General Manager
PATRICK O’KEEFE
It has been a very good year at the club with member and guest service,
product levels, revenue to budget and membership all increasing. As we
end another successful year, we enter 2015 in good order. We are always
striving for improvement in operations each and every day and our business plan reflects sustaining and enhancing the member, guest and staff
experience. With that in mind, the Board of Directors approved capital
items to enhance that experience in all of our key result areas. For example, Golf, Greens and Grounds: A new truck, staff work vehicles and new
computers, along with contingency funds for a deep well and various
machines, such as a fairway mower if needed. Pool: Re-fiberglassing the
pool and upgrading the pool structure to include a snack bar with a full
bar. Fitness: A new rowing machine and various new weights and mats.
Tennis: Shop refurbishment, shade for the tennis courts and horticulture
and fencing upgrades. Administration: Will be receiving a new copier
and new computers. Clubhouse: New fan hood in the kitchen, bistro bar
pass, refurbishment of the exterior of the clubhouse and an upgrade on
the HVAC equipment. Food and Beverage: Due to an approximate 70%
revenue increase in 2014 functions from 2013, the operation will be receiving a new Alto Sham Food Warmer to increase banquet holding capacity and due to the popularity of the hospitality tent, the operation will
be receiving cathedral type side walls and we will be connecting electric
power to the tent for functions. So, you will be seeing and enjoying new
programs, offerings and amenities throughout 2015 with much more to
come in the future.
Thank you for your assistance in retaining and attaining new members
this year, which is the main reason for these future upgrades and the more
members, the better the opportunity to enhance the facility.
Happy Holidays!
NEWS FROM THE BOARD
• NEWS FROM THE BOARD
Don Kingston, President DWCC Board of Directors
November Fall Retreat – The Board Fall Retreat was held on November
7th. Twelve members of the Board were present. The DWCC GM and
DW Controller were also in attendance. The focus of the Retreat was to
address the 2015 Business/Operating Budget Plan, Dues, 2015 Capital
Plan/Reserves, Membership and the Long Range Plan.
•
The GM presented the 2015 Business/Operating Budget Plan which
will once again represent a challenge consistent with the state of the
economy. The Plan projects revenues growing by 3.6% based upon
a realistic membership number and expenses growing at 2.1% reflective of the increased cost of doing business. This challenge will
be addressed through a continued focus on increased membership,
expense management and partially offset through a modest dues
increase in the spring.
•
The Board discussed the 2015 Capital Plan realizing that we are
challenged by the maintenance of our Clubhouse (now 10 years old)
and the other aged DWCC facilities (including the golf course, tennis courts and pool) and the objective to enhance our facilities for
our membership. The Board had preliminarily set aside $150,000,
funding the A and B priorities and allowing for a contingency fund
to address other urgent needs or emergencies. At the same time, the
Board will continue to set aside funds to continue to grow our capital reserves.
NEWS FROM THE BOARD (CONTINUED)
•
Membership was discussed including the renaming of the categories
and the addition of new single memberships. Action was taken in
the Board meeting that followed.
•
The Long Range Plan status was updated, with the key focus on
Sustainability Phase (one year) and the Development Phase (two to
five years). The Growth Phase (six to ten years) will be initiated
soon. The Board challenge will be to balance the Capital Plan with
the requirements of the LRP.
The Board will approve the 2015 Business/Operating Plan, 2015 Dues
and the 2015 Capital Plan at the December Board Meeting. There was
consensus that the Retreat provided a good impetus for a bright future for
the Club.
November Meeting - The Board Meeting was held on November 7th,
following the Retreat. Twelve members of the Board were present for
the Meeting. The DWCC General Manager and DW Controller were
also in attendance.
General Manager Comments - The GM reported that we budgeted for
15 weddings in 2014 and to date have had 19 weddings at the Club.
President’s Comments – Due to a conflict of schedules, the January
2015 Board meeting will be held on the 28th, not on the normal third
Wednesday of the month (21st). The President announced that Roger
Crafe has been appointed Chairman of this year’s Nominating Committee. There will be four Directors positions elected next spring.
Operations - The Treasurer and DWCC Controller reported the results
for October were not yet available for Board review; however there were
no capital expenditures in October. Membership did grow by 2 and now
stands at 482.
Key Committee Activity – Most Committees had not met before the
Retreat, so there were few reports. The Board, by majority vote, did
request the Greens and Grounds Committee to work with the Town of
Kitty Hawk to remove the tall pampas grass on Route 158 and replace it
with lower plantings. The House Committee did announce that the Club
will be switching our telephone service to Century Link due to service
issues. Both the Social and Communications are busy with new activities
for the coming year. The Board by majority vote supported the following
brought forth by the Membership Committee: elimination of the generational test membership, a change in title on member classifications and
establishment of a single tennis and single social membership categories.
Thank You - For the past fourteen years, DWCC has been a proud host
of the Outer Banks Charity Classic. This year were pleased to learn that
the event has been recognized well beyond our local community. The
Charity Classic has just been selected to receive the prestigious USTA
North Carolina Award as Charity Tennis Event of the Year. This annual
event has grown over time through the vision and leadership of one of
our own members, Jim Groff. Jim founded the Outer Banks Charity
Classic to benefit Dare County Home, Health and Hospice to acknowledge their help in getting him through a difficult time. He designed and
grew the event over his twelve years of leadership, attracting his merry
band of volunteers along the way. And, in addition to creating a fun,
competitive event, over $200,000 was contributed to the Hospice over
that period. Jim stepped aside from active leadership two years ago but
the Charity Classic itself remains rooted in the purpose he determined in
the beginning; A strong Hospice for support in a time of need. Thank
you, Jim!
Summary Comments - If you are interested in additional Board or
Standing Committee information or have a question, the Board Members
and Chairs/Vice Chairs are all listed on the DWCC Home Page. The
next Board meeting is scheduled for December 17th and has been
changed to start at 6:00 pm.

