Dear Fellow Members,

Greetings. Although spring officially arrived on March 20, you could not tell based upon the weather. It seemed to arrive with the start of 2012. I am going to go out on a limb and predict that this will be a great season for PCC. Keep your fingers crossed!

This is the perfect time of the year to log onto the PCC website and take a few moments to read the Club policy and by-laws, where you can familiarize yourself with house, golf, racquets and pool rules. Since May is the month when Club activity increases significantly, members should be aware of all pertinent rules and regulations pertaining to everyone’s use of the facilities.

All our committees and their respective chairs have done a wonderful job preparing for this season. Committee members spent a significant amount of time during the winter months making appropriate preparations for the upcoming season. I would like to thank the committees and chairs for their hard work over the past few months in preparation for the 2012 season.

Please remember that your concerns should be brought to me or the Board and not individual employees, either on the golf course or elsewhere. Our employees may serve over 500 members but they cannot possibly respond to the many different requests of individual members while following the policies set by the Board and management. Please utilize our Board email address to voice your opinion; pccboardoftrustees@plainfieldcc.com

That is all I have for now, so let’s hope for good weather, and I look forward to seeing everyone at the 19th hole once again. Have fun and respect our facilities and your fellow members!

Thank you,Paul Sauchelli, President

Sincerely, The Board of Trustees

Dear Amy,I am very sorry I have not sent something to you before now, but I think it took several days for me to recover from all the activity of the weekend. House guests, dinner guests, etc. etc. Trip to the airport on Monday AM marked the end of the event. Then onto activities of daily living.

You have no idea how many attendees compli-mented me on what a lovely event it was. Beautiful setting, absolutely wonderful food and on and on.

It was a wonderful shower, Amy, thanks to you. You are the consummate event planner for the club. It could have not been easier to plan a shower, especially since Whitney and I had no theme or color scheme, favors or anything else. I guess we are minimalist party planners. It was just perfect and all our guests enjoyed it to the fullest.

We cannot thank you enough for all you did to make it a fabulous party.

The 122nd Annual Meeting of the Members of Plainfield Country Club was held on Sunday, April 15, 2012 at the Clubhouse with a spirited and attentive turnout. President Paul Sauchelli opened with a summary of his annual “State of the Club” message that is included in our Annual Report that was recently sent to our members.

Highlights included recognition of the herculean effort of Travis Pauley and his staff preparing the course for our first PGA TOUR event; four tee restorations (numbers 5,8,12 &15), extensive drainage and other improvements. Special thanks were also extended to Scott Paris and his team for their contributions in making the golf experiences for our women more inviting. Our course is currently ranked 76th nationally by Golf Digest and Number 3 in New Jersey, and Number 27 on Golf Week’s list of Classic Courses, # 2 in New Jersey and Golf World’s ranking of TOUR venues; 17th out of 52 courses rated on architectural value.

Our Racquets Program continues to flourish, with across the board increased usage, the most vibrant paddle program in the state, our extremely successful Kid’s Kamp and the All Sports Camp.

Our Club’s First Tee Program continues to grow. One hundred percent of our members’ contri-butions are directed exclusively to fund the “Path To College” program. All Operating Expenses are funded through corporate support and the NY Metropolitan First Tee. The Marcia Manns Scholarship and our First Tee have each awarded three scholarships. Bill Castner was thanked for his efforts in revitalizing the West Nine and work with our First Tee Program. Members were encouraged to support the May 12 outing in support of our First Tee program. Our new pool fa-cility opened on time on Memorial Day with great enthusiasm from the membership, it became an instant hit!

Our new website continues to be the go to place for current news of Club activities. The in-corporation of online statements and in 2012, online bill payment and an online tee system will further enhance our technology offerings to the membership. The phone system is slated for a full upgrade in 2012. CCTV monitors have been strategically placed around the Club, on advice of our security consultant, to protect personal property, the Club’s assets and enhance security for members’, staff and guests.

The accounting department was re-structured with the addition of Karen Larkin serving as our CFO. We also welcome our new locker room manager Nathan Conrad.

