FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER by Bob Russell
As winter approaches and 2018
draws to a close, I would like to thank
our many club members for helping
to make this another great year at
the club. I also want to wish everyone
a happy Thanksgiving and a very merry Christmas.
We are finishing up a couple projects around the
course, before the weather turns, but in general all
major work is complete.
You will see the addition of three new redwood trees
on #9 fairway near the large oak. These plantings are
in preparation for the future when it becomes neces-
sary to remove the venerable old oak tree. That may
be a number of years away, but at least the new
trees will be partially mature when that occurs.
The blue tee boxes on holes #15 & #16 are being lev-
eled, re-worked and sodded as we speak. This is a
good time of the year to complete this type of pro-
ject, to allow the new sod to grow undisturbed during
the winter months. These tees will reopen in the
spring.
The roof on the #3/#9 restrooms is being replaced
soon, before we get significant rain or snow. The driv-
ing range is now closed and we will be removing the
ball washers and water stations very soon.
As in past years, I want to remind our members and
guests that the fall and winter conditions on our golf
course are a lot different than in the warmer months.
There will be frost delays, many mornings, and we do
this for a very good reason: walking and driving on
frozen grass literally kills the grass and leaves ugly
scars for months. And: please avoid any wet or soggy
areas with your golf carts and be very careful where
you drive, this time of the year, to show respect for
your golf course.
Paul and his crew will try to keep the course open as
much as possible during the winter months, and re-
open portions of it as soon as conditions allow follow-
ing storms, but remember: even our best efforts are
controlled by Mother Nature. Thanks again to all our
members and staff for another great year and we
look forward to many more at our club!

NOTES FROM THE GOLF PRO
by Bob Reichle
It’s starting to feel like winter is just around the corner.
Come winterize the cabin, and enjoy a couple of
days of cool November mornings, and the spectac-
ular colors of fall on our perfectly groomed course.
Don’t be surprised after booking morning tee times
that, upon arrival, we may be subject to a frost de-
lay. Coffee is always available but standing around
in the cold may not be your cup of tea. You can
always call ahead to check on course conditions
and possible delays.
The back nine will be closed over the first three days
of November, so we can complete final tree remov-
al and cleanup.
We’ll continue to be open for play throughout the
winter months as conditions allow, however, as we
get closer to mid-December and the overnight and
daytime temperatures start to drop we’ll most likely
close holes 14-18 to protect the tees and greens that
get little or no sun this time of year.
If you call the golf shop during a period of golf
course closure we will leave a no-answer greeting
addressing the closure, with a tentative opening
date. If you require further information you can
always call the main club house at 795-1000.

Protocol for Reciprocal Play
When considering playing golf at other northern Cali-
fornia private facilities, here are some suggestions:
1.) Call the facility first and let them know you are a
member of a private club and are interested in recip-
rocating with their facility.
2.) Ask questions such as, will you reciprocate with
our facility, what days and times are available, may
we bring guests, what are the dress code require-
ments and what can we expect in regards to costs.
Generally at this point they will ask for a call from your
Head Golf Professional to set up a tee time. The staff
at our golf shop will be more than happy to take over
and make the call.
By doing the ground work first we can eliminate the
frustration of phone tag.
During the winter months when our facility is closed
and you need a call from us to set up a reciprocal
round, just leave a message on our phone. We check
for messages every other day and will get back to
you as soon as possible.
There are many great private clubs out there, so take
advantage of the benefits of being a member at
Sequoia Woods.

THE MEN’S CLUB By Bernie Tillotson, President 2019
It’s hard to believe that another year is almost over,
our 2018 Men’s Club events are behind us and we
are planning for next year.
I would like to start off by thanking Tom Gosswiller
and the entire Men’s Club Board for all of their hard
work to make 2018 a terrific year. It has truly been a
pleasure working with all of you. I would also like to
extend a special thanks to our retiring Board mem-
bers Vic Manuelli and Andy Thompson for the great
job they have done in serving on our Board these
past 3 years. Your contributions and dedication to
our club have been outstanding.
I want to welcome our two new Board Members;
Alan Court and Mario Perez. With their direction and
leadership, we look forward to another outstanding
year with our Men’s Club.
Your new Full Board and their responsibilities are as
follows:
Bernie Tillotson President
Alan Court Vice President
Erik Nissen Secretary
Brian Raley Treasurer
Jack Larmour Tournaments
Tom Gosswiller Membership
Mario Perez Rules & Handicap
Sid Gilbrech Ringer Board/Public
Relations
George Cook Greens
Hank Rullhausen SWCC Liaison
Jim Walton Member Liaison
I’m personally very excited about - and looking for-
ward to working with - our new Board this next year.
The Board held it’s first meeting October 15th and is
already working on the schedule of events for the
upcoming year. Your input from our annual “Turkey
Shoot Survey”, along with our analysis of the past
years’ events, are being incorporated into our plan-
ning for 2019. It is promising to be a great year.
The 2019 Calendar will be available soon, once ap-
proved by SWCC. We will continue to have our reg-
ular play days on Monday and Thursday, even
though our season and tournaments are officially
(cont’d.)
over. The new season will start on April 1, 2019, so
please get your applications and dues paid as early
as you can. You can pick up an application at the
Pro Shop or directly from Tom Gosswiller, our Mem-
bership Chair.
FInally, our annual Sequoia Woods Men’s and La-
dies’ Clubs’ Holiday Party, hosted this year by the
Sequoians, will be held Saturday December 8th. This
is always a great event and a chance to enjoy good
friends, good food and a fun time. It’s been a very
popular event, and will fill up fast, so plan to make
your reservations early. Look for your invitation, com-
ing from the Sequoians (women’s 9-hole club), in
early November. As in the past, our Men’s Club will
provide complimentary wine with dinner.
I would like to wish each of you a very joyous and
meaningful holiday season!

