Lake Panorama NationalGolf Course:

Lake Panorama National Golf Course is the main attraction atthe Resort and offers one of the best-conditioned courses in the state of Iowa. In 2008, a doublerow irrigation system was installed making even better course conditions forplayers of all skill levels. Golf Digest gives the magnificent golf course a4-Star Rating on it’s Places to Play in

America

. The golf course is truly a“must play” course in Iowa.

Lake Panorama National Golf Course is the host of the IowaOpen Golf Championship. The Iowa SectionPGA and Brokers International Ltd. signed a five year deal in 2009 to host theIowa Open at Lake Panorama. Brokers International Ltd. will be the titlesponsor of the championship from 2010 to 2014.

The Brokers International Ltd. Iowa Open will be playedAugust 16 – 19, 2012. The Iowa SectionPGA, Brokers International Ltd. and Lake Panorama National Resort are excited foryear two of the championship as it will continue to get bigger and better everyyear.

2012 Golf Membership Information:

As we close out 2011, we want to thank you for another greatyear at Lake Panorama National. Your staff is already gearing up to ensure your2012 golf season will be the best ever.

As part of our planning for 2012, we conducted acost/revenue analysis of the rounds played this year. Just less than 27,000rounds of golf were played at LPN in 2011. Expenses for the golf operation andgrounds maintenance were about $500,000, which translated into a per-round costof $18.51.

We took the analysis one step further and looked at memberand non-member rounds and related revenue. We found each member round broughtin $16.98, with each non-member round at $24.89. Members accounted for 49% ofthe rounds.

This analysis demonstrated two things. One, the LPN needsboth member and non-member rounds to pay the bills, as costs to maintain ouroutstanding golf course continue to rise. Two, memberships, trail fees andmember range fees didn’t cover the per-round costs for members in 2011.

For 2012, some increases are being made in our daily andstay-and-play fees. We also determined a dues increase of about 10% isnecessary for members. But you can reduce that increase by acting soon! If you take advantage of Early Bird ratesand pay in full by January 31, 2012, your increase will be just 5%. Themembership application clearly shows the advantage of the Early Bird paymentoption.

Below you’ll also find information on 2012 events andSpecial and Distance membership applications. Special Memberships are limitedto those who were not LPN members in 2011. Distance Memberships are for peoplewho are not LPA members, and do not have a residence within 18 miles of LPN.

Please think about people who might be interested in an LPNmembership. You will receive a $50 Pro Shop Merchandise credit for every newmembership you sign up for 2012. You also will receive two free rounds of golfwhen we receive your 2012 membership application and payment.

To add more value to your LPN membership, we are againsecuring reciprocal agreements for 2012. We expect these to include AmesG&CC, Bent Tree GC (Council Bluffs), Briarwood Club (Ankeny), Carroll CC,Elmwood CC (Marshalltown), Fort Dodge CC, Indianola CC, Lake Creek GC (StormLake), Legend Trail GC (Parkersburg), Waverly GC, Mason City CC, Spencer CC,The Ridge GC (Sioux Center), Ottumwa CC, Landsmeer GC (Orange City), WillowCreek (Lemars), Majestic Hills (Denison) and Atlantic G&CC.

Winter Golf Course Conditions:

The Golf Course will remain open for play as long as weatherand course turf conditions permit.

In our annual effort to protect our turfgrass during thewinter months and ensure course conditions are optimal for next spring, thefollowing maintenance has been completed.

Heavy Top Dressing of all the greens.

The Top Dress will remain on the greens over the winter forturf protection. The Top Dressing will help protect the blades of grass by notexposing the crown of the plant. Even though the course is open, the topdressing is required for our greens and will hopefully help and limit thedamage to the plant’s crown caused by foot traffic.

CART PATH ONLY until next spring.

All golf carts must remain on the cart paths during yourround. This also includes remaining on the paths to and from the golf course.The irrigation system has been shut down for the winter. Therefore, it is veryimportant that golf cart traffic remain off the turf.

Remember: Golf cart tracks made in November will still bevisible in the spring.

We hope the weather provides a couple more days of golf andwe ask that everyone help protect our turf during the upcoming winter months

Dear Members:

One word for the weather, PERFECT, and I hope everyone has had a chance to get out and enjoy it. I want to thank all those who participated in our Iowa / Iowa State couple’s event, we almost topped 100 players and fun was had by all.

As we enter into fall you will begin to notice Dan Wollner and staff beginning their fall golf course projects. You may want to call the pro shop to see what work is being done on any particular day. We appreciate your support and patience. The course in general continues to be in great shape and with all the heat and dry weather this summer, Dan and his entire staff continues to keep the LPN in superb shape.

This is the time the course begins to slow down but many rounds of golf can still be played. September and October can be used to keep find tuning your game. Fall weather and the fall colors can make for an enjoying morning or afternoon round.

Hope to see at the course.