Membership, the lifeblood of our Club, is strong. We enter 2012 with a full membership but no waiting list. Members were asked to think about those family and friends whom they think may be interested in membership. Paul Sauchelli provided a recap of the Barclays. It was highlighted by the news of strong financial success for our PCC.

Treasurer Patrick O’Keefe then reviewed the Club’s financial position for the year. The Club had excellent financial results for 2011, and remains strong and debt-free. In general there is an industry-wide decline in rounds played; courses are being closed, many more are in distress. Plus there is reduced corporate and charity spending. There is environmental and other regulatory pressure. Recovery from the Global Recession has been slow. Many clubs have implemented various initiation fee deals, dues have been artificially suppressed to maintain minimum operating membership levels, and many clubs have been left with no funds for investments in the future. In contrast, we have had a focused financial strategy, with continued control of labor costs, careful purchasing, a disciplined capital program, no debt, and costs very competitive with our peers.

Our 2012 Capital Projects are fully funded from initiation fees in hand, Barclays contributions and our annual capital assessment, which all are devoted 100% to Capital Requirements.

Our 2.5% dues increase is below the New Jersey average and at or below our peer composite. Continued membership support is the key to our continued financial success, especially through outings and parties, and the constant search for qualified new members.

Paul Sauchelli concluded the formal portion of the Annual Meeting slide presentation with his summary that our Club today is in excellent financial condition, with a stable and extremely supportive membership. New member challenges will face us in 2012. We continue as the premier country club for families in our area with a superb golf course and Clubhouse, a new pool facility, and wonderful racquets facilities.

While the election results were tabulated, Paul Sauchelli reviewed the key long-term strategic initiatives for the Club:

• Build our membership base• Attract quality outings • Support guest play • Continue to revitalize and intelligently reinvest in our facilities & golf course• Insure a successful PGA Tour Event in 2015• Remain willing to adapt & change when to do so is in the best interest of the Club• Continue to strive to make PCC The Best Experience possible for all our members

First Tee of Plainfield Spring Open House March 31

On March 31, The First Tee of Plainfield held our Spring Registration Open House. The event was co-sponsored in conjunction with the New Jersey PGA section/NJ Golf Foundation, and Chick-fil-A of Woodbridge and Menlo Park. The event encouraged registration in the upcoming The First Tee weekend and After-School classes, the new Plainfield West Nine Youth Golf League and Get Ready Golf group lesson program.

Although it was a cold, dreary afternoon that felt more like winter than spring, there was a great turnout for the event. Over 50 perspective participants came and enjoyed a day of miniature golf on the West Nine putting green, 10-minute lessons by PGA Professionals and lunch. Afterwards, parents had the opportunity to sit down and discuss the programs with our staff. We also assisted them in the new online registration. The event was a huge success that left everyone smiling, especially our new registrants.

Currently, we have put 275 participants in our First Tee program, and we expect to go over 300 early this season. We also want to thank our staff and volunteers for their assistance: Jayne Summers and her family, Scott Paris and Matt McKeon, Jonathan Gold of the PGA Player Development, longtime West Nine member Bill Ritter and First Tee scholarship recipient, Makuachukwu “M.K.” Okongwu.

We also need to thank Chick-fil-A for providing the well-deserved warm lunches for our families, and the New Jersey PGA and NJ Golf Foundation for helping to promote the event as well as for distributing NJ Golf Foundation hats and foam “PGA of America” golf balls.

Thanks for braving the elements with us!

Core and Life Skills Enhance First Tee ParticipantsJust like in last month’s News and Views, we added a segment on what we are doing at The First Tee. What many people don’t realize is that The First Tee program is much more than just teaching juniors basic golf skills. We go beyond the basics on many levels. More than just hitting the golf ball, it also encompasses learning the rules, etiquette and different ideas about leaving the course in better shape than when we started.

Beyond the golf course, The First Tee really is about the “Nine Core Values.” Within the lesson plan of each week, we incorporate at least one of these core values. These “core values” are:

Respect, Courtesy, Responsibility, Honesty, Sportsmanship, Confidence, Judgment, Perseverance and Integrity.