Tennis
Fred Pfuhl
VARY YOUR GAME FOR RESULTS
How much variance do you have in your game?
There are 4 ways a player can add variance to his or her game. A player
can:
•
(1) change the power of shots
•
(2) change of the height of shots
•
(3) change the spin of shots
•
(4) change the depth of shots.
By using these variations on your shots, you can better control your
opponent and not let them achieve a rhythm. I am always telling my
students to discover as soon as possible in the match their opponents
comfort zone. Comfort zone meaning where is their strike zone preference when they hit the ball, and where is their comfort zone on the
court. By changing depths, spin, pace, and height you can change where
your opponent makes contact with the ball and change your opponent’s
position on the court. A great player figures out how to make their opponent run more in the course of the match than they run. Use the four
ways to vary your shots to accomplish this purpose.
The Tennis Schedule for December is:

LADIES’ TENNIS ASSOCIATION
Betty Dougan
Hello Everyone, The cold weather is upon us, so we probably won't be
playing outside as much as usual, but we do have the annual Toys for
Tots coming up on December 13th. Plan to come out and play and drop
off a new toy for a needy child. The Pine Island Thanksgiving Tournament is November 20-23, and I will give you those results next time.
The Ladies Tennis Association has its annual Christmas meeting (also
the quarterly meeting) on December 11th. The "Get Pinked" event was
held on Oct. 26th and we raised $1300 for the Outer Banks Hospital to
use for mammograms for local woman who cannot afford them. Beth
Markham was the high scorer. It was a great turnout and everyone had
a wonderful time and won lots of terrific raffles. Thank you all for your
support of this very worthy cause. Thanks to Catherine McGrogan for
chairing this successful event. The LTA sent 2 teams to Wilmington,
NC to compete in the 55+ and 65+ Combo State Tournament. Both
teams did well. Congrats to all who participated. Everyone have a wonderful and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. See you on the
courts.

Golf Tip:
Feet Together Drill
In order to promote good balance and rhythm in your golf swing, use
the Feet Together Drill.
Keeping your feet together, practice hitting balls teed up. Your feet
should be touching or within 2 or 3 inches of each other. Swing slowly
at first. Concentrate on making solid contact with the ball. Always
think tempo and rhythm. Once you can hit consistently good shots,
work on hitting the ball off the grass. You may be surprised how far
you can actually hit the ball like this. This is a great drill to warm up
with before your round.

FROM THE Red tee
Carnell Boyle
I can’t believe it will be Christmas in 40 short days. The golfing year
has flown by. We had a good turnout for our 4th Quarterly / General
Meeting. I want to congratulate our 2014 Most Improved players, Sue
Butler for the 9 Hole Division and Diane Pokelwaldt for the 18 Hole
Division. Well done, Ladies! I also want to thank Brian, Gina, Jeff,
Larry and the entire Pro Shop staff for all their help throughout the year.
If you have any questions concerning this drill or anything else having We are truly blessed to have such a wonderful group of people in our Pro
to do with your golf game, please don’t hesitate to contact Brian or Shop helping us. We will be starting our “Snow Bird” play, Tuesday,
Gina in the golf shop for a golf lesson. Good Golfing!
Nov. 18th. If anyone is unsure as to how to play in “Snow Birds” just
call the pro shop and they will explain how it works. It is fun, no pressure, easy going golf, so come on out. The 18 holers will tee off at 9:30
with the 9 holers right behind. Also, we will have our Jingle Bells
Luncheon and Gift Exchange on Tuesday December 9th at 11:30. A
sign up sheet has been posted in the Ladies Locker room so please sign
up for this fun event. I will see you all on December 9th and as always,
see you on the red tees.
Not only does the Feet Together Drill promote balance and rhythm but
it improves your timing, and reduces swaying because of the narrow
balance point. If you sway or swing too hard, you may fall over. This
drill will also keep bad faults from creeping into your swing.
