I agree there must be a better and fairer way to move forward with this. More senior members with no interest (or fitness) to play golf will not pay the extra to become full members which will cut off their access to what may be a huge part of their lives.

I had sent a letter to the Board via Pres. Brantley and the Membership Chair re their email 'letter' of the 13th.... conveying my displeasure of this unkind and yes, harsh, action taken toward the Associate members.. who the Country Club was in 'clear need' of...and now wish to discard.. A 2nd email letter received on 10/1 ...to be answered.

Hopefully a solution can be achieved that respects past Associate contributions/equity and future Sawgrass CC success/fiscal integrity.

My wife and I have been Club AM for 22 years and agree this is no way to treat us . We disagree with recalling Ass Membership and the one option offered to remain with Sawgrass which anyone walking in off the street could pay the $50K to be a member . We have met with the membership director and sent a letter to Club President with our shock at this treatment .

This is a very significant event for loyal and long standing members and always should have had wide distribution and not be buried on minutes yet to be posted.

I believe we need to find a way to grandfather Associate Members with an adjustment to their monthly dues.

I disagree with terminating all Associate Memberships. Many have been with us for a long time. Not allowing them in the future is fine.

It seems harsh not to apply an actuarial plus years with the Club as a score for how long the member has before leaving. At age 81 with 17 years as an Associate member 3 months notice is unreasonable. Naturally, a non sports couple at 81 years old will not pay the 35,000 for a full membership
