1 Princess Anne Living | January/February 2017

Message from the President

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season with their family and friends. As PACC embarks on its next
100 years, your Board will set a strategic course for our future. We are excited to welcome our new Executive
Chef, Geoff Benson, in January and are looking forward to Matt Liebler’s leadership as our new Head Golf
Professional. Our goal is simple. We want to enhance your club experience each time you visit PACC.

I am excited to announce our four incoming Directors who recently began their three-year terms. Dave Burton
will head our Golf Committee, Trey Braithwaite will be involved with Membership, Doug Russell will join the
Entertainment Committee and Sam Steingold will continue his service on the Finance committee.

In closing, I would like to take the opportunity to thank Bill Shonk and our PACC Team for their tireless
efforts and enthusiasm in putting on such wonderful events for our membership, the Oyster Roast, Annual Meeting & Dinner
and Traditional Christmas to name a few. I look forward to seeing all of you around the Club in the coming year - the best is yet
to come!

Happy New Year!

Up-to-Date from the General Manager

Happy New Year! This past Centennial year, we focused much of our attention on celebrating The Princess
Anne’s rich history and first 100 years. As the calendar turns, we look forward to the next century. To that
end, your Board of Directors is scheduled to convene a half day strategic planning meeting in mid-January
to review our current Strategic Plan, which was scribed in 2004 and revisited in 2009. The Board will
delve deeper into the comprehensive Member survey conducted this past year and work with the Princess
Anne Family to formulate a vision for the future. Our Operations Team is setting fresh SMART goals
for this coming year and looks forward to aligning our operations with strategic initiatives. Technology
enhancements are interlinked to so many of these fresh goals, like the new PACC App that will be released
in January. Please look inside this issue for the “New Century, New App!” information page and join us for
“Appy Hour” on January 19th.
Many Members have asked me about the service charge that is applied to food and beverage charges and how our service
Team members are compensated. Unlike a traditional restaurant where the waiter/waitress is paid a lower hourly wage and
receives the gratuity/tip left, our service Team is paid a higher hourly wage and the 20% service charge applied to each bill
goes to the Club to pay the higher base wage. There is an “Outstanding Service Reward” line on each check that reads:
“If your server went above and beyond your expectations and you would like to leave him/her an extra gratuity, please
indicate amount here $______.” Any amount written onto this line is paid directly to the server on his or her bi-weekly
paycheck. This additional reward/gratuity should never be solicited in any way by our Team and Club Members should
never feel obligated; however, many often wish to share an additional reward. While our service charge and pay setup is
typical of most private Clubs, we continue to evaluate ways to elevate our levels of service. As always, as you have thoughts
and questions about your Club, please do not hesitate to contact me on my direct line (757) 440-3100 or via e-mail at
[email protected].

See you at the Princess Anne!

or equipment, there is no penalty and the ball is to be replaced and
played from its original location.

3. Does the Local Rule apply to a ball moved by the wind?
No. If the ball was moved as a result of wind, water or some other
natural cause (including gravity), the ball must be played as it lies
from its new location without penalty.

4. What types of actions are considered accidental?
Accidental movement can involve a variety of actions in which
the player unintentionally moves his ball or ball-marker. Examples
include: dropping the ball-marker on the ball, accidentally making
contact with the ball when taking a practice swing near the ball,
accidentally making contact when addressing the ball, etc.

5. What are some examples of actions that are not considered
accidental?
The Local Rule does not apply to any intentional lifting or moving
of the ball. Examples include striking or moving the ball in anger,
lifting the ball without marking it, etc.

6. Is the Local Rule only recommended for tournaments and elite
level play?
No. While it is anticipated that the Local Rule will be widely
adopted throughout the professional and elite-level amateur
tournaments (including all USGA and R&A championships,
qualifiers and international matches), its use is recommended for
all levels of play. The adoption of the Local Rule is ultimately up to
each individual committee’s discretion.

