JOINT SURVEY RESULTS
The 2010 Joint SIC/SIPOA Survey provided tremendously valuable feedback with regards to our club operations. Overall the results were very positive, as significant improvement was seen in almost every aspect and a general opinion that the Club is moving in the right direction in terms of value and management. Some of the primary themes were...
Dining
Overall significant improvement and favorable remarks on the Pelican's Nest and Island House dining were received with improvements noted in our menu selections, staff friendliness, management's ability to handle issues in a timely manner and our dining facilities being a top choice when deciding where to eat. The reservations system at Pelican's Nest in late 2009 did not meet your needs, as was reflected in many comments, and a desire for longer hours and lengthened season were prominent as well. We have extended the season of the Nest and also lengthened the kitchen's operating hours this summer and hope that these actions prove to be worthwhile and satisfying. Additionally, we will continue to focus on value for our members.
Social Events
Marked improvement in how our social events are managed was noted, with frequent requests for more casual, fun/active events. It was clear that maintaining reasonable costs for most events was favored and that more (with regards to the number of events, menu offerings and entertainment) is not always more.
Golf and Tennis
Both golf and tennis comments were incredibly positive on all fronts including, but not limited to, staff friendliness and service, programs and court and course conditions! Improvement was found in nearly all areas with very favorable remarks on our staff professionals.
Equestrian
Our Equestrian Center, though popular as an attraction, was found to be utilized little by our members with price/value being a key contributor.
Beach Club
High marks on our Beach Club facility and improvement from past surveys was noted, particularly with the performance of our managers and staff members. The additional umbrellas added at the beginning of the season seem to be appreciated, but the desire for more shade continues to be a common request.
We appreciate the input and participation of all of those who completed the survey and hope you take the time to click HERE for the full detail of the results.

JOINT SURVEY RESULTS
The 2010 Joint SIC/SIPOA Survey provided tremendously valuable feedback with regards to our club operations. Overall the results were very positive, as significant improvement was seen in almost every aspect and a general opinion that the Club is moving in the right direction in terms of value and management. Some of the primary themes were...
Dining
Overall significant improvement and favorable remarks on the Pelican's Nest and Island House dining were received with improvements noted in our menu selections, staff friendliness, management's ability to handle issues in a timely manner and our dining facilities being a top choice when deciding where to eat. The reservations system at Pelican's Nest in late 2009 did not meet your needs, as was reflected in many comments, and a desire for longer hours and lengthened season were prominent as well. We have extended the season of the Nest and also lengthened the kitchen's operating hours this summer and hope that these actions prove to be worthwhile and satisfying. Additionally, we will continue to focus on value for our members.
Social Events
Marked improvement in how our social events are managed was noted, with frequent requests for more casual, fun/active events. It was clear that maintaining reasonable costs for most events was favored and that more (with regards to the number of events, menu offerings and entertainment) is not always more.
Golf and Tennis
Both golf and tennis comments were incredibly positive on all fronts including, but not limited to, staff friendliness and service, programs and court and course conditions! Improvement was found in nearly all areas with very favorable remarks on our staff professionals.
Equestrian
Our Equestrian Center, though popular as an attraction, was found to be utilized little by our members with price/value being a key contributor.
Beach Club
High marks on our Beach Club facility and improvement from past surveys was noted, particularly with the performance of our managers and staff members. The additional umbrellas added at the beginning of the season seem to be appreciated, but the desire for more shade continues to be a common request.
We appreciate the input and participation of all of those who completed the survey and hope you take the time to click HERE for the full detail of the results.
