• Membership renewals are not coming in like they have in the past – Canadians and Europeans
are not able to come to Florida and many American Snowbirds have elected to stay home
• We are encouraged by the number of new members that have joined although the new comers
do not make up for the attrition of renewals
• The dining room business is ok
• There are too many restrictions on catering to be able to do banquets
• The golf side of the business is very strong
• The driving range business is fantastic
• We are closing the back range for maintenance for three weeks

of golf a day