Summary of key points:
• The Local Rule only applies to a ball on the putting green
• If the ball is moved accidentally, there is no penalty and the ball

must be replaced
• If the ball is moved intentionally, there is a one stroke penalty and

the ball must be replaced
• If the ball is moved by wind, water, gravity etc. there is no penalty

and the ball is played from its new position

Hope that helps, Oops !

Until next time, keep the questions coming!

FROM THE GREENS

CourseGolf Course & Grounds Update

By Tim Doran | Golf Course Superintendent As always, the most up to date information
concerning the golf course or club grounds can
Changing with the Seasons be found on the blog at:
http://princessannecountryclub.blogspot.com
As we find ourselves in the winter season, the golf course
maintenance team has a chance to evaluate our maintenance
programs. While many activities remain constant, we shift
our focus to different areas as the seasons change.The peak of
summer will bring about daily operations to prepare the golf
course for play, while the cold of winter brings an opportunity to
enhance the property and prepare for the upcoming year.

So what are some areas we focus on from season to season? What do
those maintenance folks do when it snows? Here is a brief glimpse
into the maintenance goals at the Princess Anne:

Summer - We’ll start here as it’s the most active time of year
for the golf course. As summer begins, the maintenance team has
already completed various practices on greens, including spring
aerification and numerous applications of topdressing sand.The
bermudagrass has started to grow, so we make efforts to improve
fairway and approach playability with sand topdressing, appropriate
fertilizer, and a height of cut that promotes a fair and enjoyable lie
for your golf ball. Moisture management is key to providing healthy
and enjoyable putting surfaces. We balance playability with plant
health to provide the best possible experience for all who play the Princess Anne.

Autumn – This time of year is always welcomed by the maintenance team, we have typically broken through the heat of
summer and host a few months of beautiful weather.This is a great time to clean up some perimeter areas on the golf course,
though it won’t be long until the leaves begin to fall! Keeping the property clean of debris and leaves becomes a major focus of
our operation, and increases with a passing tropical storm or hurricane. Hurricane Matthew brought strong winds and heavy
rain, resulting in more than a dozen downed trees on the Princess Anne property. Your golf course maintenance team met the
challenge, opening the golf course for play the following week!

Winter – One of the first questions we hear is “What do you do during the winter?” Many are often surprised to hear of the
efforts put forth during this time. With a smaller staff, this is our opportunity to maintain equipment and facilities, as well as
complete projects on the golf course. Over the past few winters, the maintenance team has installed the sandy natural cart paths
on various holes, upgraded aspects of our irrigation system and improved several bunkers with updated Better Billy specifications.
Wesley McClung, our Equipment Technician, works to sharpen mowers and service nearly every piece of equipment in our
fleet. Additionally, we take advantage of dormant bermudagrass to make herbicide treatments throughout the property. Without
question, the winter months are an excellent opportunity to prepare for the upcoming year.

Spring – This is an exciting time of year for us on the golf course maintenance team. You can typically find us finishing up
projects from the winter months, while welcoming a steady amount of play on the golf course.The pine straw bales are delivered
by the truckload and the flowers at the clubhouse are a welcome sign of warmer weather in the forecast.The spring months are
a busy time for our team, as we push our playing surfaces with sand topdressing, aerification and nutrient applications. We also
continue cleaning up perimeter areas on the property and look ahead to various opportunities to “showcase” the Princess Anne
Country Club.

