Good Stewards of Golf A Letter From Your Golf Chair

Dear Member, Spring is here! What a

• The lottery system will only permit one golf course to be selected for the lottery. • If you do not receive a tee time on the course you selected, you may be moved to the other golf course as a courtesy. Being moved to the other course is also a points-based system. STEWARDSHIP The care we each take as stewards of the Club’s assets is very important. One of the most significant assets the Club owns is the golf courses. Great lengths and significant resources are committed each year to ensure great course conditions. Although we have a tremendous Golf Course Maintenance Team, we need to make sure we are doing our share. Please be mindful of filling your divots with sand, picking up tees, repairing ball marks, and raking bunkers. In closing, I want to wish everyone a fantastic golf season. Please know your Golf Committee and Board of Directors are committed to providing you with the highest quality experiences and facilities possible. Fairways & Greens, Jim Kiker AAC Golf Chairman

wonderful time of year it is. Fresh off an exciting Masters Tournament, it is easy to get excited about the game. Here at AAC, there is much to be excited about as well. With the reopening of the Riverside Course, we have more tee

time availability and a full complement of tournaments and events to participate in. In addition, your Golf Committee and Board of Directors have been focused on your member experience and the role we all play in the stewardship of the club. LOTTERY SYSTEM FOR TEE TIMES The demand for play on the golf courses has been high. AAC utilizes a computerized points-based lottery system to determine who receives tee times. The points-based lottery system has been initiated to ensure that equal and fair distributions of tee times are accomplished. Below are some very important items to be aware of regarding the tee time lottery system. • To increase the likelihood of receiving a tee time, make the time you are available to play as wide as possible. • Canceling or not showing up for a tee time within 24 hours will make receiving a future tee time more difficult. The tee time system will automatically assign points to a member(s) who cancels or no shows a tee time. The more points you have, the more difficult it is to receive a tee time. Points are determined on a rolling 14-day average.
