Good Luck Ryan!

On Wednesday February 14th we announced that Ryan LaRose will be leaving the club, effective March 1.

After ten years at Whitevale Golf Club, Ryan has accepted the position of “Director of Golf” at the Magna Golf Club. Many aspire to work at a prestige golf club, however, very few make it. His accomplishment was made possible by his growth and development at Whitevale, and we should all be proud of his success. It has been our pleasure to work alongside of Ryan and we want to wish him all the best at his new club.

We are planning a farewell event to thank Ryan for his dedication and commitment over the past ten years serving as your Head Golf Professional sometime this spring. More information will follow.

 

Bees on the Move!

We're excited to share that all twelve Whitevale bee hives have been smoothly relocated to their new home without any hiccups. We transitioned our buzzing inhabitants to a spot carefully chosen for their well-being and the convenience of our Members.

The new location, strategically positioned on the north side of the road opposite the second entrance of the Maintenance Building (closer to the clubhouse), was selected after meticulous consideration. Our priority was to find a flat, easily accessible area for our beekeeper, free from potential flooding, and offering optimal conditions for a thriving colony. We also needed a site sheltered from north winds with ample sunlight exposure.

It was equally important to strike a balance by positioning the hives far enough from the parking lot to minimize any inconvenience caused by bee waste on vehicles. Our beekeeper advises that while the relocation will significantly reduce such occurrences, it may not entirely eradicate them. Particularly in the spring, some bees may instinctively return to their former habitat until they adjust to the new location or are replaced by the emergence of new offspring.

This relocation endeavor underscores our commitment to fostering a harmonious coexistence between our Club and the natural world. By prioritizing the safety and well-being of our bee colonies, we not only support the vital role they play in our ecosystem but also mitigate any potential inconveniences for our Members.

We will continue to nurture and care for our buzzing companions, and enjoy the honey they produce for years to come!

A Jolly Affair: Whitevale's Lunch with Santa

Last Saturday, Whitevale came alive with festive cheer as families gathered for a delightful event - Lunch with Santa.

The event included a festive feast, cookie decorating, Christmas crafts and, of course, Santa! Families and friends sat together, savoring the delectable dishes while sharing laughter and stories.

The highlight of the day, of course, was the much-anticipated visit from Santa Claus himself. With a hearty "Ho, ho, ho!" and a twinkle in his eye, Santa delighted children and adults alike. Each child had the opportunity to sit on Santa's lap, share their Christmas wishes, and receive a small gift to cherish. The joy and excitement radiating from the youngsters were infectious! As families captured these precious moments with photographs, the spirit of community and togetherness flourished, making Lunch with Santa an unforgettable experience for everyone involved.

Whitevale's Lunch with Santa was more than just a festive gathering; it was a heartwarming celebration that brought the club together in the true spirit of the season. The delectable food, festive decorations, and, most importantly, the joy shared among families and friends made this event a memorable occasion.

We hope the magical atmosphere that resonated with the spirit of the season that we enjoyed on Saturday is present for all of you during this festive season!
