For Immediate Release
July 31, 2007

We have been fortunate to receive a lot of feedback about CountryClubCritics.com over the past couple months. We've been able to take that feedback and continue to build our site to meet the needs of you the golfer. We wanted to take a moment to share with you recent emails from two members of the local golf community.

 "I just wanted to take a second to thank you for coming out to Veteran's Golf Course for the rating. We were please that our improvements have begun to be noticed by our golfers. I also appreciate your feedback about the rangers. It is something that I will correct immediately. The bunkers at Veteran's do leave much to be desired. You will be happy to know that we recently secured funding for a total bunker restoration project to begin in September of 2008. We feel that this will be the last major piece of the puzzle. We do have an active winter planned of brush cleanup and tree work which should enhance playing conditions more. I will be sure to have our Superintendent, Andy Gay, take a look at the nice review. This is his first full year and we are very pleased with his efforts. On a side note, I would ask a small favor of your site.  I would invite you to come back and review Franconia golf course again. We have taken over management of that facility and have a new superintendent, a new food and beverage operation, and obviously a new golf operation staff that works out of a totally renovated Golf Shop. Once again, thanks for the review and your site is a positive for the local golf community.

Kevin Kennedy
General Manager of Golf Operations & Head Golf Professional
Veteran's Memorial & Franconia Golf Course"

"Ross, I love the website and I think its going to be a big hit and help a lot of area courses get better at what they are doing. My name is John and I am one of the board of directors and you are welcome anytime as a guest of the club. Your reviews are right on the money and I know I am taking a chance on having you come out, but I am very interested as to how you will review our course.

Look forward to hearing from you!!"