Have you noticed the new planters that have been popping up around the club grounds this year? Whether it’s at the
clubhouse entrance, Breakers Boulevard courtyard or one of the other many locations around the Princess Anne Country
Club grounds, the fresh new pops of color have been making their way around. Decorative planters are one of the best ways to
brighten up a space which otherwise would be “plantless.”
Plants are nature’s architecture and with the right combination of textures and colors you can transform a space into something
that makes a statement. The composition of a planter is important to the place it sits. The size, color and shape of the pot help
accent the plants that fill it, as well as the area around it. Spaces with more neutral materials work well for plants with bold and
bright colors. Spaces with busy details and colorful architecture are the perfect spot for shades of greens and white. Layering
plants with different colors and foliage textures will help build interest throughout the season.
As we introduce color with our seasonal annuals and accent planters, the club grounds will become much more lively for our
members and guests. One of the challenges of planters is choosing the right plants for the right place. Sunny spots work well
for most plants, but shady areas are often a challenge. Using plants with tall bold forms or long hanging vines that thrive in
shade is the best way to get an impact in these difficult areas. Save the bright and bold colors for the sun where they will do
best!
One of the biggest mistakes in planter construction is drainage. All planters need a way for water to escape, especially in the
winter! Even though it’s cold out, your plants still need water. They may not dry out as quickly as they do in the summer, but
they still get thirsty even in our coldest days. Make sure there is proper drainage to allow excess water to get out. Freezing and
thawing often damages plant roots and pots when too much moisture is built up inside the pot.
If you’re like me, the first few weeks of cold weather and early nights are certainly a disappointment. After the fall colors
are gone, we are left with the plant blues of winter. Find some beautiful pots and fill them with happy colors to help get you
through the cold season. Try incorporating some lights into your designs to add an extra touch at night!

2016 PASMGA Year In Review

Senior golfers enjoyed another sucessful year in 2016. The Princess Anne Senior
Men’s Golf Association continues to provide a weekly opportunity for members of
the organization to play golf, socialize and have fun with other members. The group
averaged 32 players per play day, which were held each Wednesday at 8:30 am from
April through October. The success of the association was a direct result of the hard
work from our officers and board: President Jim Altmeyer, Vice President Tuck
Finley, Secretary Bud Jewett and Treasurer Charlie Greiner. The Board Members
included: Beau Walker, Jim Allen, Mickey Walker, Jim Gregory, Jerry Clarke, Mark
Costenbader and Bill Mizell.
We would like to congratulate Robert Fuqua for winning the Senior Cup and being
recognized as the PASMGA Player of the Year.
Anyone interested in joining PASMGA for 2017 can contact the Golf Shop for more
details. Thank you all for a great season and we look forward to many more to come!

Junior Golf Year in Review

Year in and year out the Princess Anne Junior Golf Program is one of the most
sought after programs in the state of Virginia. With more than 78 children
participating, this year was no different. Our junior golfers continue to excel on
many different levels. Eighteen of our Junior Program graduates are currently on
their high school golf team. We saw our PGA Junior League team grow from 14
players in 2015 to 27 this year. Two of our junior golfers, Miller Carr and Carson
Poulos, competed in the World Championships of Pinehurst. Miller made it to
Regionals held at Baltersal Golf Club for Drive, Chip & Putt. Miller Carr was the
recipient of the 2016 Beck/Paolini Award, given to the Junior Golfer of the Year
from our program. The success of our program has been attributed to the hard work
from our Junior Golf Director, Chris Speaker and the rest of our golf professionals!
Thank you to all of our young golfers and their parents for another great year!

Golf Tip
Golf Ball Selection: Yes, it Matters!

It’s amazing how many golfers spend thousands of dollars on golf clubs. They Matt Liebler, PGA
then spend another hundred or two for golf shoes. After the dust has settled,
they spend as little as possible on golf balls, not realizing that they will affect
their score. Choosing the right golf ball is almost as important as choosing your
golf clubs. Below are five basic steps to help you determine what kind of ball you
should be using.

Step 1
Assess the level of your game before you pick out a golf ball. If you are a beginner, you need a golf ball that is durable and
will add distance to your shots. If you are a more advanced golfer, you might choose a ball that allows more control of
your shots. If you have a low handicap, you probably can sacrifice durability, as you don’t miss-hit many shots that can do
damage to the ball.

Step 2
Recognize that golf ball manufacturers produce three different types of balls, each with different properties. Some make the
two-piece ball that will allow the golfer to get the most distance from his shots. Those golf balls have a hard outside cover
that is very hard to cut. These golf balls are best for beginners.