WOMEN’S 18-HOLE CLUB by Sharon Croswell, Captain
It is hard to believe that our competitive season is
over! In many respects it has been a good year but
in others it has been a tough year (due to illness
and a death). However, I have enjoyed being
Captain for such an amazing group of women.
THANK YOU to my board: Lynn Manfree, Jane
Lucas, Kayleen Clemens, Jackie Gutierrez, Sharon
Tussy, and Elise Hanrahan, without whose help I
could not have done this job. I also want to thank
all of the special committee chairs that made the
season run so smoothly.
On October 3rd the ladies hosted the Sadie Haw-
kins event. We had a tremendous turnout. All 26
teams started the day even though the weather
promised rain. Yes, it poured on us for about 15
minutes and then cleared up until we finished the
tournament. After we finished, the sky opened up
and poured continuously…but, we made it. When
we came off the course we had a delicious hot
lunch, with chili and corn bread, compliments of
Maureen Ryniec’s menu-planning. Thank you, Mo
Ryniec and Barbara Mehan, for doing such an
awesome job putting the tournament together!
The Sadie Hawkins game was one best ball be-
tween the pair. There were two flights, six winners in
each flight. First flight winners: 1st place Sharon
Croswell and Kevin Andel, 2nd place Betty
Hildebrand and Roger Hawkins, 3rd place Cathie
Andel and Bron Croswell, 4th place Lisa Self and
Mike Cashara, 5th place Sharon Tussy and Scott
Self, 6th place Linda Stebbins and Ed Carr. Second
flight winners: first place Kayleen Clemens and
Bernie Tillotson, 2nd place Harriet Johns and Bob
Kruger, 3rd place Irene Machado and Joe
Caccamo, 4th place Tess Leary and Karl Malmin,
5th place Gloria Jacques and Vic Manuelli, 6th
place Patty Tillotson and Dennis Clemens. In spite
of the rain, a good time was had by all.
Our last event of the year was the Awards lunch-
eon on October 7th. Awards were given out for the
Club Champion, Runner Up, and Low Net, Birdie/
Ringer, WGANC pins to the three ladies Maureen
(cont’d.)
Larmour, Cindy Gibbs, and Lynn Manfree, with the
three lowest net scores in the six WGANC tourna-
ments, and our Most Improved Golfer, Sherry West-
ernoff.
Again, I want to thank the members for all their help
and support. It has been such an honor to serve as
your Captain this year and I look forward to working
with everyone next year.

To SWCC Members Regarding
The Mountain Retreat: The current agreement that is in place is
subject to modifications as needed.
Our club members have the ability to use the
indoor swimming pool, the spa, sauna and the
new workout room (all located on the lower lev-
el) at Mountain Retreat as part of your Sequoia
Woods membership.
There is no charge to use their facility but the
use is restricted to Sequoia Woods Country Club
members in good standing. You may bring two
guests with you to the facility but you must ac-
company them—guest card privileges will not
otherwise be honored.
Likewise, you may bring your children with
you to the facility but you must accompany
them, as well. (To everyone’s understanding,
this won’t be a place to drop-off your kids to
play or to “hang-out”.) Your children are regard-
ed to be guests.
Most importantly, you’ll need to present your
permanent plastic Sequoia Woods card with
your name and number for identification. This
card is the only way you can use the facility.
Their staff will buzz the locked access door open
for our guests. (If you’ve lost your SWCC member
card please let us know as soon as possible and
we’ll send for replacements, which you’ll be
able to pick up here at the clubhouse.)
The hours of operation at Mountain Retreat
club house and recreation facilities are 8:00am
until 10:00pm summer; 8:00am until 8:00pm in off-
season (fall, winter & spring).
Our members are expected to follow all of
the rules at Mountain Retreat as well as the ac-
cepted conduct you would exhibit as a mem-
ber of Sequoia Woods Country Club.
Please contact me if you have any questions
or need further information about this new pro-
gram. I’m sure everyone will enjoy these year-
round benefits.
