    Enjoyed a delicious traditional thanksgiving meal at work, catered by Starmount, complete with some…read moregreat dessert. To start we had some super juicy Turkey, with sweet glazed ham, for side they had some stuffing, green bean casserole, tasty mashed potatoes and some fantastic sweet potato casserole topped with pecans. The dinner was complete with cranberry sauce, dinner rolls and gravy. Everything fantastic, and hit the spot all around. To top of a delicious team lunch we also a great selection of desserts, pecan pie, pumpkin pie and best of all "Starmount Pie", which is basically ice cream cake, with a burnt baked Alaskan style whipped meringue topping. Tons of food, and plenty for everyone to take some left overs...and actual thanksgiving hasn't even happened yet! It was a great meal, and tricky a nice gesture on ownerships part. Better than a pizza party. I'd definitely look into catering for a private event in the future.

    I cannot begin to tell you how many events I attended or hosted at Starmount Forest Country Club (…read moreaffectionately known as Starmount) during my 27 year tenure at the Community Theatre of Greensboro. So many bar and bat-mitzvahs, sweet 16s, weddings, anniversaries, rotary club meetings, fundraisers for the community theater and on and on and on. I was shocked but flattered when I walked into Starmount last Sunday to attend a former Wizard of Oz cast member's baby shower, that the manager recognized me and started telling me about all his memories of the events I was part of in years gone by. So nice! I don't know that much about the club in that I am not a golfer and I was never a member so my visits were limited to attending or hosting an event. I will tell you that they have a fantastic swimming pool and pool area, and I know many families that have enjoyed that pool over the years. They also have a very popular golf course and tennis courts that their members love. I was invited many times over the years to join a member for golf, and as much as I wanted to say "yes" to the CTG supporter, I instinctively knew I would make a complete fool of myself and kindly declined! I even suck at miniature golf!!! I remember when Doris Tanger, may she rest in peace, was still alive and she invited me to dinner at Starmount because she wanted to meet her son, Steven. Little did I know at that dinner that a decade later Steven would make a lead gift to the Tanger Center that so many of us enjoy today. I was never a country club kind of guy but I can appreciate what it offers if you are wanting an outlet for your family or yourself during your off hours. I seem to remember that their meals are quite good, they used to have a buffet as well ( maybe they still do) and I always appreciated the warmth and professionalism whenever I attended something, including last Sunday. As I stood there and watched Costen celebrate the soon-to-be coming of his first baby, I remembered when he was 5 years old as a lollipop kid in The Wizard of Oz and I cannot help but wonder where did the years go? But it was a comforting feeling to know that no matter how much time goes by, The Wizard of Oz still captivates our community, and I will return again and again to Starmount Forest Country Club. This facility is a landmark in Greensboro and has served a segment of our community for decades. Conveniently accessed off Holden Road, there's plenty of parking and plenty to do and plenty to eat. I wonder if the new generations will want to be part of a country club like my generation or those before me? It holds a certain appeal to some, but for me, I'd rather get on a plane or in my car and get out of town. But, if you can afford it, there's nothing like heading to the Starmount Forest Country Club for golf, swimming, tennis and a delicious meal or a special event!

    Went to HPCC for Christmas Eve dinner. I couldn't believe how busy it was. We heard two different…read morenumbers for attendance. One staff member told us 750 guests were expected, another said over 900. Either way, it was a ton of people. Every single room in the Emerywood clubhouse was filled. There were long lines for the buffets, one set up in each hallway. The parking lot was full, so people were parking on the grass and in the street. I've never seen it so busy! I thought we're still supposed to be in a recession. The clubhouse was decked out for the holidays. A big "Happy Holidays" ice sculpture with changing lights was set up inside the entrance. At the ends of either hallway were two giant, well-decorated Christmas trees. Smaller Christmas trees were positioned in various rooms. A group of Christmas Carolers walked around and sang. They were dressed in traditional English attire and sounded great. Santa Claus was also present and he was quite an authentic-looking one, from beard to costume. The kiddies LOVED him. I almost wanted to get a picture with him, but I didn't want to stand in line with all the little munchkins. Because it was so crowded, the tables were really packed in, especially in the grill room. This made it difficult to maneuver in certain spots. Maybe they can improve upon this next Christmas. I'm not sure if they expected this many people to show up. I don't remember all of the foods, but some of the spread included three different kinds of salads, casseroles, stuffing, macaroni and cheese, green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, and freshly sliced prime rib, ham, and turkey. The dessert bar consisted of a variety of pies and ice cream. Pecan pie FTW. Generally, the food was good, as it normally is. I'm pretty sure the staff was at full force on Monday night. Everyone was incredibly polite and warm welcoming, even though they had to work on Christmas Eve. Kudos to them. Overall, I had a wonderful experience at HPCC's Christmas Eve dinner.

