It's extremely rare to get second chance to make a first impression. In fact, it doesn't happen very often and we've got that opportunity now. What's wonderful about Osprey Meadows coming back today is we haven't had to compromise on any of the original features. One of the reasons we picked Robert Trent Jones is that's what he likes to do is try and just build the golf course right into whatever scenery, whatever backdrop you have. Incorporating the mountain, Meadow and lake here as was the main goal. And this income, seeing all the tamarack is it gives you everything you want out here. The golf course that we did originally was intended to be natural and among the ponderosa Pines and the tamaracks and other Evergreen vegetation. And this is a real forest. So it's wild. There's a wilderness element as you wander through the course. And of course you have this and views not only the mountain in One Direction, but the Big Lake and the other direction. So you really feel you're in nature and also gives you a chance to have 18 little, little different puzzles. So when we came back. Wanted to just made it more accessible and fun. One of the changes I'm most proud of that we did this time around was whole number one and we wanted to let you see Lake Cascade right off the bat. We want to give people the ability. They had a great shot. Golf architects, certain kinds of places they liked to work. I love the mountains of golf to me is not a two-dimensional sport. I like the third dimension to more complex design, more dramatic, more opportunity for great vistas and that's what made my heartbeat. Girl, little quicker. The reopening of Osprey Meadows has been a very special milestone that we've been pursuing. And the reason is just because it's so beautiful. You play in the mountain, the meadows and by the lake. There's no other place like it. I think part of the legacy of this resort and this golf course in general is just grit and determination, perseverance. The resort's been through a lot. The golf course shut down for 10 years and now we've brought it back and I want this valley, I want the club members just to see how amazing this golf course is and just showcase it to everybody. Just come play O what's really cool about this place is it is the only mountain lake and golf resort in the country that I'm aware of. You have world class water sports, you have world class golf, you have a resort that has these fantastic mountains right over here, and you also have this beautiful view of the lake and that is a really rare thing now the original developers. You know, really builted where nature told him to, which was at the intersection of the mountains. That matters on the lake. You know, to this day, you know, Tamarack is America's only lake, golf and ski resort. Having the three is amazing. Having the three with the quality that they each have is just truly, truly remarkable. And it's what brings most folks to Tamarac. The feedback from folks, you know, coming off the course over the last week has been nothing short of spectacular. So as the family thinks about what we want to accomplish here and what we want to create. It's really about the experience for the families. So we're so focused on having opportunities for all different kinds of families, being an inclusive resort that people want to be at, people want to spend time at and create those lasting memories, and we just want other families to be able to experience that. We have the right team members to look at the course as it is, to make the changes so that we can prepare for the future. We have the right mix with the Navarro family and their commitment to make the investments into it and the right team. The right time to bring this incredible course back and make it what it is. We'll be here from 5:00 AM to 5:00 PM every day. The best part is we all get along. Everybody's willing to help out. All of those things put the future of Osprey Meadows in a very favorable position to excel and succeed, not just within this resort community and the club community, but outside of Tamarack as well. I can't envision a future of Tamarack without Osprey Meadows.
