Hi, this email is to follow-up on my conversation with Jay. My father,
Robert (Bob) Grogan, purchased a two-year membership for the years 2020 and
2021 and paid $1,670. Unfortunately, he passed away on March 20, 2021, and
his wife would like to a have a refund processed for the 2021 dues that were
prepaid - $835. Her name is Eileen P. Grogan, and her address is XXXXXXXXXXXXXX. Please let me know
if you need any additional information. As I mentioned (to Jay), my father had fond memories of his
membership with Captain's, most notably his hole -in -one last year. Thank
you very much for your time and assistance.
Regards,
Bill Grogan

Minutes of April 13, 2021
Bftws mv-
Commissioners Present: Anne O'Connell (Chair), Andrea Johnson (Vice -Chair), Carl Blanchard, John
Kissida, Wyn Morton, Jeff Odell, and David Valcourt
Others Present: Jay Packett, Director of Operations, Colin Walsh, Golf Course Superintendent, Rob
Harris (CCMGA), Donna Potts (9 -Hole Women's Assn), Sarah Robinson (18 -Hole Women's Association)
and Bill Meehan (Finance Committee Liaison)
THIS MEETING WAS HELD REMOTELY WITH AUDIO AND VIDEO RECORDED. The meeting
may be viewed at: http://video.brewster-ma.gov/CablecastPublicSite/show/5359?channel=l
Anne O'Connell called the meeting to order at 4:00 pm after reading remote meeting guidelines and
procedures.
Superintendent's Report:
Colin Walsh reported aeration has been done on both courses. There were no major issues. Brian
Vinchesi helped to do the pressure testing on the irrigation system and recommends a slight
increase in pressure. He believes wells are on borrowed time and will have suggestions in his
report. Colin Walsh talked about the sink holes that are under construction. Winter clean-up
continues. Clubhouse grounds will be tidied; clean-up will continue on traps. Mowing will be
started soon. The course will be in good shape in another two to three weeks. Dave Valcourt
remarked that new employees should be aware of OSHA standards. Colin Walsh is looking into
on-line OSHA training.
Director's report:
• Jay Packett said a number of members spoke to him about the cleanliness and playability of the
course after aerification. Kudos to Colin Walsh and his staff. Regarding the financials, the current
numbers have been corrected. The Captains continues to set records for the month of March.
Membership numbers have increased: 70 non-residents, 47 Brewster residents. There were just over
3,600 rounds played. John Kissida asked how, with the range closed for the month of March, there
was still almost $2800 in revenue. Jay Packett reported that the range opened on March 27 and has
been extremely busy. Carl Blanchard asked if the maintenance building study needed to be
1
submitted for next year's capital budget. Jay Packett anticipates speaking with Mimi Bernardo
about this and hopes to have answers by the next commission meeting. Anne O'Connell stated
traditionally golf course capital items come before the fall town meeting. Jay Packett thinks that
capital items can be included in the spring town meeting if presented by the cut-off date. Bill
Meehan agreed, indicating the cut-off date for the spring town meeting has already passed and the
focus should now be on presentations for the fall town meeting. Discussion followed.
• Jay Packett advised the Gannon Memorial Tournament has been cancelled for 2021 and Monday,
June 13, 2022 has been requested as a replacement date; he feels The Captains should support this
event. The Retired Men's Club of Cape Cod has asked for May 3 for an 8:30 shotgun for 60
players; this event would be scheduled as a modified shotgun so the course would not be closed for
the rest of the day. The memorial tournament for Judy McCarthy has been approved for June 17.
Suzanne Kenny would like a back-up date of September 30 because of Covid protocols. The Cape
Cod Chapter of the Golf Course Superintendents' Association would like to host their annual event
at The Captains on June 23; Jay Packett would like approval for this event.
• A motion was made by Jeff Odell, seconded by Wyn Morton to approve the Retired Men's Club
Tournament for May 3, the Cape Cod Chapter of the Golf Course Superintendents' Association
event for June 23 and the back-up date of September 23 for the Judy McCarthy Tournament.
Motion passed unanimously.
• A motion was made by Jeff Odell, seconded by Andrea Johnson to approve the Gannon Memorial
Tournament for June 13, 2022 and authorize Jay Packett to amend the date if circumstances require
later. Motion passed unanimously.
• There were no emails in the Golf Commission email box.
Strategic Planning Updates:
Andrea Johnson and Anne O'Connell have been walking the golf course looking at possible settings
for the forward tees and ended up with a golf course of 4,300 yards. John Kissida spoke about the
impact of the tees on the cart paths.
Carl Blanchard asked to be brought up on the HVAC system in the restaurant and the sink holes in
the cart barn. The sink hole project is in the capital submittals for next year's budget and should be
submitted at the fall town meeting. Jay Packett reported he has had a response from the company
that will be doing the HVAC work. There is a 2- to 3 -week lead time, and he expects to hear
tomorrow as to when the project should be started. Regarding the cart barn, the project is scheduled
for the fall town meeting. Rob Campbell from the maintenance department suggested the cart barn
project might be started in-house, making a temporary repair to level the area. Colin Walsh thinks
this is a good possibility. John Kissida reminded of the timing of the paving plants and suggested
talking to the DPW.
Dave Valcourt gave kudos to the grounds crews for their recent work and asked if the NGF is
coming through with prioritizing equipment requirements for the 10 -year plan. OSHA violations
need to be prioritized. He again suggested the commission calendar include a timeline for pending
projects. Carl Blanchard discussed possibilities for this calendar as suggested by Rob Harris. Bill
Meehan discussed the scheduling and timing for the fall town meeting and suggested Jay Packett
discuss the process with Mimi Bernardo. Discussion followed regarding the commission calendar,
its use, the items to be included and whether it should be for internal use and not on the website.
Jeff Odell spoke about the solar projects and lobbying Eversource for the hook-ups. Lighting has
been added at no additional cost near the service building. There is some equipment still on the
premises. He discussed upcoming staging and the availability of the parking lot. There is now a
full-time foreman on the job. Jay Packett acknowledged the company is 97% finished. Parking
will be available section by section as work proceeds.
John Kissida reported he has met with Colin Walsh regarding landscaping and planting.

