Message From the Professional Staff,
Good Afternoon,
We have had a very busy couple of weeks here at Lookout Point which were highlighted by our Club Championships - both for our flighted players as well as open, senior and junior players. This past weekend, we ran the 2nd LP CUP (our own version of the Ryder Cup). It was a great weekend where many members had a opportunity to play with people they have never played with before and socialize on the patio afterwards with members who they have not had a chance to share a drink with. A great time was had by all. Congrats to Team Steinschifter (Captained by Head Teaching Professional Adam Steinschifter) on a dominate victory.
Looking ahead, we have a few more August events - including our always popular Member/Member. Registration for the Member/Member closes on Friday, August 20th. Make sure you register before then. With a current field of over 150 registrants we expect both to use the majority of the tee sheet on both Saturday, August 28th and Sunday, August 29th.
The Driving Range schedule has been modified, and will remain open on Monday, August 23rd (Our Guest Appreciation Day). It will be closed however - until likely 3:00pm on Monday, August 30th as our maintenance team continue to improve the conditions of the practice facility.
Congrats to Andrew Mitchell who made his first hole in one at Lookout Point on Thursday, August 12th. A day earlier Joe Duffy also made an ace on the 5th hole. Great shooting guys!!!

NEWS FROM THE GOLF COURSE…
This past week we aerified the fairways and vented the greens. Below are a couple of photos of our team in action.
Due to the fact that the greens have been vented (which is a form of softening the surface) it will be easier to make more ball marks. Please do your part in repairing your marks and any others you see on the greens.