The last piece of the puzzle is life skills. Life skills might be the most important component of First Tee learning. They include helping our juniors improve on their self-management, interpersonal skills, goal-setting and resilience skills. These life skills are essential to helping participants do more off the golf course, and it ties in our lessons to the home, school and golf course. Together, we strive to combine these three areas and make our juniors into better people for the future.

FirstTee Talk Bill Castner, West Nine Head Golf Professional & General Manager

Jonathan Gold helps at Open House, encouraging our young golfers to join the First Tee and giving some swing tips.

Though the weather was not the warmest, our new participants were really excited to go out and try and make a few putts.

Even the Chick-Fil-A cow wanted to learn how to make a few more putts.

Spotlight on Participants: Jesse Masters

The First Tee has not only made me a better golfer, but I feel it has also made me a better person. Entering my freshman year golf season at South Plainfield High School, I was not where I wanted to be with my golf game and was interested in taking lessons. Through my golf team, I was introduced to

The First Tee of Plainfield and started to become heavily involved in the program. With The First Tee, I have improved my game immensely, made new friends, and learned life lessons through my favorite sport. The First Tee coaches are very helpful and inspired me to give back to the organi-zation. I volunteer, whenever I can, and enjoy giving back to the program that has made me the golfer and person I am today. Being able to take what I have learned through The First Tee, apply it in golf and everyday life, and then inspire other kids in The First Tee with what I have experi-enced is a great joy. I am currently in my junior year of high school and in my third year of being a part of The First Tee. The Core Values I have learned through The First Tee have positively affected me in golf and my life. I feel that the lessons I have learned through The First Tee are also preparing me for my future, and I am still learning more and more. I truly love this program. If I did not become involved in it when I did, I would not be the person I am today and for that, I am thankful. I am helping out The First Tee as much as I can since it has given me so much so far, and is giving me the opportunity to be the best person I can become. I am happy with the person I am today and the life that I am living and I owe some credit to The First Tee.

Certified Birdie ProgramThe First Tee of Plainfield has crossed a major threshold in the world of First Tee. As of March 25, we certified over 10 Birdie participants. We now have participants who are eligible for such events as the Nature Valley Pro-AM at Pebble Beach Champions tour event. Also, they are eligible for many of the great leadership opportunities such as The Life Skills & Leadership Academy held at Hofstra this year and hosted by The First Tee of Metropolitan New York.

The process of becoming Birdie Certified generally takes several years. All of these participants have gone through at least four skill levels, PLAYer 3 hole, 6 hole and 9 hole and Par, before finally achieving Birdie status. Certified participants had to pass a life skills test, a rules golf skills test, and a golf skills challenge. We are very excited to have Birdie certified participants and more importantly, future Eagle students!

Finally we want to extend a huge thank you to all the Plainfield Country Club members who have donated in so many ways to our program. We appreciate all the clubs and other golf paraphernalia that everyone donates to us – and know the kids really appreciate all the top quality golf gems. Your donations and support are much appreciated.

Spring has officially arrived and with it, the beginning of the new golf season at PCC. We want to welcome everyone back. It is a new year and as most golfers have seen, there is a new look to the course. There are new sets of tees with different colors than we have been accustomed to. The stroke index on many holes has changed to better reflect the change in difficulty of many holes. There has been drainage work done on the course in the off-season, and our Greens Superintendant Travis Pauley and his crew has the course in prime condition.

The Men’s Locker Room entrance has a new look as well. You will notice the new protective fence along the walkway and once inside, photographs from The Barclays grace the walls on either side as you enter. Please say hello to our new Locker Room Manager, Nathan Conrad and welcome him to Plainfield Country Club.

The 2012 Season got off to an early start with the second annual “March Madness Tournament” held in mid-March, on St. Patrick’s Day no less. What better way to keep that “special someone” away from the Guinness than to hold the first Prize Fund event of the year on a balmy St. Paddy’s Day. The warm weather induced over 80 golfers to venture out to play, with many sticking around afterwards to enjoy their first outing of the season and the beautiful afternoon. The best-ball of foursome format was won by the team of Craig Zaikov, Rich Stewart, Greg Goodman, and Jim Mackey with a score of 75. They were winners on a three-way match of cards with the 2nd place team of Tony Rogers, Charlie Reese, Mike Janson and Andy Yurchuck. Finishing in 3rd place was the team of Pat Eichner, Tom Melvin, Bill Drake and Peter McQuaid.

