I hope everyone has enjoyed a fun-filled summer of golf and recreation. It has certainly been a great year for outdoor
activities.
The course remains in great condition and we still have 6 weeks of golf left. The weekends remain very busy with
many groups of players returning for their "yearly outing". Bill Bisset (our GM) does a fantastic job scheduling all
these groups and taking care of their varying needs. You can call him at 207- 925-2462 to schedule a long golf
weekend or company outing.
Recently Lake Kezar Country Club was re-rated by the New England Golf Guide. If you are unfamiliar with NEGG, it
is the Bible of golf in New England! They publish a book that rates all 670 courses that you can play in New
England. Their rating criteria are course layout, course condition, course staff, facilities (and restrictions) and golfer
feedback. I am proud to say that LKCC has received a 3 Star rating from NEGG. With this 3 Star rating, we join an
elite list of the top 15%, of the 650 public courses in New England. We will also be listed as one of the "Top 50 Golf
Values" in New England next year. I think we have a great chance to make the #1 Value Rating in their publication
for ALL 3 Star courses and above. I can't wait for the 2012 NEGG to hit the press. When an independent, unbiased
company gives us this kind of positive feedback, we must be doing a lot of things right.
We will be aerifying the greens on the course starting on October 3rd. I hope to get all the greens done the first week
and the tees the next week. The course will be closing for the season on October 30. Thank you all for a wonderful
year! Pick up a copy of the 2012 New England Golf Guide in the Spring and see how our rating stacks up. We are
no longer "The Best Kept SECRET in Western Maine". Come check us out!!!
Yours in golf,
Brad Littlefield
