March 2023

Greetings! February brought even more snow, and we’ve had many days of closure due to this. As we all know, moisture is precious if we can keep this wind down! The PGA show in Orlando last month was very beneficial and busy! It was good to see attendance well up from last year. That being said, you will see some new looks this year in apparel, equipment, and game technology. I am excited for what we have coming in this year, and I think you will be, too. We are in the process of lining up our season of fitting days as we speak. All of these, with various vendors, will range from June – August. Correspondence will go for each day by way of email blasts as they near.

February 2023

As winter continues, so do the cold temperatures and snow. That being said there have not been too many chances for golf. But as long as we are getting the moisture, we definitely welcome that this time of year. We look forward to the golf courses thawing out and prospering from winter moisture, and transitioning back into optimal playing shape this spring. The target date for the front nine tee box use, as well as the Alto practice range, is May 1^st. Again, we appreciate your continued patience with this project.

January 2023

Well, another year passes just like that! We are looking forward to 2023 for a number of reasons. Our front nine tee boxes will be in play for a target of May 1^st. This will obviously make daily and tournament play a lot more manageable and fair. In addition, our practice range will be open as well, with a similar target date as mentioned above. It will be nice to get back to where we were before our projects began. On that note, we’d like to thank all of you for your patience with everything we went through. We know it was tricky being under construction; but guess what, we got through it!

December 2022

Well, as we know there’s a month left in this year, just like that! As I write this (11/19), the course has been blessed this morning with about four inches of snow! Moisture is always good. We have sure had days of severe cold temperatures as Winter has arrived. As another season comes to close, we look forward to the next in 2023! We are working on the event calendar as we speak, which should be completed, approved, and published shortly after the first of the year. We are excited to operate in course normalcy playing from our new front nine tee boxes, as well as warming up on our new practice range, which should be ready to go in the Spring! It will sure be nice to play tournaments in these conditions.

November 2022

Fall is still here, but suddenly it has felt like Winter already on some days! In the late days of October we recorded two inches of snow. The temperatures have certainly been chilly in the mornings. Many of our members have made their way to their Winter homes by now. However, we seem to have more who have made the transition to be full-time at Alto; this is great, and welcome to Winter in Alto! As we approach Winter, and more importantly Daylight Savings Time, please note the current tee time schedules and Golf hours of operation.
