Eric's Report: For the first half of March,we had three full time and two part time workers. One
seasonal worker was laid off but will be returning later in the spring.The other part timer will be
done after the first week in April.The greens still have a deep snow cover,but with the recent warm
weather and rain,we are finally seeing some melting. Great progress was made on the shop
expansion. Electricians are scheduled to come next week.We hope to finish the remaining work
before all the snow is gone.We cleared snow from the hitting area of the driving range for the high
school golf team. Snow was also removed from the tent area.Toro will be here next week to help us
learn how to best use our new equipment.We auctioned off some of our old equipment we no longer
need. Dog poop continues to be a problem.We will be placing ads for summer workers. It might be a
tough year when it comes to hiring.Working on plans for a roofed structure over the tent area.
Allan's Report: Tournaments are filling up fast.There has been some response to our ad for an
assistant pro,but no hiring at this time.
Monthly Topic: "Review of Superintendent's Annual Budget and Work Plans." Eric gave members a
copy of his budget,which showed revenues and expenditures for the 5 months ending in February.
He explained that most expenditures were bases on projected income,and therefore, changes may be
inevitable. He does plan to do patch and seal work on cart paths this spring. Our irrigation system
finally looks good. He is still trying to decide whether to do the parking lot reseal this year or wait
until 2020. He will be bringing his budget back to the committee later for further discussion.
Old Business: Eric has received a set of plans for the new restroom,and he will be applying for LOT
funds. Eric is still researching what it would cost to place a camera near Cedar#1. He is also
investigating camera installation around the clubhouse area. Eric would like to use Capital Funds and
replace the front clubhouse stairs with a curved ramp.
New Business: Eric proposed moving the starting time for May's meeting to 3:00 p.m.There were no
objections from committee members. Following our regular meeting,there will be a rules clinic.
Allan said he has been approached by sponsors of the Hawkins Tourney.They have requested Friday,
July 5,as a date.Allan would prefer they play Wednesday,July 3,and he wanted the committee's
opinion before he got back with the tourneys reps.The committee agreed that Wednesday was a
better option.
May's topic will be to "Review the Marketing Plan."
The next meeting is May 8, at the new time of 3:00 p.m.
Meeting was adjourned.
