FAR from over!
Nancy and Jerry Post may have built their home here at The Reserve
in 2004—but they have continued a fast-paced lifestyle of traveling
around the U.S. fueling Jerry's extreme hobby and racing career.
Jerry has been racing for 20
years with his Post Racing crew
chief (and best friend), Howard Imhof, and his
wife Nancy cheering him on. “I have been a
'Motorhead' since age 14 when I hopped up a
motor scooter. I have owned a number of hot
rod cars over the years, and I like to wrench the
cars almost as much as driving,” says Jerry. He
has built four of his own cars and currently runs
in a class called American Sedan, racing highly
modified Camaros and Mustangs—usually
around 450 horsepower and similar
to the Trans Am series in the 60s.
Jerry has won many races in his
career, ranking as high as 3rd
nationally and 10th in 2011. He has
experienced several wrecks and even
taken a trip to the hospital, but was
never badly hurt. He and Nancy are
still enjoying life in the fast lane and
Reserve Racers Jerry and Nancy Post
have even encouraged some fellow
Reserve Members to join in the action...as spectators, for now!
It's obvious that Jerry enjoys every minute of his time on the track
and in the garage, and he wears his years of experience like a badge of
honor, referring to himself as “The Old Guy.” And he doesn't appear to
have plans to slow down any time soon: "You can play golf, ride horses,
go fishing, geocache, take your pick! Everyone needs a hobby, and this is
mine. I am the oldest in the class but still kick butt, and working out with
Lauren at The Reserve fitness facility is a great help keeping me in shape
to drive!"

Build Arbor and Garden
at A.R. Lewis Elementary
Years ago, Reserve Members unofficially “adopted" nearby A.R. Lewis
Elementary School as a place to volunteer and mentor. Most recently, a
group of Members decided to design and build an arbor in front of the
school to complement the flower gardens maintained by Nancy Kennedy
and Georgia Elley as part of their Master Gardener certification. The arbor
was designed and built by Janet Greiner, Doug Barker, Dan McGonigle
and Dave Kowalski with funds raised by The Reserve Garden Club. Special
thanks go to Georgia Elley who donated one of her paintings to be raffled
off for the fundraiser.

We are looking forward to another great summer season at the lake!
Hope you have made your plans to come and enjoy all that The Reserve
has to offer, whether it be a day on the lake, a friendly tennis match, a
dip in the pool, or a round of golf on our Jack Nicklaus Signature course.
Golfers, please take note of our maintenance dates listed below to assist
in your planning.
Exciting news! Chris Vincent and Kathryn Gravely have taken on a project
with Audubon International and are taking the necessary steps for The
Reserve to become a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary for golf
course properties. This program is an award winning education and certification program that helps golf courses protect our environment and preserve
the natural heritage of the game of golf. The program will document how
we are enhancing the valuable natural areas and wildlife habitats our property provides while also improving our efficiencies in minimizing harmful
impacts to the golf course grounds and surrounding environments. Once
this is completed, we will become one of, if not the first, in the Upstate of
South Carolina to become certified. Want to learn more? Find details on the
Audubon International website: www.auduboninternational.org
Maintenance Schedule for the rest of this year:
July 16–20: Golf course closed Monday – Friday – Aerify Greens with
¼” tine, Tees, Fairways, Collars and Verticut Fairways
October 22–23: Golf course closed Monday 22 – Aerify greens with ½”
tine, 2” x 2” spacing with sand topdressing
If you have any questions on this or anything else related to The Reserve,
please give me a call. See you on the course!

The architectural review process continues to keep our office busy (that’s a
good thing) with some 28 applications for either new homes, docks or landscaping requests. There are eleven new home applications in 2012 thus far.
Our meetings are held in the Hill House offices on a monthly basis at 2:00
pm. If you have any POA-related questions or would like to schedule an
architectural review meeting, please contact us.
