Moments of Life Made Possible by Hospice and a Little Dog… Summer 2018 3 0 Ye a r s Accredited by the of Service Joint 1988-2018 Commission Moments of Life made possible by Hospice and a little dog… By Janice Valentino as told by Marilyn Serino It had been about six weeks that my brother Michael had been living at the Kaplan Family Hospice Residence, where I too had been staying for about three weeks. It was mid-February when Mike began talk to me about a dog. I asked if he was talking about his daughter’s dog, Delilah. He replied No. I asked if he was referring to my own dog, Piper. Again, Mike told me No. Mike mentioned the dog a few more times until he finally feel asleep that afternoon. I had no idea what dog he was talking about and soon forgot about it. Later that day, I overheard staff members talking about a little dog that was sleeping under the bushes on the grounds of the residence. Apparently, this little dog was either lost or abandoned and had been seeking refuge from the cold on the property. Being the dog lover that I am, I rescued the little visitor who was badly in need of some TLC, brought her home to be bathed, fed and took her to our vet to be checked out. I was thrilled when she received a clean bill of health. When I returned to Kaplan to be with my brother Mike, I was grateful to be able to bring along my new little friend. When I walked into Mike’s room, his first response was “Oh wow, Crash is here”. Crash had been our brother Gary’s little dog. Three years before, Gary had also been at Kaplan. Shortly after Gary passed away, so did Crash. Mike was right, this little dog did resemble Crash. I took this as a sign that Mike and I were not alone and our brother Gary, and Crash were watching out for us. This little dog, who we named “Mikey” soon found her way on Mike’s bed and nestled up to him as if she knew it was where she always belonged. I believe this little dog was meant to become a part of our family. I am grateful for her and the joy she brought my brother Mike at the end of his life. The memories of the wonderful moments that were shared at the Kaplan Family Hospice Residence with my brother Mike and “Mikey” will always be treasured.

So, a big list and lots of golfers is bound to Ncause disagreement. That’s why publishers like rankings; they get readers talking about your content. I know how this works. When GCA did our own course ranking, six years ago, voted for only by golf architects, we released the results over a two-week period on our website, and our traffic numbers went through the roof. ADAM LAWRENCE Some of the rankings like to claim that their list is the most credible, in fact objectively created, because voters are required to rate courses by certain criteria. This is natural: there is little point doing a ranking unless it has credibility. Unfortunately, of course, the criteria are themselves subjective (as well as impenetrable – I have still never heard a good explanation of what ‘shot values’ means and how it can be measured). PHOTO: EVAN SCHILLER Yet, for all their flaws, rankings are important. For a publicly-accessible course, a good performance on a major ranking can result in a lot more visitors; for private clubs, there’s no doubt that memberships at top 100 courses are more desirable “Any landscape is a than elsewhere.

  • Tripp Davis and Associates Hired by the Powelton Club for Bunker Restoration Project
    Tripp Davis and Associates Hired by The Powelton Club for Bunker Restoration Project Norman, OK (January 9, 2019) — Tripp Davis and Associates (TDA) is overseeing a major bunker restoration project at The Powelton Club in Newburgh, New York. The historic club in the heart of the Hudson River Valley was founded in 1892 and is one of the oldest clubs in the U.S. The course was originally designed by Devereux Emmet in 1926. The TDA plan is to rebuild the bunkers in Emmet’s style with steep grass faces and strategic positioning, while keeping the overall square footage more manageable. The bunkers at Powelton had become too large, historically speaking, and Davis and team will carefully downsize the overall square footage throughout the golf course, in keeping with Emmet’s style of designing slender bunkers. Functionally, TDA, along with golf course builder Frank O’Dowd of Intergolf, is installing better drainage, bunker liners and a better grade of sand so that the playing quality of the bunkers is better and the sand is easier to maintain over time. 16th hole “We were honored to be selected for this renovation and restoration work at The Powelton Club and it was because of our knowledge of Devereux Emmet and our overall reputation for historical work and a track record of staying on budget,” said Davis. “Once we have completed our work, the members are going to see their golf course suddenly look ‘older’ with a more classic bunker style but with much better sand. Even though bunkers are supposed to be places to avoid strategically, I am really looking forward to seeing the members play out of them.” Construction started in early October of 2018 and should be completed by Spring 2019.
