T H E BULLETIN AUGUST 2017

a newsletter for members of the wilmington country club

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE This month, I would like to focus on our Racquets Programs atWilmington Country Club. It seems that with two wonderful golf courses and the outstanding Clubhouse venues we have, the Racquets side of the Club might get overlooked. That would be a mistake, as our Racquets facilities, staff and programs are among the top in the country. In the last two and one-half years that I have been President of the Club, I have seen great growth in all our Racquet Programs, including tennis, paddle and squash. Tennis has seen the greatest increase with over 110 juniors and 100 ladies in the weekly winter programs and currently 18 USTA tennis teams this spring and summer. This is up from just 12 teams a few years ago. A recent survey found that we used 86% of all possible tennis court times and 96% of prime time tennis courts. Tennis is not alone in popularity as our paddle courts are full in the evenings with paddle clinics, round robins and our paddle league. The squash courts are filled in the early morning with our adult doubles play and every evening during the week. A great deal of this racquets success is directly due to our outstanding Racquets staff under the direction of Ed McQuillin. This staff and the programs they administer continue to grow with the recent addition of a part time squash assistant professional and this summer another full time tennis professional. All this has led to our Club receiving the USTA Middle States Premier facility award the last four years. We are the only Country Club in the four state area to receive this award. Please join me in expressing our appreciation to Ed McQuillin, Ed Chilton, Jeremiah DeJose, Jeff Wiedemann, and the rest of our Racquets staff for what they have provided leading to the success of our Racquets Programs. As always, thanks for reading. Joseph F. Hacker III President

A NOTE FROM PHIL August Greetings! As we move into the final month of summer, my desk is once again riddled with sticky notes containing topics that need to be shared. Please take a moment to review each to see if it applies to you and yours . . . • Although seating on the Outdoor Patio is "first come, first seated", we occasionally have a waiting list for tables. Please check indoors at the podium for availability rather than simply seating yourself.

• I suppose it comes with the season, but on several occasions, young children have been using the adult locker areas. Please permit me to remind you of the rule that states “children under the age of 16 and of appropriate gender are permitted in the Locker Rooms to use the bathroom or to change clothes, but must be accompanied by an adult.” • Lobster is the order of the day on August 16th and presents a great opportunity to entertain guests. Please make your plans to attend and call for reservations! • Congratulations to our kids on the Swim Team. Although the makeup of our league is changing, our focus on introducing our kids to fun, competition and good sportsmanship hasn’t. • We are beginning to see the apples in the orchard take on a lot of color. Don’t be deceived! Many times they appear ripe long before they are ready for picking. Peter will tag each tree with a green and white ribbon when that tree is ready. Enjoy! • A special thank-you! During the busy season, we utilize a fair number of summer employees to supplement our full time staff. Many of these individuals are college students working as interns or simply trying to make a few bucks for tuition.They work in all areas from Swim and Tennis to Golf and Grounds. I hope you’ll join me and take a moment to share your appreciation for their efforts before they leave.We could never get through the season without them. • There are also a couple of “parking lot” items that need to be addressed. First, and most importantly, please slow down and be cautious while driving in the parking lots. Follow all directional arrows and be sure to come to a complete stop at the bottom of the hill when exiting the upper lot. Also, be particularly aware of young children and cart traffic. Finally, please follow Delaware law and do not drive while texting or talking on your hand-held phone. •The next item is an attire issue. Please remember that swimsuits are only appropriate for the pool area. Cover-ups should be worn when leaving the pool, especially if your travels are going to take you someplace other than the upper parking lot. Swim suits are not appropriate in any Clubhouse dining area, including Café 1901 and the Pub . . . even if it is just to get a drink fromVictor.Towels are not “cover-ups” and cover-ups actually need to cover something up. • A few weeks ago we successfully introduced three new activities (Pickleball, Bocce and Croquet) for you to enjoy. The common thread is these are all fun, socially driven activities using the Hut as base of operations. Leagues are being organized through the Racquets Department. Organized play is currently scheduled for Tuesday evenings and every other Friday. • Our ever-popular pre-holiday bus excursion to New York City will take place on Wednesday, December 6th. Details regarding departure/return times will be announced shortly, but for those of you looking to get tickets to a show, that will be the date! I know that August is a time when many of you take off for some well-deserved vacation time. I hope you will have an opportunity to spend some time with us as well. Thanks for reading and I’ll see you at the Club! Phil Iannelli General Manager

