| PRESIDENT’S LETTER

                          Dear Member,
                                     E MADE IT THROUGH ANOTHER SEASON! Thank you for trusting us during all of the
                                      twists and turns of this past year. It has been an incredible season thanks to each and every
                                     one of you. Now, Summer is here and your staff has been working hard to ensure that this
                          summer is an enjoyable one. From creative Restaurant Pop-Ups to our popular virtual events, we are
                          confident that you will not be disappointed. Details regarding our holiday tournaments are located
                          in the golf and tennis sections of this issue.
                          For those traveling for the summer, we want you to stay connected with your Boca West family.
                          Although you are traveling, you do not have to “leave” us! You can still participate in Zoom activities
                          or take a personal training session with your favorite Boca West trainer from wherever in the world
                          you may be! Safe Travels, and we cannot wait to have you back with us soon!
                          As promised all the Tennis & Pickleball Club Champions are listed on pages 8-10. Congratulations to
                          all of our winners. We are so proud of you! Just like our golf champions, be sure to say congratulations
                          when you see them around the Club.
Our Mother’s Day Champagne Brunch will take place on Sunday, May 9 in Tavern on the Court. I am so excited to see
all of you there with your loved ones as we celebrate all of our treasured Moms. Reservations are available by calling Dining
Reservations. Please note that we may be forced to move the Mother’s Day Champagne Brunch to Panache pending the weather.
After last year’s success, we are bringing back the Cinco de Mayo and Memorial Day Pop-Ups as well as everyone’s
favorite the Lobsta Pop-Up! Please look out for emails from Communications with information and menus for these Pop-ups.
It has been so great to see many of you enjoying the Club with your families again. I have missed the “hustle and bustle” of how
things used to be, and it is heart-warming to see how much you all have clearly missed it as well. Thank you for being so diligent
in following all of the protocols in place so we can begin to safely enjoy the Club again.
With the closure of Mr. D’s, Roger’s Roadhouse Street Cart will continue lunch service at the Garden Terrace and Lawn on
Thursdays through Mondays with an enhanced menu on Sundays and the food trailer, Roadside Cravings is serving lunch
Tuesday through Saturday in its new location, the parking lot of the Country Club by Tavern on the Court. If you haven’t made it to
Onyx Lounge lately, head over to enjoy live music from 5:30-9:30pm Tuesday through Saturday evenings. Members dining with
us may enjoy live music and libations before and after dinner. If you are not dining with us, you’re still welcome to enjoy live music
and beverages after 7:30pm.
It’s full steam ahead with the renovations at Mr. D’s and in the Country Club. The all new Mr. D’s 19th Hole & Drive Suites
will be a “Top Golf” like experience that includes indoor and outdoor dining. We are all about what’s next which means we are
constantly evolving to bring you the best of the best and raising the bar to do things nobody else has done. Boca West is truly
going to be the most exclusive location for dining and entertainment.
Always remember, I welcome and encourage any thoughts, comments, or suggestions you may have regarding your Club.
I can’t wait to see you around!

Sincerely,

Matthew Linderman, CCM
President, COO & General Manager

                        as the Golf Committee
                        Chair. I’ve served on the
ON THE COURSES          committee the past four

                        years and have learned so much about our

                        golf community. I am excited to welcome

                        Bill Berkowitz to the committee as my Vice

                        Chair. It is hoped our new committee will

                        be    able    to   accomplish     as    many

                        improvements as the committee did under

                        our past chair Steve Foreman. Of course it

                        goes without saying that our professional

                        golf staff is under the outstanding

                        leadership of Brad “JR” Friend as the

                        Director of Golf Operations and Wes

                        Dinsmoor as Director of Golf Course

In the coming months I hope to present the various initiatives the Golf Committee is taking. Many of
the initiatives will be a continuation of previous Golf Committees as well as new ones. To name a few:
• Course Care — Of course this has to be the NUMBER ONE priority of the Golf Committee. Our
  membership has shown the willingness to buy into Course Care when we requested all golf carts

I hope that the Golf section of the Boca West magazine will be informative, so I couldn’t think of a more    Entry deadline: Sunday, May 16
important question to begin off with. “WHY AM I GETTING LATE TEE TIMES?” For an answer
on that I went directly to our Director of Golf Operations, JR for his explanation:                          Independence Day
Tee times have been a part of many lunch or dinner conversations over the past few months. As with           Tournament
many other clubs in our area, member rounds are up 15% for the first five months of our membership           Saturday, July 3
year. 15% equates to 15 (60 players) additional member groups per day. That is great news but that           Pick your own foursome
does not make getting a “prime time” tee time any easier. We remain with nine minutes intervals
                                                                                                             Tee time or shotgun TBD
between tee times to insure fleet carts are available for all those that need them and to insure we are
doing our part in keeping everyone safe. With single rider golf carts, pace of play is faster and shortens   Entry deadline: Saturday, June 22
the length of our double tee to insure a smooth pace of play. These factors result in 4-6 less prime tee
times per day on each course resulting in 16 to 24 tee times no longer available during “prime time.”        Labor Day Tournament
These factors cause tee times to be more difficult and certainly will not help when members are              Sunday, September 5

Once we get back to normalcy and we are riding two players in a cart and are able to get back to our         Tee time or shotgun TBD
normal tee time intervals, tee time history’s will improve but remember the system works by using            Entry deadline: Sunday, August 22
your group(s) combined history for the last 14 days and upcoming six days of tee times when
processing requests for each day of play. When your group is moved from the waiting list or your time
is changed, the system replaces your historical tee time with the new tee time. In other words, when
your tee time improves so does your history. To help with your tee times, please consider:
• changing your earliest time available to allow for more tee time possibilities
• link less groups together to allow the tee time system to have more flexibility
• do not restrict your group(s) to exclude a course from your selection effectively reducing available tee
  times by 25%
Stay safe and enjoy your golf!

As we approach hurricane season, BWMA reminds residents each year to be sure to take the necessary steps to be prepared. We
will soon be sending our BWMA Outlook Hurricane Preparedness Newsletter with additional information that can help all parties
involved. We know that our Boca West residents look forward to this edition of the Outlook as it provides significant safety information.
It is important to understand that BWMA, the Club, all property managers, the Village Associations and individual residents all have their
own responsibilities for safety during the hurricane season.
