WHATWE OFFER • Strategic Planning and Implementation • Facility Planning and Funding Programs • Membership Surveys and Research • Operations Consulting • HOA Community Consulting 2.5 BILLION RAI SED FROM THE CHAIRMAN Dear Club Executive: What a great CMAA Conference in San Diego last month as after two years, we were finally able to get together and enjoy one another’s company. It was so good to see everyone and talk about all the exciting things happening in the club industry. We at McMahon enjoyed hosting our Club of The Future early work shop with our Club Leadership Alliance (CLA) partners Kopplin Kuebler and Wallace and Club Benchmarking. We also enjoyed participating in the Club Wellness/Fitness/Spa facility session with Jeff Morgan and the panel as these club wellness offerings are the most in demand today. By the way, I want to congratulate Jeff Morgan, FASAE, CAE, and his CMAA team for a great conference as it was just well done. For the Excellence In Club Management® Award program, this is a year of change as the Awards programwill move to the National Club Association Annual Conference in Charleston on May 16, 2022. We are excited about this change and look forward to a very special event this year. The Awards Selection Committee was able to meet in San Diego to plan for the future. At McMahon, this past year has been one of change as new team members have come on board. Kevin Carroll, CCM, ECM, CCE, CAM and Chris Coulter, CCM, ECM have been growing our club consulting and facility planning business. Bill McMahon, Jr. is head of the McMahon Survey Division, and the Club Leadership Alliance (CLA) with our two partners is expanding its role to help clubs in many ways. The biggest need we are seeing for our clubs today with the building boom is to have an overall facility master plan. The master plan with its initial strategic planning by the board must guide the many facility improvements that clubs are making. Without the overall master plan, major facility mistakes happen and millions of dollars can be wasted. Now for what is really special. Frank Vain has been awarded the BoardRoom magazine’s Lifetime Achievement Award for his service to the club industry. Frank has served over a thousand clubs with his position at McMahon Group and his dedication to the industry with his past presidency role at the National Club Association. He is a born leader, a great friend and one very fine golfer. Congratulations Frank! In closing we welcome Joe Krenn, Crystal Thomas and Patrick King to the awards committee as we wish Tom Spellman the best of luck in his retirement. We are excited about the prospects in the club industry as membership numbers are growing, private clubs have never been in more demand and the real value of clubs with their ability to bring members together are being realized. If your club needs any help or we can help you in your position at your club, please call us at McMahon. We are always at your service.
