General Manager's Scorecard
Greetings from Bright’s Creek
 
Project Update
Thank you to the Villa POA Board, Villa Homeowners, and Bright’s Creek Partners for
coordinating a project to re-paint the three buildings and Greeter’s Cottage. Each building will take approximately three weeks and is expected to start in the next couple of weeks once the Greeter’s Cottage is completed.

Work continues on our Amenity Barn with a substantial amount of grading and site work completed over this past week. Please note that we request that all club-owned golf carts remain on club property and the golf course. Golf carts should not be used to access roads or locations off the property. If you are taking in the beautiful new views from the top of the Amenity Barn site, please use your personal vehicle. This supports community safety for all Members and Guests as well as extends the maintenance life of our golf cart fleet.

Our final Member-Member, the Waterwheel, will be held this coming weekend on October 29th and 30th. We look forward to seeing our Members participate in this great club tradition. On October 28th, we will host a complimentary wine and cheese reception at our Equestrian Barn. Heather Chambers and her team have done a great job getting the barn ready for boarding and event activities. The Water Wheel will include a three-course dinner on Friday evening and following the second round of golf on Saturday, an afternoon “cookout” and social will take place on the back deck. We will be open for dinner on Thursday, October 28th. Please call the concierge desk for additional information and to make a reservation.

In honor of Veteran’s Day on November 11th, we will host a closest-to-the-hole contest on the Hog Hole benefiting Guiding Reins. Guiding Reins uses the relationship between horses and humans to help veterans, military personnel, first responders, and their families cope with life’s challenges and build beneficial and effective relationships. Alicia Sama guides our Equestrian Team and has been a leader with Guiding Reins to assist our Veterans and rescue horses. We are proud to support this great cause and recognize our Veterans at the same time.

Regards and thank you,

Steve Alden | General Manager
