Kimberley Ladies Results from EKATC

Subject: Temporary Closure of RAVEN’S ROOST on Friday August 13th

After consulting with both Interior Health (IH) and WorkSafeBC, we made the decision to voluntarily close the Raven’s Roost yesterday (Friday, August 13) due to a positive COVID-19 test result by a restaurant staff member.  Out of an abundance of caution, we spent the day engaged in deep cleaning of our restaurant facility.  Unfortunately, this process also led to postponement of the Rock the Roost event on Friday evening. 

IMPORTANT:  the pro shop remains open and golf course operations are otherwise continuing as normal.

The Raven’s Roost is open as of  9:00 AM today (Saturday) unless something changes with regard to the guidance being provided by IH. 

For the next two weeks our staff will all self-monitor and all staff will wear masks—again, out of an abundance of caution and in support of providing a safe work environment and guest experience. 

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

If you have any questions or concerns, please email joanna@purcell.golf.

We are in ongoing discussions with Purcell regarding their latest proposal for replacement holes and future development of the golf course. The discussions have taken much longer than anticipated and the Board apologizes for the lack of communication on progress.   

Our respective lawyers have been working on a documented agreement that we will be bringing to the membership once it is available. The document will include details of the development plan, agreed upon time lines for the construction phase and rates over the transition period. Both our legacy and new members are considered under the proposal.

Once a documented agreement is received we will be sharing it with the membership and we will outline the next steps in the process. 

 Again we apologize, but we wanted to ensure that complete details are made available to the membership.  

Attached is a description of the current plan from Duncan McLeod, President of Purcell.
