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.
Wanted to say that I am hoping that our president and board of Directors will come up with a fair and equitable agreement to have our pro JR remain for our 2018 season and beyond so that our golf programs remain outstanding. I believe that although change does happen if it isn't broken don't try to fix or change it.
