TREASURER Bob Koutnik In today’s golf world it is becoming increasingly important Fox Run Country Club that all of the Allied Associations work together to drive the Kathy Aznavorian golf industry. It is plain in today’s economic climate that the Fox Hills Golf & Banquet golf industry has changed.

That The Natural is a net loss of 27 golf facilities. For the first time since 1945, Ed Clark Sandy Ridge Golf Course Frank Guastella more courses closed than opened. The excess of golf courses Red Fox Run coupled with outside influences and time constraints have Jim Dewling created a golf consumer who can be selective. Total Golf Inc. Rodger Jabara Today, golf facilities must focus on improving the overall experience. That means a Crystal Mountain Resort consistent product and service. And it means all areas of the facility must rely upon each Jim Jeltema other to be successful, because no longer is any single aspect of the golf course a standalone Clearbrook Golf Club entity. Toni Joers The expanded Golf Industry Show, which this year included the National Golf Course Concord Hills Owners Association, the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America and the Lynn Miller Club Managers Association of America, appears to be a one-stop shopping hub for learning Indian Lake Hills how to be successful.

Page 4 Important Information for Golf Courses Employing Minors and/or Serving Alcohol By John Seiser, Senior Vice President, Certified Insurance Counselor, Kapnick Insurance We all know another golf season is rapidly approaching. With the labor costs increasing these days, you are looking for creative ways to do the same amount of work with less people and at a lower cost. You have all saved money on your insurance this year, however, in order to keep you insurance rates down, you still need to pay special attention to legal and safety issues. At the MGCOA annual meeting in Frankenmuth this past December, Kate had Bob Hood from Willingham & Cote, P.C. Attorneys at Law discussed some important issues regarding employment. The Michigan Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division has a great handout regarding young employees. I highly recommend getting your hands on a copy if you employ anyone under age 18. In addition to Bob’s information, I recently obtained some basic information from the Department of Labor answering some frequently asked questions.

  • Card Games for Individuals
    Card Games for individuals Patience The game is played using a tableau of seven columns. Running from left to right, the first column contains one card, the second contains two, the third three, etc. In each column, the top card should be face up and the rest face down. Deal by placing one card, face up, on the table in front of you then, to this card’s right, six more face down. Repeat this row by row, dealing one less card each time. As well as the face-up cards in the tableau, you’ll work with every third card in the remaining pack, one at a time. Move through the pack by taking three cards from the top and turning them over, creating a new face-up pile. When you’ve passed through the deck, turn it over and start again. In the tableau, a card from the pack may be placed on another card that is one rank higher and of an alternate colour. An eight of hearts, for example, may be placed on either a nine of spades or a nine of clubs - both black suits. Sequences of grouped cards can be moved around according to the same rules as individual cards. Whenever you free up a face-down card on a tableau column, turn it over. If a column is emptied, you can shift any card or sequence into it. If an ace comes into play, position it face up above the tableau, thus beginning a foundation. Foundations are suited and built from ace to king.

  • Palmer Woods Centennial Gala
    CELEBRATE! PALMER WOODS CENTENNIAL GALA Detroit Golf Club Saturday, September 19, 2015 Palmer Woods Centennial Logos s part of the Palmer Woods 100-Year Celebration, the Palmer Woods Centennial Committee sponsored a design competition to create a new visual logo for the Aneighborhood’s Centennial year. Artists were invited to submit their vision for a Centennial logo. The following artists submitted the winning logos: PHIL LEWIS – 1st Place Winner The winning logo was conceived by Phil Lewis, a lifelong Detroiter, Cass Tech graduate and recipient of a BFA from the Center for Creative Studies majoring in Illustration. “My mother used to say I was born with a paintbrush in my hand. Drawing was an escape for me,” remarks Phil. His natural ability was honed at Cass Tech under the tutelage of well known teachers such as Dr. Cledie Taylor, Marian Stephens and Irving Berg. Entering the contest to design a logo in celebration of the Palmer Woods Centennial was an easy decision for Phil. He loves the city of Detroit and considers Palmer Woods one of Detroit’s jewels. Even though he does not live in the neighborhood, he is good friends with residents and very aware of the community. Phil’s logo design was inspired by the beauty, history and character of the homes. Consequently, his logo effectively captures the spirit of our strong and beautiful community. Currently Phil is the owner of Phil Lewis Studio and a Digital Content Artist for MRM McCann Advertising. As the winning artist for the neighborhood contest, Phil’s logo is featured on banners that are be placed on light posts within and along the perimeter of the neighborhood.

  • PLANT GROWTH REGULATORS for FINE TURF Bert Mccarty Plant Growth Retardants (PGR's) Or Inhibitors Are Increasingly Being Used To
    101 PLANT GROWTH REGULATORS FOR FINE TURF Bert McCarty Plant growth retardants (PGR's) or inhibitors are increasingly being used to suppress seedheads and leaf growth due to rising mowing costs and danger posed to operators and other personnel. Traditionally, plant growth retardants have been used in the South to suppress bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flugge.) or tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) seedhead production exclusively in low maintenance areas such as highway roadsides, airports, and golf course roughs. However, in recent years, new chemicals which may be used in higher maintained commercial turf situations have been developed. Several undesirable characteristics which have been associated with growth retardants include: phytotoxicity (burn) of treated leaves from 4 to 6 weeks following applications; reduced recuperative potential from physical damage to treated turf; and increased weed pressure due to reduced competition from treated turf. Normally, growth retardants are used in low maintenance areas; therefore, these undesirable characteristics do not pose a problem to most managers. However, several growth regulatory materials have recently been developed for use on hybrid bermudagrass fairways and St. Augustinegrass. Vertical topgrowth (clippings) is suppressed, but horizontal spread (runners) is not. Therefore, turf recovery from golf club divots and other injuries occurs while topgrowth remains suppressed. Other uses involve areas where mowing has been discontinued due to heavy rains, equipment failure, etc., but topgrowth remains suppressed if the grass is treated. Note: These retardants used on hybrid bermudagrass and St. Augustinegrass do not satisfactorily suppress seedhead development. PGRs are separated into two groups, Type I and Type II, based on their method of growth inhibition or suppression.