BOOK CLUB Our Tuesday, August 1st selection is The Water is Wide , Pat Conroy’s memoir of his year teaching impoverished ten to thirteen-year-old black children on Daufuskie Island, South Carolina, referred to as Yamacraw Island in the book. This is an isolated island that can only be reached by boat. Most of the islanders were the direct descendants of slaves, had little contact with the mainland and were heavy drinkers. Many of the children were illiterate and innumerate. Conroy quickly discovered how little they knew when he asked them to write a paragraph describing themselves. Half could not express a complete sentence on paper, and some could not spell or even write their name. They had previously been taught by Mrs. Brown, the principal, who used beatings and ridicule to keep order and teach. Conroy wanted to reach his students and awaken them to the wider world beyondYamacraw, and so he began using unconventional teaching methods. Music, trips, movies, special guests, etc. - all became part of his arsenal to awaken them to the joys of learning. There were always obstacles, such as crossing the wide river to get back and forth from the mainland to the island. Dealing with the administration during the height of the civil rights era in the South was sometimes impossible. Join us on the 1st at 4:00 pm in the Ladies’ Locker Room as Jill McDonald leads the discussion of this moving memoir. Our September selection is Jodi Picoult’s book, Small Great Things , which focuses on race, prejudice, and justice. Ruth Jefferson, an African American labor and delivery nurse, has a major run-in with a white supremacist family which leads to the death of their newborn and finally to a jury trial which further exposes the problems with racial prejudice in America.

The August wines of the month are from Cambria Vineyard & Winery located in the Santa Maria Valley of California. Beginning with the August wine features, Anthony DiPilla, our Beverage Manager, along with my assistance, have selected wines that have some significance to the Club, its cuisine, as well as being great aperitifs to kick off your meal. I had the fortune while working in San Francisco, to deal directly with the wineries when purchasing wine. In addition, when we completely remodeled and repositioned our main restaurant at the hotel, it was a benefit to work directly with these wineries when I constructed a new wine list from scratch. It is during that process that I worked with the Regal Wine Group, which owns Cambria among many other high profile California wineries including Lokoya, Cardinale, Hartford Court and Matanzas Creek and many others. Having tasted a great portion of the wines in their portfolio, many times with the winemaker, it is exciting to feature some of Cambria’s wines here at Wilmington Country Club for August.

A NOTE FROM GROUNDS

AUGUST AERATION On Sunday,August 13th, at 3:00 pm, the South Course will close for aeration of greens, tees, and fairways. Hopefully, without excessive elements of rain, heat, or some other unforeseen disruptive element, the process should be completed by Wednesday. The front 9 of the South will reopen as soon as our processes are complete and cleaned up.The following week, beginning at 3:00 pm Sunday afternoon, we will be duplicating the same program on the North anticipating, once again, reopening by mid-week. As opportunity allows during that same roughly ten day period, we will accomplish the same on all other bent-grass entities including the Short Game Practice Area, other practice putting greens, grass tennis, and breezeway entrance. A question that is sometimes asked is:“Why do we aerate now when playing conditions and weather are still really good for our golfing members?” This question is not asked implying that the programs paramount importance is in

question... It’s just why not some other time? The question, as posed is probably a good part of the answer. Weather is probably the most important factor in turf recovery. Aeration during periods when weather favors turf growth inevitably leads to quicker recovery and shortens the return to excellent play quality. So, why don’t we do it earlier? Because, typically, the six week period from roughly the beginning of July to the middle of August is the most stressful period for turf survival mainly due to high heat. Usually, but not always, by mid-August, the shorter days and lower sun angles help reduce the duration of daily high temperatures and help reduce the potential for heat injury during the complex aeration program. If on occasion temperatures remain unseasonably warm, we do have the option during this period to shorten our day’s activities avoiding mid-day stress. Although this does inevitably prolong the overall duration of the process, it can prove a viable safety factor. Why not later... like we used to in the “old days”? Clearly, the more comfortable days of September and October are very popular months for general play and for season ending calendar events. Additionally, what we learned about the “old days” is that the cooler temperatures of fall aeration schedules proved a significant factor potentially increasing poa annua infestation. Poa, being the invasive weed-grass we so seriously malign, cannot compete with bent grass during the heat of August, but it will become active as cooler weather arrives and bent grass growth slows. Labor has also proven an issue in our scheduling. In mid-August we hope to be at full seasonal employee levels as many of our staff are getting ready to return to school. Once again, the complexity of the aeration program involves many, many processes occurring simultaneously. Straight forward body count can be a substantial factor affecting both effectiveness, efficiency, and duration of this event. In closing we must reiterate the significance of aeration and the accompanying top-dressing program. It is at best grudgingly accepted by our golfers and is by far the most arduous effort your grounds crew faces during the growing season. It is, however, the absolute foundation for turf excellence and playability.As always, we ask for your indulgence as we once again embark upon this vital work. Dan Pierson Director of Grounds

