Golf Committee minutes March 2010

Golf Committee Minutes for March, 2010

Committee members present for the March 3, 2010 meeting were Ron Perisho, Betts Winsor (Board Liaison), Betty Locke, Jack Watson, Rush Chappell, Betty Buff, Jim Ryan, and Bill Donnelly. Todd Belz and Ed Gilbreath were present. A quorum was present.

A motion was made and seconded to approve the February minutes.

Standing Committee Reports:

Firewood: Jim Ryan reported that there is about $500 in the account. We are behind in orders. We have committed to 3 cords plus 2 or 3 special orders if we can accommodate them.

Adopt-a-Hole Program: Ron had nothing to report.

Events: There was little to report as no one is presently chairing this subcommittee. The Guys and Dolls tournament will be decided on at the next meeting. We need some sort of compromise on the requirement for a GHIN index to have the tournament. The Swap and Shop will be held in conjunction with the Spring Fling on May 1st.

Course Superintendent Report: Pre-emergent work is completed. The new traps on 18 are finished. There are a few trees left to remove on #9 and then we will be ready for cart path repair. Cart paths are deteriorating especially with the cold winter. The culvert on #17 should be done by next month. Trees need to be removed on #1 and #4. The trap on #16 was discussed. It will be retained as a trap and not filled in (too expensive). The cart path on #5 needs work. Eddie needs volunteer help. He will be losing one staff member due to budget restraints.

General Manager and Golf Pro Report: The golf shop will move into the same building as the POA office as soon as the carpeting is replaced. GHIN fees went up to $20.00. The bid on bridge replacement on #4 was $8,000 from Bill Milligan. The Board will most likely approve that expenditure.

Old Business: Jim Ryan has some old out-of-bounds stakes he is working on.

New Business: There was a discussion of golf finances. Ron is conducting a workshop on golf revenues starting tomorrow and additional meetings will be held in March and early April. Saturday morning tournaments were discussed. We have 6 booked already this year and this cuts out member play. Todd also explained how we need to be careful in booking tournaments as they can actually cause us to loss more potential income than they generate. We also discussed using tee times on Tuesday for ladies play, during MGA events and on Fridays for the Scotch Scramble. No decisions were made but this and tournament play will be discussed by the Golf Revenue Working Group in conjunction with the Golf Committee before the next Golf Committee meeting.
A motion was made, seconded and approved to close the meeting at 10:15 am.

Respectfully Submitted,
(s) Ronald J Perisho