Step 3
Choose a three-piece golf ball if you are a low handicap golfer. These balls sacrifice some distance but make up for it by
increasing the amount of spin, which aids the golfer in controlling his shots. They do this by using a softer cover, usually
made of balata, and a solid core that is wrapped with a third material. Its softness allows the golfer the have more “feel.”

Step 4
Pick a golf ball that combines the properties of both. To appeal to the most golfers, manufacturers make a third type of
golf ball, an all-purpose variety. These balls are more durable and impart less spin than the three-piece ball. These balls are a
good compromise for most intermediate players.

Step 5
Choose the right compression for your game. Most
manufacturers promote golf balls with different
compressions, or softness. If you hit the ball a short
distance, consider a ball with a 60-70 compression.
If you hit the ball a long way, you’re ready for a ball
with a 100 compression.

As always, your Golf Professionals are more than
happy assist you with selecting a golf ball that best
suits your game.

Tennis Talk

Happy New Year to all! We hope everyone enjoyed their holiday season and that all those traveling made it home
safely. Our tennis programs will resume the second week in January.

Looking back on 2016, Princess Anne’s Centennial year, we had a year packed with tournaments, cup events and
special events! For the first time ever, our PACC tennis team brought home the Fun Cup trophy. Our men’s team
also took first at the Tidewater Cup. Noticeable second place finishes in 2016 were our Spindle Cup and Junior
Country Club Cup teams. We introduced a new competitive yet social event called the International Premier
Tennis League. We got the idea from the tennis professionals that started the league. We hosted five of those
events, and all of them were a blast! We also had Murphy Jensen, 1993 French Open Doubles Champion, and
his touring partner, Cameron Lickle, visit the club for clinics and an exhibition as well as hosting a Wimbledon
Wooden Racquet Event. Overall, a great Centennial year for the members and team!

John’s Tip of the Month

Adjusting to the Indoors

Now that we have entered the indoor season there
are a few tricks that you might want to have up your
sleeve. Most of you are probably thinking, “What
adjustments? Indoor tennis is so easy! No elements,
perfect environment.” While that is true there are some
adjustments to be made so here are some tips for you to
outsmart your opponents when you play indoors:

1. Indoor courts are more constricted with less run off
space. Use your wide serve more frequently to make the returner run out of room when moving out to hit it.
Wide angled shots of any kind work well too.

2. The back wall in the bubble as well as the back curtain indoor is a lot closer which means that you can use
high, loopy, rollers to force the opponent to run out of space when backing up to return it.

3. With a lower ceiling in the bubble close in tighter on the net when moving in. This invites the lob that
invariably hits the ceiling and also in the bubble, refrain from attempting a down-the-alley doubles return lob
on the revolving door side of court 2, as it is a near impossible shot.

4. The indoor hard surface has become faster over the years with all the abuse it gets. Use low, biting slices
whenever you get the chance, especially when approaching the net. Your opponent will have a devil of a time
picking it up and if they do, you’ll be in for the kill!

5. When playing in the bubble, the clay courts are often drier than usual. Take advantage of your opponent’s lack
of traction by hitting behind them as they are recovering to the middle.

Fitness Success Story | Joan Berlin

What prompted you to begin working with your trainer? I was
prompted to begin working out with Larissa by a comment she made when
she was giving me a massage. She told me that my muscle tone was weak! I
admitted that I had cut back on exercise while raising the children. I was ready
to get back in shape but didn’t know where to begin or how to ensure I didn’t
injure myself. Larissa suggested personal training, and the rest is history!

How would you describe the workouts? The exercises include a variety
of cardio, weights and yoga stretches. They are always varied and fun!

Do you do other workouts/activities when not with your trainer?
I attend PACC group classes like Tabata, as well as hot yoga classes.

Has your diet changed? If so, how? My diet has not changed
significantly, but Larissa and I discuss nutrition and enjoy trading recipes and
tips for healthy eating.

