All Around The Club TherehasbeenaflurryofactivityatbothClubssincethemembership(s)approvedthemergerinFebruary.Wehaveembarkedonanewjourneythatisbrimmingwithopportunityforthemembersandstaffalike.ThestaffandIarecommittedtoprovidingthemem-bers and their guests a welcoming atmosphere of service excellence inallthattheCluboffers.AsthePresidentsoutlinedintheirarticlein this newsletter, the merger closing is scheduled for June 30, 2017. Wenowunderstandspecificsofmergingoperationallyandthereare several operational changes because of the merger. I know that communication has been all but nonexistent during this transitional period; however, rest assured that we are committed to diligently com-municating timely information to help you assimilate all that the new Lookout Mountain Club will be doing to create the best experience for you, the member. So, let’s get started… Starting with this newsletter issue, there will only be one newsletter for the new Lookout Mountain Club covering all activity at both facilities. You will notice the newsletter has three main sections: Generalinfo.,FairylandfacilityandGolffacility.Thenewsletterwillevolve in the coming months as we gain experience with how to organize and communicate all that is happening at the Club. Please watchyourregularmail(aswellasemail)forspecialcommunicationsbetweennewslettermailings,whichwilldetailspecificchangesorpro-gramsthatcannotbefullyoutlinedinanewsletterorarenotificationsof a time-sensitive nature. We are in the process of merging the accounting offices. ThemainofficewillresideattheFairylandClubduetotherequiredspace needed to house a larger accounting operation and will include thebusiness/accountingoffice,GeneralManager’soffice,MembershipDirector’soffice,andtheCateringoffice.Consolidatingthephysicaloffices(membershipfiles,accountspayable,etc.)isonlyonehalfoftheofficemerger;wewillalsobemergingthememberdatabases,whichincludewebsite,emails,statements(billing),tyingthetwofacilities computer intranet/network together, etc. We will send a separatecommunicationwithspecificinformationregardingthenewdues structure as outlined and approved in the merger agreement for GolfMembersasapprovedbythemembership(s)inFebruary.Therewill also be a special, separate communication dedicated to website, online statements and bill pay options, email, and new services for online event reservation/registration. The first operational (merger) consolidation was to pull lunch operations together. This change has already been imple-mented beginning the week of June 13th and includes Sunday brunch. Given the focus of lunch at the Golf Club, and the need to continue food operations during the day to facilitate golf play, it was an obvious and easy decision to move all lunch, and breakfast, service to the Golf
Club. There will no longer be regular lunch or brunch service provid-eddailyattheFairylandClub;however,luncheons,banquetsandotherspecialluncheventsmaystillbebookedattheFairylandClubthroughourCateringDirectorTammyPuryear.Formoredetailsseebelow.AllmenuscanbeviewedonlineatthecurrentFairylandweb-site at fairylandclub.org under the dining tab; you do not need to log in to view menus. These changes were emailed to the membership a few times, but we recognize that not all members use email as their main form of communication; therefore, in the future, as mentioned above, we will be sure to include in hard copy such 102 changes prior to implementation. The phone systems are also being “merged” together in the next few weeks, making it much easier for members to contact the Club at either of the facilities. Please continue to use the current contactlist(detailedinthisnewsletter)untilthenewsystemisfinal-ized. A detailed listing of phone numbers and how to make reserva-tions will be sent to the membership within the next few weeks. This newsletter also outlines the various programs through-out the Club. Notice the new barre class for the fitness center, as well as the new ball machine and pickleball for tennis. There are many summer programs such as water aerobics, fun camps, golf camps, etc. available to the entire membership. I look forward to seeing you at the Club!Victor Balcom II, CCMGeneral Manager/COO