The beginning of our orchard goes back to the time when Henry Francis du Pont and his father, Algernon du Pont, were building what is known today as theWinterthur Estate.They had taken in nearby farms - the Martin farm where our grounds department is located today and the Clover Hill Farm where the homes of our General Manager and Grounds Superintendent are. The estate had grown to about 2200 acres, extending all the way over the hill to the Brandywine. Winterthur Farm was a community unto itself with family, employees and dependents in residence, adding up to about 220 people. It had a railroad station, a post office and an elementary school. A sawmill, operating in the woods across the meadow from today's 9th tee, was processing the timber from the property for building needs. In 1932, Mr. du Pont decided that he needed an orchard and he commissioned his Superintendent, Elmer Humphries, to come up with a plan. The result was not your everyday orchard. The planting plan, which is still available in the library at the museum, shows an impressive array of fruits and grapes. It called for 108 apple trees (22 varieties) on alternate rows with108 peach trees (10 varieties) and a number of plums, cherries, pears, apricots, nectarines and peacharines. It even had 10 vines each of 11 varieties of grapes planted on the north side of the fruit trees approximately where the split rail fence between the properties is today. References from the library point out that they were eating grapes not wine grapes. It must have been a pleasure in the 40's, 50's and 60's to browse the orchard and sample the rewards. Two men were employed, full time, to spray, prune and harvest the fruit. Cold storage and a cider press were located in theWest Chester area. Ice trucks were used in the summer to transport the fruit from the orchard and vegetables from a 5 1/2 acre vegetable garden (located near the fairway bend on today's 6th hole) to the family and their employees in the Hamptons. When 335 acres of the farm were set aside to form the Wilmington Country Club in 1951, the orchard and the garden were on the grounds of the new club. The conditions of the sale, however, were that the orchard and the garden would be retained for the benefit of Mr. du Pont and his family. Our North Course was completed in 1962 with a routing that respected those conditions. Long time members will recall that the road made a right turn at the present location of the 9th tee followed by a left turn around the orchard to the club house.

Following the death of Henry Frances du Pont in 1969 we took full ownership of our property. Soon two significant decisions by the Club affected the make-up of the orchard. A diagonal road was cut through the trees to straighten the entrance road and the 9th hole of the North Course was added at its present location along the fence. Saving the fruit trees was not a priority and the orchard was changed forever. The vegetable garden was plowed up and planted to make way for the rerouted 6th hole according to the present design. Going forward from 1969, the remaining orchard was maintained by our club as a necessity rather than an asset. The squirrels, the deer and the worms enjoyed the fruit but there wasn't much in it for the members. The life expectancy of peach trees is much shorter than that of apples and they were gone. The grape arbor was probably removed when the line between the properties was defined in 1952 and nearly all of the cherries, plums and apricots gave way to the construction of the 9th hole. The remaining apple trees were disappearing from age and storms when, in 1997, at the urging of one of our members, the Grounds Department undertook a program of pruning and spraying. At the time, 37 of the original trees had survived. A year later, a restoration program was started and 43 new trees were planted on the original grid of the orchard. For ease of maintenance the replacement trees were on semi-dwarf root stock and new varieties were selected based on disease resistance and compatibility with the mid-Atlantic climate. The rest, as they say is history. Under the supervision of our arborists, John McMillan, in 1998, and, currently, Peter Coates, the orchard has been sprayed and pruned to yield the treasure we have today. Unavoidably we have continued to lose the old trees until today there are only three from the original planting. Before long there will be none. But the orchard will survive. We have continued to replace the fallen trees with new varieties and peaches and pears have been planted along the fence. It is impeccably maintained for the benefit of our members and employees. A map, that is available in the club house during the harvesting season, is updated every year and 'green ribbons' are attached to the trees that, in the judgment of our arborist, are ready to pick. So enjoy the bounty between now and November and give Peter a wave when you see him in the orchard in his little white truck to show your appreciation. Roger Wilke - June 2017

WOMEN’S EIGHTEEN-HOLE GOLFERS

A FEW WORDS FROM JOE GUILLEBEAU

Jill McDonald President

Jan Hobbs Vice President

Katherine Klocko Treasurer

Leslie Porter Secretary

I thought that this is a good time to throw out a few reminders to all of our golfers. If anything I say applies to you, you know who you are. Practice Balls : Balls with PRACTICE on them are to be used on the range, at the short game area and the wedge range. They are not for play on the course or to hit over your least favorite water hazard. Short Game Practice Area : We have a beautiful Short Game Practice Area. It is a great place to perfect your putts, chips, pitches and bunker play. The correct way to execute chips and pitches requires no divot (Any questions should be directed to a PGA Professional). Any shot long enough that a divot is desirable should be played at the Wedge Range. The golf balls at the short game area are in a“Shag Bag” so that you can practice as much as you want, retrieve the balls and return them where you found them. Lately there have been an unusual amount of balls and shag bags left out. Demo Clubs :We invest in more Demo Clubs than almost any club in the Philadelphia area.We do this so that you can try clubs before you buy them. If you have tried a club three or four times you probably know if you like it. Every time you take it out, someone else cannot try it. These are not “loaner” clubs and should be returned after you demo them.
