Sharpening Event

Sharper Edges - Knife Sharpening Event

The Holiday cooking season is upon us, so we are offering y'all an opportunity to have happy, sharper edges in your kitchens for holiday food prep...

EVENT DATE:
Monday, November 22nd
8:00 am to 11:00 am drop off
After 11:00 am, Tom will be concentrating on sharpening in order to give you Sharper Edges.
Tom will text or call you when your items are complete and you will return to pick them up later the same day.
Please bring items wrapped in a towel or market bag so Tom can easily keep things organized.

An RSVP is required to bring your items, and the RSVP is limited to 25 residents. There is a maximum of 5 items per RSVP, with a minimum of 3 items, scissors can be added to the 5 items.

Items sharpened:

Knives, scissors/shears (both household/fabric/industrial and stylist/groomers), and garden implements (clippers, loppers, etc.). Tom will take scissors with him to sharpen and Tom will deliver/return them the next day.

Pricing:

Pricing is variable as Tom will need to view the items. However, here is a general idea:

Kitchen knives average about $15 each, though it varies with length, condition of edge, broken points, etc.

Garden clippers and loppers range from $5-$20+, again dependent upon the condition of edge, length, etc.

Household scissors approx. $10+, stylist/grooming shears $35+.

Bring your items and Tom will assess them.

Cash, Checks, and Credit Cards are accepted - Cash is king. 😀

Dull edges are dangerous, - you have to work too hard to cut, and may slip - ouch! So, we want you to have happy, sharper edges.

Tom's background information:

Tom has been hand sharpening his own, and family/friend's, knives since he was 13 years old. He was, and is, really quite good at it, now he has advanced to a nifty belt sharpening system, and he is at a whole new level! He has been doing Sharpening Events and Farmers Markets on Hilton Head Island, Bluffton, and Port Royal since last summer and getting great results, and many repeat customers.

Monthly Message from the Board.

Monthly Message to Spanish Wells Club Members from the President:

The Board met on September 20th.

I am happy to report that our membership numbers are good and remaining steady.

A special thanks to the Tennis Committee, tennis members, and our staff for a
great event on the 17th, sponsoring the first round of the Pro League.
In the works—resurfacing of the Tennis Courts scheduled to begin mid-October.

The construction of “The Deck” is on track to start the first week of October. Pump
and Drainage issues on the course are still a work in progress, almost done.

An effort to upgrade the men’s room in the Clubhouse is underway.

More great plans are in the works.

Kathy Joyce,
President Spanish Wells Club

Monthly Message from the President

July 2021

The Board met Monday, July 19th. The membership numbers are up thanks to all our staff’s hard work.

We did have some issues from the storm, all of the debris has been cleared, and the tree by the pool is scheduled to be removed.

There is fencing on the Tennis courts needing repair; some of the windscreens are down for now, we are awaiting a vendor to do the repairs.

Work is progressing on the irrigation pumps on holes 1, 4, and 5.

If all goes as planned, work on the Deck will be started in October. Once we have a drawing/rendering for the Deck, Bill will post it in the Clubhouse.

Save that date: Friday, October 22nd, Third Annual Salty Dog Sunset Cruise.

Kathy Joyce ~President of Spanish Wells Club

Fairways are looking good after our wall to wall fertilization we applied in June.

The pump on number 1 is scheduled to be installed on July 7th.
