Important Junior Schedule Information

2013-07-29T11:07:00.003-07:00

Because of the huge number of juniors participating in this years program we are going to be having a different schedule for playing on July 30th. The Older boys (playing nine holes) will be teeing off number 10 starting at 10:00 am. there will be an hour of tee times so please come whenever you would like within that hour. Recommendation would be level 5 juniors (those who have taken the program before) come around 10:00 am while all others come between 10:30 am and 11:00 am. The older girls (playing nine holes) will then tee off from 11:00 am - 11:15 am. lastly all young juniors will only be playing three holes, numbers 10 through 12 at the same time in a shotgun format at 12:15 pm. Because of this we will be serving an early lunch before the round of golf for the younger group. lunch will be served from 11:15 am - 12:10 am so please come down for an early lunch or make sure to pack a snack.

Also coming into August we are going to be going on a major fundraising drive. This fundraising will be used to further our development and programming for future years. Two of the items are a raffle and a fundraising golf tournament. The raffle is currently underway and if your family could help sell some tickets it would be greatly appreciated. The tickets are $2.00 each and the prizes are great with 100% of the revenues coming back into our junior program. If interested please pick up a book of 50 tickets from Dallas and return all ticket stubs, leftover tickets, and money back in by August 24th. As for the tournament we will be looking for junior volunteers to help in a golf tournament on August 30th. they will be the caddy for the group, raking sand traps, tending pins and helping to find golf balls. If interested please sign up in the pro shop.

Thank you and see everyone tomorrow!

2013 Junior Golf Development Center

Information

Welcome Back!

2013-04-29T09:10:00.001-07:00

The course will be opening this Friday, May 3^rd for the season, with tee-times starting at 9:00 a.m. Thanks to our amazing grounds crew and those who came out on Saturday for our course clean-up day, the course is looking in great shape. The lounge will also be open Friday-Sun from 12:00 noon-5:00 p.m, and will be open full time starting May 17^th.

The driving range is open for the season. Drop by the pro-shop this week between 9-4 to get your tokens. Those who have paid a portion of their 2013 memberships already can receive 2 Complimentary tokens to be used the same day until Friday.

We are very excited to announce that this year our driving range will be PEI’s first National Junior Golf Development Centre. This centre will better educate the pathways golf has and promote a recreational playing side and a competitive play side. The team that comes out of the competitive play side will be tracked using the national database sporting DNA. This database is used by national coaches and college recruiters looking for athletes

Both the Junior and Ladies Programs have been finalized and information is available in pro-shop.

Don't forget the Pro V Loyalty Rewarded program has been extended an extra week (until May 6th). Don't miss out on this great opportunity to get a free dozen personalized Pro V's or Pro V 1 X's with the purchase of 3 dozen!

We are very excited about the 2013 season and can’t wait to see you all out on the course!

We are close for some major news so stay tuned!

November Golf

2012-10-25T06:49:00.001-07:00

November 1st will mark the start of a new venture for the Summerside Golf Club. For the first time we will be staying open until Mother Nature makes the decision for us to close. Our membership fees however have always been set with an October 31st closing date in mind therefore we will be charging anybody who plays. To show appreciation to our membership though we will be charging the following fees;

Member green fee - $20.00 (receive a $10.00 pro shop voucher)

Non Member green fee - $20.00

Car rental - $5.00 for members with yearly passes

Car rental - $10.00 non yearly pass holders

To book carts for a round please email dallas@summersidegolf.com and if available an email will be returned immediately.

Being November the clubhouse may not be open so please be prepared to pay on the course when approached. To redeem your vouchers the pro shop will be guaranteed to be open Friday November 23rd and Saturday November 24th from 1:00pm - 4:00pm. The vouchers will not have cash value, can not be applied to accounts as payment and will expire November 30th. Also, items will not be held aside and all will be sold on a first come first serve basis.

We look forward to trying this new idea brought to us from the membership and hope to see you all out.

Extended Season

2012-09-25T05:32:00.002-07:00

With the great weather we had this season we have our fingers crossed it will continue well into the fall. I can not help but wonder if we need to adjust our plans accordingly with the changing weather patterns.

I am very excited to announce as a trial we are going to stay open past our normal closing date of Oct. 31st. We traditionally take the pins out Halloween night and close down for the season. Our membership prices have always been set with that in mind.

