President’s Letter – Winter 2021

/in /by

Dear Fellow MVCC Members,

Greetings from Mountain View!  I hope this finds you and your loved ones safe and well during these challenging times.  Snow is deep on the ground in Greensboro but preparations for our 2021 season are well underway.  As always, we plan to open in mid-May once we are clear of snow and ice.  While concern regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and the effect it is having on our family and personal affairs remains paramount, improvements shown in recent public health data, as well as the ongoing administration of coronavirus vaccines, gives one hope. 

Last year presented many challenges for MVCC but, with the support and good-natured understanding of our members, we succeeded in offering golf and tennis activities with relatively little interruption.   In fact, golf and tennis play in 2020 by our members increased by 28% and 19%, respectively, over 2019, and over 900 individual members, guests and visitors took advantage of the opportunity to engage in safe outdoor activities at Mountain View.

Greetings from Mountain View!

I hope that each of you and your families are keeping safe in the current COVID-19 crisis.  I’m writing to provide a brief update regarding our planning for Mountain View Country Club for the coming season.

On Wednesday, May 6, Vermont Governor Phil Scott issued Addendum 13 to his “Stay Home, Stay Safe” Executive Order.  The Addendum recognizes the importance of outdoor recreation and fitness activities and authorizes a number of those activities, including golf and tennis.  As a result, we plan to open Mountain View’s golf course on Saturday, May 16, and our tennis courts on Saturday, May 23, in each case subject to weather.

Due to the restrictions set out in the Governor’s Addendum and the related “Update 4” guidance issued by Vermont’s Agency of Commerce, as well as best practice guidance issued by various governing authorities for golf and tennis, we will be putting in place significant limitations on play, including:
