Due to the fact that members of Lake Bracken Country Club did not have an opportunity to provide input prior to the board decision not to renew the contract of J.R.Millar for 2018 in order to place a newly hired manager over all operations in 2018 we are circulating this petition.

Our stance, as members of Lake Bracken Country Club, is that retaining our current PGA Professional, J.R. Millar, for 2018 is necessary to the continued success and recognition of the Lake Bracken Country Club Golf Program. This PGA Professional has been a loyal employee for many years. The programs for junior and beginner golfers as well individual lessons on request are strong pieces of the golf program that has been established successfully at LBCC. His involvement with local high school and college programs is significant. These programs grow our membership. This PGA Professional organizes events for all levels that provide members with a variety of opportunities for involvement. The merchandise that he is able to provide due to his many connections with club and clothing marketers is well received by all members. Having a PGA Professional of the caliber of J.R. Millar is an asset to the Club as a whole. Giving up the employment of a PGA Professional may and probably will affect many aspects of the golf operation at LBCC negatively.

It is our position that the retention of J.R. Millar, PGA Professional, is necessary to the continued success of the LBCC golf program. We are requesting that this decision be reviewed and reversed.
