FAQs - 8/19/07

1. On 8/1/07, the WWGC BOD elected to open up the member roster by 50.  At that time there were over 100 individuals who had placed their name on a "waiting list".  Since then approximately 30 to 40 individuals have joined the WWGC member roster for a payment of $2,000.00.  This will give those individuals full playing privileges through the end of 2008.

2. On a good day, the number of rounds is between 125 to 140.  About 25% of these are member while 75% are green fee.

3.  There is continuing discussion surrounding a driving range and practice facility.  In addition, the plans are moving forward for a multi use clubhouse that will house the new fleet of electric carts as well as contain the proshop, grill room and a conference room.

FAQs - 06/10/07

1. Due to under whelming demand, the BOD reduced the fee structure across the board to increase the member base to 100 and increase the daily play count by lowering the green fee from $60.00 to $35.00.  Since the second wave of "members" were recruited with a $1,000.00 per year figure, individuals who had paid the $1,800.00 between March 1st and June 1st (the lucky 55) were given the 2008 golf season free.

2. The BOD established Mondays as "Senior Day", and "Buy 3 Get 1 Free" on Tuesdays.  Also set up a weekend special ($40.00 for greenfee and cart) after 2:00PM.

FAQs - 3/10/07

1.  What does $1,800.00 get me? - The 2007 golf season will begin on June 1st.  The $1,800.00 will allow the "member" to play golf at a first class golf course with a management staff that will pay particular attention to detail.  For the 2007 golf season, there are 100 slots available at the $1,800.00 play fee.  The same $1,800.00 play fee will be available for the 2008 golf season.  The fee will be higher for the 2009 golf season.  I do not know what that fee will be but I would like to believe that with all things considered that 2009 fee will be no more than $2,500.00

2. When does the golf season start? - For 2007, the season will start on June 1st.  It should be noted that all turf care maintenance including putting green aerification  will be done before June 1st.  There will be no aerification in the fall.  Therefore, the season will flow continuously until the snow flies.  For 2008 and beyond, the golf season will follow traditional Erie region times.