The official start to the golf season was the Opening Breakfast Tournament held on Saturday, April 7. It was a brilliant, sunny day and the morning chill gradually warmed into a breezy afternoon with temperatures in the low 60’s. The blustery conditions turned the day into quite a test, with the course and greens firm and fast. After a slightly delayed start, the horn blew around 9:30 a.m. and the season was underway.

There was a new twist to the Scramble format, and players were allowed to choose to play any of three sets of tees, based on their average driving distance. Following the guidelines set forth in the Tee it Forward initiative sponsored jointly by the USGA and PGA of America, the Ross Tees and Hillside Tees were introduced to a Prize Fund event for the first time. The varied lengths provided the opportunity for all team members to have more of an impact on their team’s fortunes, but more importantly, to have more fun. This was done on a purely voluntary basis, and based on the feedback offered by some participants; it seems to have been well received.

Finishing in 1st place was the team of Jim Mackey, Tim Korth, Scott Pavlak and Robert Fleschler with a score of 65. There were three teams tied at 66. On a match of cards, 2nd place went to the team of Mark Gately, Brian Leddy, Oliver Anderson and Tom Gorke. In 3rd place was the team of Bill Fleming, Len Henderson, Mark Pesci and Les Quick. Fourth place went to Tim Campbell, Jeff Hill, Scott Van Why Sr. and Gary Mann.

Don’t forget to check the website to register for upcoming events. Please keep in mind that the First Tee of Plainfield Fundraiser which will be held on Saturday, May 12. This is a special day for these young golfers and a great afternoon to be a part of. Also, there are several outing slots that remain available. If you know of a group or organization that might be interested, please speak to Scott Paris or Amy Chick. And finally, thanks to the team that makes it look easy…our management team of Scott Paris, Greg Colombo, Peter Smithing, Travis Pauley, Amy Chick and Karen Larkin.

We wish everyone a great season.

The NJ district sponsors 72 teams divided into 12 series with PCC teams playing in series 2 and series 8. Both teams are new to their respective series each having moved up from last year.

The success of the PCC women in the interclub matches is an impressive accomplishment as the team continues to rebuild and improve.

If profanity had any influence on the flight of the ball, the game of golf would be played far better than it is.”.

“The Right Fit”We have purchased a Foresight GC2 (Game Changer) Launch Monitor that will improve the custom fitting service we provide. The GC2 dramatically reduces the time needed for accurate club fittings and provides reliable and accurate data (ball speed, launch angle, push/pull, spin rate, carry/roll distance, etc.). It allows us to fit any ability player for maximum distance, accuracy and ideal set make up. Let us know when you would like to get together to assess your equipment needs!

Rules Reminder: Rule 6 explains “Player’s Responsibilities.” Here are some of the highlights that you may want to review as we start another season:

• 6-1: The player and caddie are responsible for knowing the rules…for any breach of a rule by his caddie, the player incurs the applicable penalty.

• 6-2 (Handicap): If a player begins a match having declared a handicap higher than that to which he is entitled and affects the number of strokes given or received, he is disqualified.

• 6-3: If a player arrives at his starting point, ready to play, within five minutes after his starting time, the penalty for failure to start on time is loss of the first hole in match play or two strokes at the first hole in stroke play. Otherwise, the penalty for breach of this rule is disqualification.

• 6-5: The responsibility for playing the proper ball rests with the player. Each player should put an identification mark on his ball.

• 6-6: After completion of the round, the competitor should check his score for each hole and settle any doubtful points with the committee. He must ensure that the marker has signed the score card and sign it himself.

• 6-7 (Undule Delay; Slow Play): The player must play without undue delay and in accordance with any pace of play guidelines.

Please let us know if you have questions about this or any other USGA rule.

