A Message From General Manager, Beth Davis |

Dear Members, Residents & Friends of the North Palm Beach Country Club,
Are you ready to Spring forward this weekend?
Daylight Savings 2021 begins this Sunday, March 14th, when clocks will “spring forward” one hour. We will lose an hour of sleep overnight, however, the beautiful tradeoff is that sunset will be about one hour later.
Don’t forget to change your clocks so you don’t miss your golf tee and tennis court times!!

NPBCC Tennis Center, for the LOVE of the game!
We’re making progress on the grant received from the Florida Recreation Development Assistance Program (FRDAP) to renovate the tennis courts.
A contractor has been chosen, and beginning May 10th, six of the ten HarTru tennis courts will be renovated to include the scraping and removal of all old excess material and organic growth.
A total of 30 tons (5 tons per court) of new clay will be placed with laser-guided grading equipment to provide a smooth and even surface, while more drainage and landscaping work will be done.
We are still searching for a Tennis Supervisor and hope to have a professional in place in the very near future. If you hadn’t heard, Bree Addison, NPBCC Tennis Instructor, recently departed to accept a Tennis Coach position at Howard University. Though we were sad to see Bree go, we are all so very proud of her. What a great accomplishment!
In the meantime, Mike and I have been looking for more professional tennis instructors to help round out our amazing Team.

The improvements to the NPBCC golf course never end. In the next few weeks, you will see work being done to add a new electric pump to the existing pump station near #13 lake. 2000 linear feet of pipe will be run from the pump house to US-1. This addition will improve the water distribution to both the golf course and the Village common areas.
Currently, the water is shared, which affects the quality of the turf, as well as, limits watering times and locations, which has had negative effects on both golfers and passing cars with unwelcomed spray.
Head Golf Professional, Allan Bowman, will be coordinating the logistics with the vendor and we do foresee minimal disruption on the golf course.
Please remember to contact Assistant Golf Professional, Chris Dachisen, at (561) 691-3424, for information and/or to sign up for the popular Nine & Dine series and Club Championship tournament in April.