On member suggestion we will put the pins back in Nov. 1st and re open for a "second season" For anybody wishing to play during this season we will be charging. Green fee price is yet to be determined but it will not exceed $20.00 including taxes. Our clubhouse however will not be in normal use so please do not expect it to be open for operations. We will also have to shut down for 3 good drying days during November as to properly protect our greens for the winter.

I hope this idea, which is straight from the membership itself, works out well into a warm fall but this will still be completely based on the cooperation from mother nature.

Looking forward to giving it a try!

Golf Fitness Opportunity

2012-08-04T05:03:00.001-07:00

Attention ALL recreational and competitive golfers...you are invited and encouraged to participate in a value-packed Golf Fitness Conditioning & Training Program. These practical programs combine golf specific fitness and assessment with specific yoga techniques focused on golfers!

Together, these training methods form an unbeatable combination that will bring huge benefits to your golf game and your day-to-day life. This training will impact every area of your game. You will learn how to stay loose and less tight when playing, and get stronger, too, which makes a big difference with your ability to hit solid golf shots.

My name is David Johnstone, head trainer and owner of Dedicated Golfer. I am a 53 year old avid & passionate golfer who, over the last 8 years, has been re-learning how to play from the right side after playing left earlier in my playing days. This unique experience has given me many insights into the golf swing and about a golfers’ body, and I want to share as much as I can with you in the time we have together!

Where can you register for these value-driven programs taking place on August 9 & 10^th (Pre & Post game programs, plus a Performance Player Clinic)?

Call the Summerside pro shop at 902-436-0656, and the staff will be happy to give you more information about the programs, and register you in one or all three programs if you feel this will benefit you and your game!

For the Love of the game!

David Johnstone

Conditions

2012-07-30T12:25:00.000-07:00

As everyone is well aware this season has been one of heat and prolonged dry spells. I very much realise this weather is not good for farming among other very important aspects of daily living. Always trying to find the silver lining though I would like to touch on what it creates for a golf course, in my personal opinion of course as a lot will differ.

As everyone playing the course will find out it is getting dry, especially the fairways which do not have irrigation. Although we have a lot more green than some of the courses I have just toured around southern Ontario, our course is getting firmer. This creates a different dynamic to the golf course as golf balls will bounce and roll a little before stopping. I, for one, love golf when conditions like this arise. Most people seem to forget golf was created before irrigation systems and a lot of the game was played along the ground. I feel there is more room for creativity and different shot making compared to the game we know today. I feel most North American courses are to soft due to irrigation which limits the variety of shots. We are forced to try and hit everything high and fly the ball all the way to our destination taking out other available options. I personally feel when our options are limited on the golf course a little bit of the fun is taken away.

I do hope some rain comes for those who depend on it but in the meantime I hope to enjoy the game a little closer to the way it was originally played. I hope you can have a little fun while it lasts as well.

Random Thoughts

2012-06-24T05:46:00.001-07:00

We are well under way for the 2012 season and I feel it's time to talk about some changes we have been making to the course for your knowledge.

#1 - We have continued to grow in areas we feel are not in play or only very errant shots will find. this is helping us cut down labour hours so we can concentrate on more important areas and is helping cut down on fuel and wear and tear on the machinery. I believe it also frames everything nicer as the holes become more individual and adds personality. This is closer to the traditional way golf courses were kept and we hope through this naturalisation we will increase the wildlife habitat as a bonus.

#2 - Our different approach to fertilising is paying off. This golf course has never seen a healthier turf coverage since we fertilised wall to wall in the spring and have enough for a separate application later this year. We still bought some pesticides but more as an insurance and (knock on wood) have yet to use any this year for disease because of the healthier grass coverage. This is a major difference and a great step in becoming bio-dynamic as it is our hope we will not have to use any pesticides in the future which is to everyone's benefit.

#3 - Our junior program will be starting after July long week-end and it looks like we will have the largest registration ever. Our program is set up in a way as not to interfere with normal play on the golf course and appreciate all our existing members who encourage our younger ones by welcoming them into our club. this is the future of our operations and much needed.

#4 - Corporate passes are selling very well and if you know of anyone who may just be playing a sporadically over the season you may want to mention we sell 10 passes for $325.00 plus tax. They work out to pretty close the same amount per green fee as our larger corporate program but juts on an individual basis.

#5 - Lastly we had some great success with some new entertainment events and will continue with a changing line-up so keep posted to this website for new events.
