December 2014
Dear Members,
It’s almost time to say goodbye to 2014.
A year in which so much happened but at the same time a year that seems to have
passed by with lightning speed.
We have lost loved ones, the world is in
turmoil and the weather is playing funny games with us. All we can do is keep
Royal Mougins Golf Club a safe haven for its members, guests and associates.
With 2015 right around the corner, that
means new goals, new challenges, new opportunities and new milestones that await
us. Our aim for 2015, as it has been all
throughout 2014, is to work hard on improving the golf course, the overall
service level in the Clubhouse and ProShop, coming up with new formulas of
entertainment, etc.
“Every time you tear a leaf off a
calendar,
you present a new place for new
ideas and progress.” Charles Kettering
As you are aware the golf course was in
pretty good shape up till the fall when we were hit by a disease called dollar
spot. At the same time we changed over to a new team on the course. The guys
from Celtic Golf have done a great job in trying to recover the course. Given
that November was the wettest month ever in this region. We are all confident
that we can offer you an even better golf course next season than in 2014.
If you're competitor focused, you have to
wait until there is a competitor doing something. Being member & guest
focused allows you to be more pioneering
Furthermore, since we are all worrying and
concerned about the average age of the membership going up and up and the lack
of new members joining we are working closely with a members committee to
present you within the near future a Strategic Plan RMGC 2015 – 2020. Under the
enthusiastic guidance of Pieter Schoen and with the aid of a young academic,
Martijn Weener, we are developing a sound plan to secure RMGC’s future. Soon
you will receive a questionnaire and we would be grateful if you could take a
little bit of time to fill this out. Also Martijn might contact you to acquire
further details and explanations. We are grateful for your assistance in this
since Rattan Chadha, Pieter Schoen and the entire committee are convinced that
this Plan will be of greatest importance for our Club.
I take this opportunity to invite you to
our annual Happy New Year’s Cocktail with the RMGC staff at the Clubhouse on
January 2nd from 5 – 7 pm.
Let’s toast together to a great 2015 with and in good health and lots of
fun on and around Royal Mougins Golf Club. RSVP!
However I would equally be honoured to
welcome you to our traditional New Year Eve Party on the 31st of
December.
The name is ‘Mougins’………..’Royal
Mougins’! Number 424, licence to please!
“Never say 'no' to adventures.”
Wishing you on behalf of the entire RMGC
team great holidays, I remain,
At your service,
Jurgen Wondergem
PS. In 2015, more than before, we will
look at our members as invited guests to a party and we are obviously the
hosts. It’s our job to make every important aspect of the member/guest
experience a little bit better. Every time again!