Donation Brings LPN Fountains to Five:

All five ponds on the Lake Panorama National golf course now feature a fountain. The new addition is a fountain installed in the #7 pond in August, thanks to the ongoing generosity of Roger and Jane McCarty.

The fountain was donated in memory of Roger’s brother, Dale McCarty, Jr., and is the latest improvement to the #7 pond. Last fall, the McCartys donated $25,000 to renovate the pond, which involved having railroad ties removed, rebuilding the pond’s shoreline, and installing boulders around the entire perimeter.

This fall, the McCartys donated another $15,000 to cover the cost of the new fountain, plus running electrical service and installation.

In 2009, Molly Gerlich and Jim Hartman were the first to donate a fountain, which was placed on the #9 pond. That same year, the McCartys donated fountains for the ponds on holes #5 and #15. In 2010, a fountain was added to the #13 pond by friends of Roger and Jane McCarty in recognition of their support of the LPN.

Another golf course improvement this year is new water cooler holders. Larry Kleinwolterink designed and built four wooden boxes to hold water coolers and cups on the course. He also built one for the driving range that not only holds a water cooler and cups, but also features clocks and a slot for scorecards and pencils.

The $250 cost of materials for the water cooler project was covered by donated funds left over from the 2010 construction of two on-course bathrooms.

August 29, 2011 LPN Newsletter

2011-08-29T12:18:00.000-05:00

Dear Members:

It is hard to believe that Thursday will be September 1. It seems like each year, the summer goes by quicker and quicker. It has been a busy summer at LPN and as we move into fall, hopefully the weather will remain nice so players can enjoy a golf course that is in fine shape.

I want to thank everyone that was involved with making the Iowa Open such a special event. Without Brokers International, Leroy Oxley and all the volunteers that have put so much time and effort into the event, it wouldn’t be such a premier event for the state of Iowa. Talking with many of the professionals that played in the tournament, I heard nothing but great things about the Brokers International Ltd Iowa Open. I would also like to thank Roger McCarty for his announcement of the 2012 top prize will be $25,000. This will only make the Iowa Open bigger and better!

Over the weekend, the Ladies Solheim Cup was held and congratulations to Captain Jolene Wright and her team for winning the cup. With the stormy weather, the event was cut short with only nine holes being played and her team won by just one point over Captain’s Judy Contners team. Thank you to all the ladies that played in the Soheim.

With fall around the corner, football season will be kicking off and the Links is a great place to watch some football and enjoy great food and drinks. Thank you for your continued support of the Links Restaurant.

Have a great Labor Day weekend and hope to see you all soon

John Dinnebier

General Manager/Director of Golf

Brokers International Ltd. Iowa Open Championship

AILES WINS BROKERS INTERNATIONAL LTD. IOWA OPEN

Flooding in North Dakota brought the winner of the 2011 Brokers International Ltd. Iowa Open to Lake Panorama National Aug. 19-21. Tim Ailes of Lewis Center, Ohio, won the tournament with a three-day total of 201 — 15 strokes below par.

Ailes shot 66 Friday and again Sunday, with a 69 on Saturday, to earn a $10,000 check. Roger McCarty, CEO of Brokers International, Ltd. presented the check, which was an increase of $2,500 over the first place prize a year ago.

During his presentation, McCarty announced he will again increase the 2012 top prize to $25,000. That’s in addition to the $25,000 annual contribution the Panora insurance marketing company has pledged in a contract with the Iowa Section PGA that brings the tournament to Lake Panorama National at least through 2014.

Ailes is a frequent player on the Dakotas Tour, where this summer he has won once, placed second three times, and been in the top 15 another seven times. He had planned to play at the Minot Country Club this weekend but the event was cancelled due to flooding. “When that tournament was cancelled, I looked around for somewhere else to play and discovered the Iowa Open,” Ailes said. “I’m really happy it worked out this way.”

Brady Schnell of Milford took second place, finishing two strokes behind Ailes. Judd Gibb of West Des Moines took third place at 11 strokes under par.

Steven Ihm of Peosta was the low amateur in the open division, finishing three strokes under par. Ihm will join the University of Iowa men’s golf team for the 2011-2012 academic year.

Kevin DeNike of Davenport won the professional senior division with a final score of 206, earning a $1,855 check. Jim Currell of Boone was the amateur senior division winner with a three-day score of 220.

The total purse for professionals competing in both the open and senior divisions totaled more than $60,000. All players who made the cut for Sunday’s round received a check.

For the first time since 1998, the tournament had a full field of 144 players. The entry deadline was still three weeks away when the roster was complete.

One reason the field filled so quickly was because the Iowa Section PGA board decided to open it to 40 out-of-state players. In the past, it was limited to players living in Iowa or with Iowa ties.

Troy Christensen, executive director of the Iowa Section PGA, praised local tournament organizers. “The thing I’ve heard the most is how much the Panora community supports this event,” he said. “With Brokers International, the Iowa PGA, the Lake Panorama National staff, and local volunteers, we have a perfect partnership to make this the premier golf tournament in Iowa.”

