Sun City Couples Committed to Supporting Golf Program Sun City Golf Ambassador Committee members are, clockwise from top left, Amos and Rita Barcus, Dave and Chris Klee, Debby and Barry Smith, Eileen and Bob de Doelder, Margy and Carl Johnson, Mona and Larry Waisanen, Mick and Luka Jadlowski, and Lois McCallum and Peter Arfman. Bet you didn’t know that for the past six years eight couples have been acting as ambassadors to folks from all over the country and other parts of the world. Why? Think back. We all moved to SCS from someplace, and making that big decision was not easy and would directly affect the rest of our lives. Various factors influenced us, but we had some common things to consider: Will we like it? Will we fit in? Will it be hard to make friends? In 2010, a golf marketing ad hoc committee came up with the idea that, as a golf community, we needed to be more competitive with the newer, developer-marketed retirement projects. Otherwise, we would face a substantial reduction in the proportion of SCS residents that support our golf programs. Reasons: Many of our existing, older residents were playing less or moving away and potential new golfing residents were relocating elsewhere without even knowing about SCS. As a matter of interest, in the early 90s we had approximately 2,500 golfing residents, whereas currently that number is closer to 1,000. While outside play has taken up some of the slack from a financial standpoint, the community still needs to increase the percentage of people that live and play golf here in order to properly support our golf facilities in the future. So, the Golf Ambassador Committee stepped in. The idea was to provide a resource to those looking for a retirement community with lots of amenities, particularly golf. A link was set up on the SCSCAI website where potential homeowners could request information and talk with a resident to get a feel for what it’s like to live here. The Ambassador Committee eventually grew to eight couples and more will be needed to handle the growing number of boomers that we expect will be coming our way. During the past six years, ambassadors have served more than 180 people. Of those, we have 50 new residents. Many of the others could still move here, as they may be waiting on the sale of their home or remaining in their current job for a while longer. These are active people who not only enhance our golf programs, but are also taking a leadership role in the future of our community. Special thanks to SCSCAI BOD President Joe O’Connell, for his help in bringing the initial idea to fruition; Jim Neighbors, SCSCAI head golf pro-fessional, who assists ambassadors with golf and lunch arrangements; Tom Burt, who has been a big help in coordinating our Internet activity; and, of course, our ambassador couples who give a minimum of a full day to be with the invitees, as well as much preplanning and follow up. For those of us involved, we receive much joy and satisfaction by having the opportunity to help others with their very important decision. A win! Win! ~ Bob and Eileen de Doelder, Chairmen, SCSCAI Golf Ambassador Committee LINK · JUNE 2017 · 33