Are there any obstacles you had to overcome with regard to
eating or exercising? I had to overcome my resistance to doing exercises
that I didn’t enjoy because I saw the benefit of them. Larissa pushes me harder
than I would push myself.

What physical results have you seen? My arms and back are more
defined, my core is much stronger and my balance is better.

Have you noticed changes in other areas of your life as a result
of your training program? I have better stamina for all activities as a result
of my training regime. I also have a brighter, more upbeat attitude.

What would you say is the most important factor in success?
Changed eating habits? Exercise? Changed thinking? Something
else? The most important factor in success is to enjoy what you are doing so
that you will continue to do it. Consistent exercise is so important to overall
health!

What do you like best about working with Larissa? Larissa is
amazing! She gears each workout to my energy level and to the parts of my
body that she thinks need work. Also, no two workouts are alike, which keeps
me from getting bored.

What advice would you give someone considering working with a trainer? Do it! It is the best gift I
have ever given myself.

Fitness Success Story | Gail Malmgren

What prompted you to begin working with your trainer? I have worked out with a variety of trainers off
and on for years. I feel it is more important as I age to maintain as much bone density and muscles as is realistic. If I
have a time commitment I am much more likely to “show up” than sleep in.

Do you do other workouts/activities when not with your trainer? I do group exercise classes here at
PACC – Core & Conditioning with Laura and Sabine’s pilates class are my current favorites. When I miss a workout,
I try to get to the gym to work out on my own. I also have three dogs that I walk every day.

Has your diet changed? If so, how? I’ve been a healthy cook for years, but things are always changing and I try
to keep up! I eat clean most of the time, substituting water for diet coke, and staying away from fried foods and sugar.

Are there any obstacles you had to overcome with regard to eating or exercising? I like to be lazy in
the mornings, but it is my best time of day to get out and work out. If sweets are around, they’re all I can think about,
so I typically don’t buy them. If I want ice cream I go out for it instead of having it in the house.

What physical results have you seen? I am much firmer and stronger everywhere. My husband tells me that
my legs look better now than they did 33 years ago (and they were pretty darn good back then)! I feel better when I
dress knowing that I am probably in the best condition of my life.

Have you noticed changes in other areas of your life as a result of your training program? I
definitely have more energy and find myself encouraging those I care about to get out there and exercise. I don’t let
things bother me as much anymore. If I am stressed, I exercise.

What would you say is the most important factor in success? Changed eating habits? Exercise?
Changed thinking? Something else? Probably my change in thinking. For the first time in my life I am
dedicated to being as healthy as possible for the rest of my life and that includes being mindful of each of those things.

What do you like best about working with Larissa? Larissa makes me smile. She pushes me as far as we
both think I am capable of and then some. If I am sore somewhere, we stretch that area or she massages the discomfort
away. I feel lucky to have her as part of my support team!

daily life. They’re often used for immune support,
relaxation and sleep, stress relief, emotional balance,
skin care, respiratory health, green cleaning and even
muscle tension and pain. In this class, you’ll learn about
Young Living Essential Oils - therapeutic grade oils
produced with a 100% commitment for purity and
optimal benefit. We will discuss common methods of
use, antibacterial properties of specific oils, and how
you can create a more natural, healthy lifestyle with
aromatherapy.

PARTNER THAI YOGA MASSAGE
FEBRUARY 15 | 6:15 PM Fitness center
Larissa Van Dyke I 90 min. I $40/couple

Thai Yoga Massage is a technique that can help relieve the body of years of tension and stress by opening
tight joints, lengthening muscles and providing a deep
sense of well-being and relaxation.

In this workshop, you and your partner will learn a
sequence of stress-releasing stretches, assisted yoga
poses and rhythmic deep tissue massage. Thai Yoga
is “like having yoga done to you, all the benefits
without the effort.” Combined with mindful breath
and meditation, you will leave this unique experience
feeling relaxed, energized and more balanced. Bring a
friend, spouse or yoga buddy or be paired up when
you arrive. No experience is necessary.
