Message From the Professional Staff,
Good Afternoon,
First and foremost, welcome to Rob Hickson - our new General Manager. Rob will be around the clubhouse this week meeting members and getting settled in. Be sure to stop by to say hello and give him the warm Lookout Point welcome he deserves.
Father’s Day is fast approaching! The Golf Shop is now open for business - we have a large selection of gift ideas and great products for that special guy (or gal) in your life. This week’s featured item is a 2 pack of Titleist Tour Soft golf balls. These balls retail for $44.99 each, but for a limited time you can get 2 dozen for $75 + HST. Limited quantity available. Not available online.
2 for $75 (+HST)
Regular price: $44.99 each
This week’s “photo(s) of the week” comes to us from Phil Goodwin & Carolyn Culliton. This “guy” can be found wandering the 17th fairway, going back and forth between the pond on 12 and pond behind the 16th green. Let’s have some fun, Mr. Turtle needs a name. Comment at the bottom of today’s blog and the best name will win a sleeve of Pro V1 golf balls. So far, my daughter Peyton is in the lead with “Rocky The Turtle”….because he looks like a rock :)

HOLE IN ONE(S)
2 weeks “re-opened” and 2 hole in ones! Both on Thursdays. Congratulations to Chris Singleton & Matt Bosela who both made their first hole-in-ones at Lookout Point Country Club. This was Matt’s 2nd of his career, and Chris’ 1st. Both gentlemen didn’t see the ball go in the hole - if you see Chris, you will have to ask why….it’s a pretty good story.

LIGHTNING POLICY
This week we are starting to see some Thunderstorm’s in the forecast. Now is the perfect time to remind everyone of our Lightning policy.
Lookout Point monitors the weather with an online radar. If lightning is in the area, a horn will be blown by the Golf Shop and Halfway House Team Members. All play shall cease in the event of lightning. It is each member’s and guest’s responsibility to be aware of lightning and seek shelter immediately upon hearing the sound of the horn.
Put safety first! As soon as you hear thunder:
Seek: lowest elevation, large buildings, fully enclosed vehicles.
Avoid: trees, open areas, elevated areas, metal objects (golf cart, fences, maintenance equipment, power lines).
