the November to March off season. This price includes green fee,
driving range usage and golf cart. We take tee times for residents three
days in advance at 787-1800 ext 2. Men, please remember our simple
dress code of no denim, collared golf shirts and caps worn forward at all
times. For our female golfers, we request no denim, spaghetti-strapped

All Somersett residents are encouraged to use the driving range at the

Winter/Snow Season
We kindly ask that you refrain from winter activities on both of our golf
courses during the winter season. We do not allow tubing, tobogganing,
sledding, saucering, skiing, snowboarding or any other winter activity on
either course during winter months. Damage caused by these activities
becomes apparent in the spring and playing conditions are greatly
sacrificed. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Golf Tip — Putting
As we move into winter and temperatures prevent many of us from heading out to the golf course, take the opportunity to work on simple putting
fundamentals in the comfort of your own home.
I recommend a few basic fundamentals – ball placed slightly left of center (for right handers), eyes over ball and equal back, equal through
with the putter head. Remember that the motion of the putter includes shoulders, arms, hands, putter grip and putter head all working at the same
tempo. Putting is not just a hand activity if you are striving for consistency. PGA and LPGA tour players have tempos of 62–72 beats per minute
regardless of the length of putt they face.
Short putt = short back and slower through – at X tempo | Long putt = longer back and faster through – ALSO at X tempo
You can purchase an inexpensive app for your smartphone to monitor your tempo. I use Metron.
Need help with putting this winter? Have your putting stroke evaluated on our TOMI Putting Stroke Analyzer at the country club golf shop
with Stuart Smith, our PGA director of golf, for $40. Stuart can be reached at 787-1800 ext 705 or email him at ssmith@somersett.com to set an
appointment.

L.I.F.T.
We are introducing a new drop-in class to the fitness schedule starting
November 7. L.I.F.T., or Less Intense Functional Training, will focus on
body conditioning to increase flexibility and control weight through low
impact maneuvers and exercise. The class, scheduled from 12–1 pm, will
stand in lieu of our Water Fitness class during the winter.

Personal Training
Personal training is a great way to get personalized routines designed to
increase your performance and fitness results. And if you’re new to the
gym or coming back after some time off, our personal trainers can help
you get back into shape safely with faster results. Please check out the
sports tab of our website for personal training specials and tips.
The Club at Town Center has a great fitness tool to track personal
achievements. Fitassess.com is a web-based fitness assessment program
that gives personal trainers the tools to conduct a complete physical
assessment for their clients. Tests include BMI, blood pressure, body
fat analysis, body measurements, cardiovascular fitness, strength,
flexibility and muscular endurance. The program compiles these
results for a ranking that is compared to national averages, and it also
provides a number for a body’s fitness age. This information is useful
for determining a starting point and making it easy to set realistic
goals. It’s also a means of tracking your overall improvement, which
boosts motivation and keeps you focused on your training. For more
information or to set up your physical assessment session, please speak
to any of our personal trainers.

deck. Please check in at the concierge desk to use the spa.
WINTER SPA RULES
1. The winter spa adjacent to the play pool is for adults (18+) only.

to the health of elderly persons and persons with heart conditions,
diabetes or high or low blood pressure.
3. People with skin, ear, genital or other body infections, open sores
or wounds should not use the hot tub because of the possibility of
spreading infection.

infection and illness.

spa.

Aflake of snow, trees standing bare, ice crackling beneath
our feet … the signs are clear, winter is upon us!
Our Halloween pumpkins are being replaced with
brightly colored lights, and plans are underway for our holiday
feasts. As we move into the final season of 2013, we have some
great events planned for our Sierra Canyon residents, such as
our Tom Turkey Pot Luck, “No Frills” Line Dancing Party, a
Holiday Craft Fair, the Eldorado “Ice Fantasy” dinner show, our
Holiday Magic Winter Ball and last, but certainly not least, our
New Year’s Eve celebration!
The New Year will bring an array of fun events ranging from
educational seminars to chili cook-offs, barbeques, sock hops
and off-site tours, all available to you right here at the Aspen
Lodge.
I hope you enjoy all our area has to offer. From beautiful
Lake Tahoe and some of the best skiing in the country to events
right here in Sierra Canyon, there is something for every taste.
Love the things you do and do the things you love!
Ronda Flanagan
Activities Coordinator, Sierra Canyon Association