Ailes praised the condition and layout of the Lake Panorama National golf course, and thanked tournament organizers and volunteers. “The support here was awesome,” he said. Ailes said he will return to the Dakotas Tour to complete this year’s schedule, and plans to attend the PGA Q-School this fall.

Dear Members:

Where did the summer go? Each year seems to move faster and it is hard to believe the kids Katie and Tanner will go back to school on Wednesday. We sure have had some nice weather the past few weeks and it is nice to see the heat go away. Oh well, it is state fair time so I am sure the weather will heat up soon.

Thanks to all who participated in this year’s Ryder Cup. Both Captains (Larry Kleinwolterink and David Wagler) did an outstanding job and fun was had by all. Captain Kleinwolterink and his team captured the cup this year by a margin of 4pts. The weather was fantastic and every year when I see all the carts following the shoot outs and the scene around the final hole it makes me again remember what a special place we have at the LPN.

This week is year two of the Brokers International Iowa Open. This is the first year the field is full with 144 players since the tournament left the LPN 12 years ago. A gigantic thank you to Leroy Oxley, committees, the volunteers and last but most important Roger McCarty and Brokers International. This year’s event is scheduled to bigger and better and I cannot thank you enough for all the support. Spectators are welcome and encouraged.

Hope to see everyone soon.

Until next time……

40^th Club Championship:

On a day when the weather could not be any better, one player decided to play like it—cool, calm, and salty! Panorama’s “Favorite Sun” wins the 40^th Club Championship.

Jaron Smool hung on and went to Sudden Death to edge Ethan Mechling with a par on the first extra hole of the playoff. Jaron Smool, the Senior-to-be at Buena Vista won his first Major Title with rounds of 71-77 and follows an epic, distinguished and storied history over the last 40 years. Jaron’s name will be engraved in Lake Panorama National history and lore for centuries to come.

One spectator during the playoff summed it up best: “Great young man--Great Champion” for Lake Panorama.

“I played great”, said Smool who is playing some of the best golf of his life. “We had great competition for the Championship and I am so proud to be a part of this tradition at Lake Panorama”

Finishing in second was Ethan Mechling, the former All American from Graceland College. Ethan fired rounds of 75-73. After sudden death, Ethan stated “I’ll be back—nobody runs a tournament better than you [Lake Panorama Staff] guys.” Third place finisher was Panorama’s own Matt Mikkelsen who had a two day total of 76-75-141. Fourth Place was Brian Fliehler (152) and multiple past champion Bill Douglass (152).

In the Senior Division, Mike Mumma from Jefferson successfully defended his Senior Title Crown with scores of 79-79-158. Runner-up was Leroy Oxley with scores of 82-80-162. Third Place was David Thomas firing 83-84-167.

Denise Norwood also successfully defended her title of Women’s Club Champion with a two day total of 170 (83-87). Runner-Up was Carla Fitzgerald with round of 89-89-178. Third was Deb Douglass with a total of 189.

Will Babcock was Champion in the Junior Division. Will also successfully defended his Title with a 4-over par 40. That was enough to edge George Appleseth who finished with a 42.

Men Net: 139, Corey Welberg

Thank you to all the men that played in the 17^th annual Irv Gerlich Memorial Ryder Cup. What a great weekend of weather and great golf that everyone enjoyed. Captains Larry Kleinwolterink and Dave Wagler did a great job on putting on this year’s Ryder Cup.

With 80 players, there was 80 points available over the 3 days of play and at the end of Sunday’s single matches, Captain Larry Kleinwolterink edged out Wagler by 4 points with a total of 42. Congratulations Captain Larry and his team for winning the 2011 Irv Gerlich Memorial Ryder Cup.

Thank you to the sponsors of this year’s Ryder Cup. Guthrie County State Bank, Farmers State Bank, Panora State Bank and Peoples Trust and Savings Bank were the major sponsors for this year’s Ryder Cup.

Other key events of the Ryder Cup was the Employee Shoot-Out on Friday night and the member Shoot-Out on Saturday night. With a new alternate shot format for the Employee Shoot-Out, the team of Jaron Smool & Kiefer Mathews won the exciting shoot-out. Dan Wollner & Leroy Oxley took 2^nd place while Justin Smool & Avi Anser took 3^rd. Thank you to Guthrie County State Bank & Barry Monaghan for sponsoring the shoot out.

Saturday’s shoot out involved taking the top ten low gross and net scores to form the two man teams. Winning the shoot out was the team of Adam Moline & Bruce Ahrendsen. 2^nd place was taken by Matt Mikkelsen & Bob Batschelet followed by Chris Mart & Brandon Waddle in 3^rd Place.

To close out the Ryder Cup, the 2012 captains were announced after Sunday’s dinner. Congratulations to Jeff Godwin & Jay Gerlich for being next year’s captains!
