2011 Reflections: A thank-you note goes a long way
Every once in a while we receive notes and letters that make us feel warm and fuzzy inside. At the end of a very busy and exciting 2011, we've been reflecting on where we've been and where we're going and it's notes like below that make us so appreciate the members, guests, neighbors and employees we have.
This particular guest and his wife played with us yesterday, then shared with us the story of their day.
To this couple, we thank you for making our jobs well-worth it! So glad you enjoyed your time on the green with us.
Dear La Costa,
Thank you very much for making the arrangements for my wife and I to play golf yesterday. We enjoyed ourselves very much. Could have done with a warmer day however but we were dressed for it. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. As it turns out we had the golf course to ourselves but were attended to by the marshall and the snack cart women (girls). Sure glad they had hot coffee and Baileys.
On another note, my wife decided to surprise me with new clubs (woods) that she snuck into my golf bag. An early Christmas present she decided to give me before our outing at La Costa. On the first hole I told the starter about the new clubs and he told me (for fun) I can hit a couple of extras since I haven't tried them yet. Well, my first ball went straight down the middle to the applause of the starter and my wife. I wish the rest of my game was as good as my game off the tee box but that's golf....Loved it Thank you again.
Merry Christmas
P.S. I used to come out and watch the Tournament of Champions when it
was played here years ago and what a treat to play some of the holes I
walked while watching the pros.
