Staff Reports:
Allan:
1) Asked the committee to review a Rewards Program. Presentation was
made to the group. The committee was not comfortable with the
proposal.
2) Advertising Budget – the Golf Course has a $3k budget to spend on
marketing. $1.1k was spent to advertise through Golf South Idaho.
There is $1.9k left to spend this year. Alan asked the committee for
ideas on how to spend it. Rodger suggested we join the McCall
Chamber of Commerce for $250. Proposal would be the City pays ½
and the Golf course pays ½. Alan feels we need a larger marketing
budget for next year --- $10k. Committee agreed to support the
concept of a $10k budget.
3) 2-Man Best Ball – 118 players. Attendance down from last year, but
players were very complimentary of the course and the event.
4) Staffing Update:
a. Pro Shop is fully staffed.
b. Restaurant is also staffed up. The new breakfast cook is doing
well. Compliments from the Ladies Association.
Jerry:
1) No temporary greens. Crew is walk mowing the two greens that are a
little weaker.
2) Bill, who used to work for the Course and is now with the City, is
going to return to the Golf Course for grounds help. Jerry has
prepared a 90-day maintenance program that will guide the crew this
summer. Items covered include fertilization, verti-cut greens, and
other non-routine items.
Old Business:
1) Season Pass Contract – Discussion of the GAC involvement in the
contract was discussed. The City contract states the season Alan must
provide services is May 1st through September 30th. We will revisit
this issue when Hank joins us next month.
2) LOT Update – Rodger updated us on some immediate items that will
be funded:
a. Window covers
b. Carpet Mats
c. Carpet for Stairs
d. Foot Scrapers
These are expected to cost $6,250.
New Business:
1) 5-year plan for the Golf Course
a. What does the committee think the course should look like in 5
years? Committee should help to build this plan to present to
the City Council.
2) Other items from the floor
a. Dari asked if the cart paths could be striped with the distances.
Grant offered that the Men’s Association would volunteer a
work party to help with this.
