Dear Members, Happy New Year! This winter at Greystone is full of exciting events and activities. Please take the opportunity to enjoy some time at the Club. Our “New Year Special” is our version of Happy Hour from 5-6:30 Wednesday through Sunday beginning Wednesday, January 2nd in Cellar 91. We will offer $2 off all cocktails, beer and wine, and all appetizers will be half price. Another great new idea we will be unveiling for 2019 are “Pop Up” Dinner Parties. These will be secretly planned with a theme and you will be notified four days prior of the day, time, location and theme. These will be held all over the property, including inside the tennis shop, around the pool, at the Performance Center, on the golf courses and several other locations. Each will be limited to 50 people and reservations will be required. Keep a look out for our first one in January. Please download our app in the app store by searching Greystone Golf and CC. This will allow you to receive push notifications for events, search the directory, view the calendar and make reservations without having to login each time. In the first quarter of 2019 we will be working on a refurbishment plan for the main floor of the Founders Clubhouse. This includes wood flooring in the main foyer event space and trophy room, new furniture, area rugs, new carpet and new chairs in the main dining room. Also, we will be installing gates to enclose the loading dock on the left side of the Founders Clubhouse and replacing the awning for the porte-cochère. Regions Tradition is just over four months away and we plan to work on several improvements to the member experience including expanding the members only area on #9, adding exciting parties, revamping the menus and working with Children’s of Alabama on a Mother’s Day gift to mothers of patients using member ticket proceeds.

Greystone University has three classes enrolled at this time. Two of them have eight weeks remaining and will graduate on Tuesday, March 5. All members are invited to help celebrate the graduates. More details will follow on location and time. The third class has about eighteen weeks left so they are just getting started. Here is a list of staff graduating in March, so you can encourage them to finish strong when you see them.
