WHAT OUR MEMBERS ARE SAYING...

Dear Fellow Members,

Fitness Classes and Spa Great team!

Spring is finally here, and what a beautiful time to be in Forest Highlands! In preparation for a busy summer season, our leadership team spent a considerable amount of time reviewing and planning for the year during our Annual Board Retreat on April 26th – 27th. Each department presented their action plan for 2024, and I can confidently say, on behalf of the board, that this will be the best season yet.

Club Excellent experience since 2003. Great people, facilities, and golf Best 36 holes of golf in Arizona. Great family community.

our small city and how much energy the people in charge of it have. We are very fortunate to have such a skilled group of people managing our community.

Golf season is almost upon us! We are diligently preparing for the 2024 Golf Course Opening, and we anticipate the Meadow Course opening on May 3rd-5th, Canyon Course on May 10th-12th, and both courses being open for summer on May 15th. The Greens & Golf committee officially shared the new mission statement, aiming to elevate the Canyon Course to Top 100 status by 2027. Strategies discussed included increased attention to detail, hosting golf raters, improving agronomic programs, better supporting golf department staff, involving the department in maintenance, member engagement, and

Reliability, trustworthiness, and ease of use for their services.