Getting to Know YouThe Lookout Mountain Golf ClubAt a Glance Since the merger of the Clubs is imminent, we thought it would be a good opportunity to familiarize our FairylandClubmemberswithsomeofthefunfactsandfeatures of our partner, the Lookout Mountain Golf Club:• OriginallyfoundedastheFairylandGolfClubin1925, the golf club was part of Garnet Carter’s dream for anexclusiveresortcolonycalled“Fairyland”thatalsoincludedtheFairylandInn,whichistodayourFairylandClub.• The 18-hole, world-class golf course was designed by renowned American golf course architect Seth J. Raynor, who was the engineer and protégé of the most influentialarchitectinAmericagolf,C.B.MacDonald.• Scott Probasco, Sr. had made Raynor’s acquaintancein1923and,throughthisconnection,wasinstrumental in securing the noted architect to design the Lookout Mountain course.• Lookout Mountain was the last course that Raynor designed before his untimely death of pneumonia, at the age of 47, in 1926.• It is the only course Raynor built on a mountain, givingitauniquearchitecturaldesignofbeingbotha“links”and“inland”course.• It is currently one of only 35 Raynor courses left in existence today.• Itwasvoted“Top125ClassicalGolfCourse”byGolfweek Magazine in 2013.• Known as a true golfers’ golf course, it is a favorite among professional and amateur golfers alike.• The record for the Par 70 course is currently held by Pat Corey, who shot a 63 in the Chattanooga Men’s Metro Championship in 2001• Private lessons and clinics are available for players of all ages and abilities • There are a plethora of tournaments throughout the year, including the famous Swing Ding,
Member-Member(Men&Women),Pre-Masters,BorderWar, Paddy Whacker, Turkey Cup, Ladies Witches Scram-ble, Couples Nite Golf, Couples Turkey Tournament & Club Championships for Men/Women/Juniors. Though physically located in Georgia, the club is a member of the Tennessee Golf Association, PGA and the Chattanooga District Golf Association; and has hosted many presti-gious golf championships over the years, including the Tennessee State Amateur, Tennessee PGA, Chattanooga Amateur and the Women’s Southern Amateur.• Both the course and clubhouse are ideally po-sitioned to take advantage of the natural mountainous terrain and sweeping vista views.• Renovated in 2000, the clubhouse features a variety of dining and entertaining spaces, including the main dining room, a large covered terrace, private dining room, living room, bar and Men’s Grille; a Pro Shop stocked with premium golf attire and accessories; Ladies’ and Men’s locker rooms; and a Juniors’ room.

Use the following template as a starting point: Forupperbodytherearetwoprimaryplanesofmovement:vertical and horizontal. Within those two planes of movement you can push and you can pull. Here’s what that looks like: Horizontal push- chest press, bench press or push-ups. Horizontal pull- ring-rows or pulley rows. Vertical push- shoulder press with barbell or dumbbells, or push-press. Vertical pull- pull-ups, or pull-downs. You can use machines or free weights for these 4 movement patterns.

A View From The LinksMark Hearn, Golf Course SuperintendentCongratulations to all the Swing Ding Winners, from your
Grounds Maintenance Staff! Hello LMC Members, Weaddeddeeptineaerificationtoourusualventingofthe greens on the Monday after Swing Ding. Healing time was about 14 to 17 days vs. about 7 to 10 days for venting alone. The half inch holes take a bit longer to heal but the 7 inch depth will help the bent grass through the heat of summer. We will do the deep tine in April, as usual next year, if possible. Warmer weath-er was delayed until about June 12th this year. That is when we sawthefirstgoodsignofbermudagrowth.Wewillapplyextrafertilizertotheareasthinnedbydroughtlastseason.Wefinishedthedrainageprojectson4and10teesinJunewhentheBermudacouldgrowinquicker. FromJunethroughmidSeptemberwewillbedoing“wiltwatch,”sopleaseexcuseanydelaysifyouseeuspullingwaterhoses on the greens. Mornings, we hand water the previous day’s mapped areas. Afternoons, we hand water wilt and map areas that will need extra water. We use moisture meters for accuracy. It normally takes two employees about two hours to water and map the dry areas between 2 pm and 4 pm. Dry spots are normal. Those spots must be watered by hand in order to prevent the remaining green surface from being too wet. In July and August, we will be working on dead tree removalonholes7and10,teeandsodprojectsandaerifyingcompacted areas in the Bermuda. The Club lost a super employee to cancer on June 5, 2017.