PLAINFIELD COUNTRY CLUB PACE OF PLAY

With 2012 expected to be another active year for our Club, we are determined to maintain a proper pace of play for our members, their guests, and our expected visitors. This will insure maximum enjoyment of our magnificent golf course.

As a matter of courtesy and etiquette, all players are expected to follow two guides: We should as foursomes play the course at around four hours, and we should never delay the following group if that can ever be avoided. As a practical matter, this usually means that if there is a hole open in front of you, and the group behind is waiting, you are significantly off pace.

Here are the rules:

• If you are in a following group and are being unfairly delayed, call the Starter fromone of the course phones, and an Assistant will drive out and advise the offending group that they are off pace. If there is an opportunity for your group to play through without further complicating the situation; that will be encouraged. Usually a firm reminder is all that is required to return the slow group to a proper pace, and if they do, then that will be the end of that.

• However, if the slow group does not improve to an appropriate pace, then they haveviolated our Policy, and they will each receive an e-mail from the Board of Trustees and or a call from a member of the Policy Committee. Their names will also be noted on a Pace of Play Monitor List.

• If anyone on the Monitor List violates our Pace of Play Policy on another day, that specific Member has a second violation, and he or she will receive a letter or email from the Policy Committee advising officially that a third violation will result in loss of privileges, loss of preferred tee times or other penalties.

• If a member with a second violation incurs a third violation, then he or she will be

required to meet with the Policy Committee before playing again. At that meeting, further penalties may be determined, which likely will include loss of early tee time privileges, loss of early Wednesday afternoon or other preferred playing times, and the possible loss of playing privileges entirely for a stated period of time.

Note especially that all members in a slow group will be treated equally, even though itis usually only one player not keeping proper pace, since pace is everyone’s responsi-bility. It may be that a particular player might receive a second or third violation, even if another player in the group actually caused the problem on that day. Members are completely responsible for their guests’ pace of play as well.

PLAINFIELD COUNTRY CLUB CARTS POLICY

The Director of Golf and the Starter have been instructed by the Board of Trustees to limit cart usage to those whose age or physical condition requires their use.

Permitting cart use in the first place is a Board decision made after advice from our Green Superintendent and Staff.

• There are No Cart Days, Front Nine Cart Days and 18-Hole Cart Days, reflecting the more difficult drainage conditions on our back nine. This is usually a subjective decision, and the Board relies heavily on the judgment of our professionals. On some days, the Green Staff may use carts when Members and Guests cannot.

• Conditions permitting, carts should stay on fairways, and not in the rough, and well away fromgreens and if possible well away from more heavily-traveled areas, and also away from any standing water, fescue, and any obviously softer areas. Cart signs must be observed, as well as all obviously restricted areas.

Abuse of the course by a member or guest should be reported immediately to any Board Mem-ber, and significant violations of our Club’s Cart Restrictions will result in immediate forfeiture of cart privileges for a period to be determined by the Policy Committee. Direct confrontations between members are to be avoided.

Cart Restrictions• Remain in the fairways as much as possible.• Avoid fescue, all suspected standing water, any drop areas, and any openings between bunkers.• Scatter away from noticeably worn areas.• Observe all roped areas and obey all cart signs.• Respect the tees and chipping areas.• Stay 15 yards at least away from Greens and obvious play areas.• For a lost ball, park in the fairway and walk in the rough.

Please Note: Registration for all Members Prize Fund events and Member Guest events (in-cluding 9 & 18-Holer Guest Days) must be submitted in writing to the Golf Shop in person, by mail, fax or on-line. Please visit www.plainfieldcc.com or the Golf Shop for tournament entry forms and details.

Please let us know if you have a need for corporate gifts or favors (i.e. logoed golf balls, shirts, bags, etc.). Many suppliers offer bulk discounts that we will pass on to you.

Megan Rittle, a college standout on the Rutgers tennis team, joins us for her third season, and brings a woman’s touch to our ladies clinics, private instruction, and junior program. David Laudati is the longest tenured on staff, and was a former touring pro years ago. We would love to have you stop by and say hello.
