Weather straight from a Chamber of Commerce Postcard is scheduled for this week! What a great time for the desert golfers of southern California. The PGA Tour West Coast Swing is here, too. Practice rounds for the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic started yesterday. This is the first time ever that three of the sites for the Hope rotation are in the city of La Quinta!
Increased traffic in La Quinta due to the Hope event will result in increased traffic here at Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta. We have some great offers this week.
We continue to put down applications of Urea, a treatment that will help with the growth of the fairways. We should have the whole course completed with the first round of treatments early this week. We will continue to rotate the "golf car path only" approach on one hole per side, while we continue to give the fairways extra care. The added applications and the warm weather this week should bring some improved growth in the fairways. The greens continue to be in the finest shape to date.
I would like to remind you as I did last week that we have also instituted a two golf car per foursome limit. Occasionally you will see three golf cars per group. We have specific situations for that happening. This is a policy that is very common at facilities that are as busy as we are. The 3-4 golf cars per group also have affect the growth of the fairways (excess traffic), so this policy will help with the fairway improvement.
I would like to make a suggestion during Bob Hope Week. Jefferson will be heavily used because both PGA West Palmer Private and Silverrock will be host sites for this year’s event. My suggestion to avoid the excess traffic would be to use Monroe to access our golf course. Bob Hope practice rounds started on January 13th, with the tournament actually starting on January 16th, 2008.
We have worked out special pricing at the Embassy Suites Hotel in La Quinta for any Trilogy Community Members. If you have family members or close friends in town and don’t have room at your home I would suggest putting them up at the Embassy Suites, where they will be treated like royalty.
Well, the 2008 PGA Tour is in full swing, which also means the Anthony Kim watch will be in full swing. Tentatively, Anthony will be playing in the Hope, as well as San Diego, LA, Tucson and Phoenix. Anthony has had a great off-season of conditioning. This year looks to be even better than last year with a possible victory in sight.
We are continuing our email updates. You will start to see a couple of emails a week promoting various activities at the golf course and a couple of Azul Restaurant email blasts that are specific to the restaurant. Almost all of the 2008 pass holders have given us their email addresses. If you aren’t receiving our email updates, please contact the golf shop. Some of the email addresses were hard to read, so we may have missed yours.
On the sports scene, you can put my Cowboys to bed - same result for the 12th consecutive year, ending the season with a loss. What was looking like a promising season ended in defeat. Many opportunities late in the game, but the Giants' defense rose up to the occasion. Lakers are rolling and the Dodgers bring hope to a new season. I had a couple of people ask me how I felt after yesterday, to which I replied that I feel the same as I have felt the past twelve years, and I feel the same way that every other fan will feel, except the Super Bowl winner. We sometimes get too involved in the game. Cowboy great Duane Thomas, when asked about the importance of the Super Bowl, said, “If it is so important, why are they playing it again next year?” A man after my own heart. Some will say I am just a bitter Cowboy fan; I just say I am a realist.
Until next week keep rolling that rock!
