PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Hello College Greens Families
It's hard to believe it's February already. April 16th (Opening Day) is just a short 2 1/2 months away. Soon the club will be buzzing with the sound of families enjoying the pool and the warm weather. But until then...
I want to extend a great big THANK YOU to those members who came out a few Saturdays ago to help finish the playground structure. The structure was leveled and the concrete footings were poured. All we need now is sand, sand and LOTS more sand, and the new playground will be ready for all kids to enjoy. Also I'd like to thank all of our members and friends who attended our annual crab feed. A great meal and a great time was had by all, despite the weather, and as always, all proceeds will go towards grounds and clubhouse improvements.

Don't forget we still have a few events before opening day. Come join us for "Souper" Bowl Sunday. Bring your best soup / stew / chili and compete for the coveted trophy and bragging rights, then watch the big game with your friends in the clubhouse. We will most likely have one or two workdays before opening day to get the club in shape, so put on your grubbies and come out and spend some time with your friends and help us polish up our club. Watch for e-vites in your email, and also check the club website (www.collegegreens.net) for dates and times of workdays. Have a great February, and we hope to see you in March at one of the workdays.

Ruben Reynoso, CGSRC President


Membership News
The Cabana Club currently has a small number of memberships available. Membership information and applications are available online. Remember, for every family you refer that joins your name will be entered in the drawing for a free one (1) year membership to be drawn in September at the General meeting. Congratulations to the McNamee family for winning the raffle for the 2011 season!

Annual Volunteer Deposits must be paid by opening day (April 16th) unless you have fulfilled your three hours per family by working at a Club workday or an approved Social Function. Checks in the amount of $50 can be mailed or dropped off at the Club in the secure drop box to the left of the entrance gate.

Payment Options: To encourage all of our members to pay either through EFT or annually we are offering two family guest passes (up to four guests each) to each family that switches from their current monthly check to either EFT or to an annual payment. As an added incentive, members who pay annually receive one month free for a total of $605 instead of $660 annually. Download the form (PDF)  or send me an email (membership@collegegreens.net) to let me know you would like to change your payment option.

Finally, if you have moved, changed phone numbers, email addresses or had any changes to your family please make sure to contact me so I can keep your information up to date.

Lisa Schneider, Membership Director


Lifeguards Needed

Summer 2011 is coming quick and the pool needs lifeguards. If you are lifeguard certified and are interested in working this season, please let Colleen Cardoso know ASAP @ 225-8430.

Volunteers Needed for Work Day

We can use help spreading sand around the playground and volleyball court on Sunday, Feb. 13th. This will count towards your volunteer hours. Please Email Tammie to confirm the date.

Clubhouse Rentals

The clubhouse is available for rental during the off-season. Please contact the Social Director, Jolie Torres.

Crab Feed

For yet another year the Cabana Club's Coolest Little Crab Feed in Sacramento was a huge success. Plenty of food, quenching cocktails, awesome raffle prizes, and good friends making priceless memories! See you all next year!

GET FIT AT THE CLUB
Fitness Ranger Bootcamp: If you haven’t participated yet, you don’t know what you are missing! The very popular Fitness Rangers Bootcamp continues to offer their six week, outdoor intensive program! Until the weather improves, bootcamp is being held at Bancroft Elementary School. We've arranged for very special pricing for our members, so this just one more benefit of being a part of the Cabana Club community. See the club's website for details.
