Manager’s Report I would like to thank all our members who took the time to complete the survey. The survey is an excellent tool for the Board and Management to fine tune our operation and gauge member satisfaction. I can assure you that our team will do everything in our power to provide the highest level of service to the members of Moraga Country Club. Chef Kevin has recently released some new menus so please RSVP in the near future to try these new culinary delights. We will also be doing a wine pairing dinner in November which will be a fabulous event. There are still a few openings to book holiday parties; please contact Ian Cook to make arrangements. We are in the process of completing the pro-forma 2013 budget for Finance Committee and Board approval. The holidays are just ahead, please enjoy the club. President’s Message First, let me thank the many of you who completed the first part of our three part Member Survey. We had a significant and, therefore, meaningful number of responses from all classes of members. You will read elsewhere in this newsletter about the results of the survey and I encourage you to do so. I will just say here that we on the Board are very pleased with those results, both with the preponderance of positive feedback but also with the clarity of commentary on where we can improve. So how will we use this information? In the near term staff will use it to focus on specific areas that need attention or where quality can be enhanced. This type of information is extremely useful to staff at all levels, allowing them to fine tune their respective areas of responsibility. As for the Board, it too will find the information very useful. Among other purposes, the Board will use the survey results to develop a Long Range Strategic Plan, a plan reflective of member wants and needs and one which can guide and provide context for future Boards and Committees. Long range planning for any organization is vital not only in setting the future direction of the organization but also in providing check points and guidance along the way. We believe MCC will greatly benefit from such a plan. Again, thank you for your responses and please anticipate the next phase of the survey which will focus on operational matters at the club. It should be out mid- October. As always … Frank Melón General Manager/COO Tom Engberg President 2 Enjoy the Club!
AROUND THE CLUBHOUSE Superbowl Sunday was the day we opened the clubhouse. It seems like yesterday but it’s been 8 months. We are officially in autumn and we have a slate of club events that we hope that you will participate in. The Fire Pit opening event will be Friday, October 5, 2012. Halloween Bingo is on Thursday, October 25, 2012. The kids should come in costume and we’ll be giving out prizes. Adults can come in costume too (if you’re adventurous). In November we are planning a signature wine dinner with Justin Baldwin of the Justin Winery. This is slated to be limited seating, six courses prepared by Chef Kevin and a fantastic wine pairing! Thanksgiving follows that next week and then we get to the Holiday Season. Christmas events for the kids and adults are being planned and an exciting New Year’s Eve event will round out the year! Look for the details in the coming weeks. New changes to the lunch menu are being rolled out so watch for those very soon. The wine list has undergone a sizable growth and our by-the-glass offerings have some changes as well. The next time you’re in please ask your server for a new wine list. See you around the clubhouse! Rick Cabasal, Clubhouse Manager 3