I don't know if the wait staff were from a caterer or a part of the Country Club staff, but I found them to be professional and polite. Easy to access parking area as well.

    I had a great time at Colonial Country Club in Thomasville, North Carolina. This Colonial Country…read moreClub is not to be confused with other clubs around the country that share the exact same name. I believe the most famous Colonial Country Club is the one in Fort Worth followed by Cordova, Tennessee (outside of Memphis). Both have hosted PGA Tour events with the former also hosting both a men's and women's US Open major championship. While this Colonial Country Club in North Carolina may not have that kind of history or prestige, it's still a nice, private club nonetheless and I found it to be real treat to play on. My dad and I had planned to play one of our usual rounds at his home club, High Point Country Club (Willow Creek golf course). However, because of a tournament at Willow Creek, we played here instead because the clubs have a reciprocal agreement in place. This was my first visit to Colonial, but not for my dad. He's played Colonial several times over the years with other High Point Country Club members for various reasons, reciprocity being one and tournaments, I believe, being another. He and my mom have also attended holiday parties at the clubhouse for Thomasville Medical Center. The day of my visit, the clubhouse and course were setting up for a wedding. The wedding ceremony took place on the scenic lakeside 16th fairway and it appeared the dinner reception was inside the clubhouse: https://www.instagram.com/p/COWFnSjhkP5/. Before playing any "new" course (new to me), I like to do a little research. For Colonial, I checked out their website, Facebook, and Instagram. Having lived in Atlanta for the past 20 years, playing golf in metro Atlanta, and following many Atlanta area golf courses on social media, I noticed something immediately when I looked at Colonial's IG -- the club is now managed by Atlanta-based Bobby Jones Links. The dead giveaways were the pictures of the staff members who were awarded Clover Leaf (employee of the month) awards. They do the same thing at courses I follow in Georgia like Bobby Jones Golf Course, Legacy and Fox Creek, and Cobblestone. What a small world. In general, I think Bobby Jones Links has done a great job on the social media front. Their shirts look nice too. There are scenic views shortly after driving onto the property at Colonial. The course features three lakes (Upper, Middle, and Lower). On the front nine, starting with the 5th green, you get great views of Upper Lake. The 6th hole, par 4, has a blind uphill tee shot which I was not a fan of (I don't like blind shots). Upper Lake comes into play on the 8th hole, par 3, which measures 178 from the tips (blues). No. 9 is dogleg left par 5. On that hole, you'll want to err right on your drive because the fairway slopes right-to-left. I sliced my drive to the right side of the fairway and it rolled down to the center, putting me in great position for my next shot. As far as the back nine is concerned, I thought the tee box for 10 was a little confusing for a first-timer with the way the boxes are positioned between 12 green, the practice short game area, and 13 tee, plus the way the cart path goes. No. 10 is also a par 5 so it's hard to see exactly where you're supposed to hit. Anyway, that's just a minor gripe. The 10th green is tucked away in a corner so you do need to set yourself up for a good look by hitting a decent second shot. Holes 16 and 17 are some of the most picturesque and beautiful on the course. A par 4, 16 bends left around Lower Lake while 17, a par 3, is similar to 8 on the front, with a forced carry over water, but significantly less water to cover. The front ends dogleg left, the back dogleg right (par 4), both finishing at the clubhouse. Colonial opened in 1958. There are five sets of tees. From the tips, the course measures 6,809 yards with a 72.3/126 rating/slope. Not too long nor difficult, relatively speaking. When we played, the conditions were very good overall. Both the tee boxes and greens were in excellent shape. The greens were firm and fast. The only thing I didn't like about them was you could clearly see where numerous holes had been previously cut (just me being picky). Parts of some fairways could have used some work, but generally, there were no glaring issues maintenance-wise to me. It was what I expected out of a private country club in Thomasville. As far as layout and design, aside from the aforementioned water holes, I do think the holes are a bit simplistic and lack creativity or variety. Many of the fairways and greens are huge and there aren't a whole lot of trees separating holes. That makes Colonial very playable and more enjoyable for high-handicap golfers like my dad and me. Most holes do not have homes on them, so in that sense, this course feels more secluded and pure which I like. There's a pool, tennis courts, locker rooms and showers in the clubhouse, and two air blowers to clean your shoes. Service was terrific. The staff was friendly.