Wyn Morton reported on member and non-member communications. Kudos to Jay Packett and
Freemans Grill for recent emails. Publicity is new and impressive. Thanks to the commissioners
for sending in their biographies and photos; the page will materialize when all the commissioners'
information is available. The website pictures and videos are being upgraded. Longer range
marketing projects are in process. John Kissida asked if there will be another "state of the
Captains." Jay Packett discussed transparency of communications and possibly creating a digital
"Captains Log." Discussion followed.
Update on NGF Consultant Study:
• Jay Packett reported on the comments and questions email sent to the NGF. Thanks to Andrea
Johnson for her work in this effort. He anticipates hearing from them in another three to four
weeks.
Questions and comments from Associations and liaisons:
• Sarah Robinson asked if moving the forward tees would remove the red tees. Andrea Johnson
answered there would be another set of tees. Rob Harris updated the CCMGA events. There are
more members than last year, and a record amount of money has been raised for the scholarship
fund. Jay Packett commented on issues involved with the new forward tees which he hopes to
revisit in the fall.
Preliminary Discussion CPC Funding Request:
John Kissida reported on the NGF looking at funding through the CPA in Massachusetts and
commented on the handout that Anne O'Connell provided talking about Brewster and the
Brewster by-law which puts 50% to open space, 10% to housing, 10% to historic preservation
and 30% to recreation and to be determined. Peter Lombardi reports per town counsel that golf
courses are eligible for funding under the CPA. John Kissida indicated there are numerous
examples of golf courses receiving money through the CPA, and he listed the golf courses and the
amounts they received and possible uses. In 2009 the inspector general talked about municipally
operated golf courses as a public benefit and recreation resource. Peter Lombardi suggested if the
golf commission is interested in pursuing this, they become part of the five-year planning process
for potential funding associated with CPA. Discussion followed as to various community
programs connected to The Captains. Jeff Odell would like to see this program tied to
environmental preservation related to water usage, i.e. the irrigation system and things of that
nature rather than just as a funding source for golf. Bill Meehan suggested this might not be well-
received by the community. John Kissida stated he feels with all the programs in which Captains
is involved, the golf course makes a considerable contribution to the community and would like
the commission to agree to becoming part of the planning process. Wyn Morton would like to see
an upcoming article regarding the advantages of the golf course to the town. The NGF will be
asked for their thoughts on this.
Review and approve minutes:
• A motion was made by Andrea Johnson, seconded by Wyn Morton to approve the minutes of the
meeting of March 9 as written.
• John Kissida said under the director's report there was information on the monitoring budget, and
since then Jay Packett has come up with additional information, the question being how to handle
this addition. Ann O'Connell will research the possibility of an amendment being added to the
3
minutes.
• Motion passed unanimously.
• A motion was made by Jeff Odell, seconded by John Kissida to approve the minutes of the
meeting of March 23 as written. Motion passed unanimously.

THIS MEETING WAS HELD REMOTELY WITH AUDIO AND VIDEO RECORDED. The meeting
may be viewed at: http://video.brewster-ma.gov/CablecastPublicSite/show/5397?channel=l
Anne O'Connell called the meeting to order at 4:00 pm after reading remote meeting guidelines and
procedures.
Director's Report:
Jay Packett reported on the recent update regarding COVID restrictions regarding the golf course
grounds and carts. Face coverings are mandatory in all areas of the golf course until April 30.
Carts are being sanitized. The water stations have not been put out; sanitation will be difficult.
Bunker rakes are back in the bunkers. Shot -gun tournaments will be held respecting social
distancing. The restaurant is open with all tables six feet apart, six people per table. Restaurant
guidelines will be upgraded on May 29. Tee times were not addressed by Governor Baker. Anne
O'Connell reported golf facility specific guidelines are being withdrawn as of April 30 according
to information she received from the Mass Golf Association. Discussion followed. Wyn Morton
expressed his concern regarding water stations and would like to discuss this at a future meeting.
Course Operations Questions and Concerns:
• Colin Walsh reported maintenance is at full staff and practicing social distancing: one person per
cart, face coverings are worn indoors. The staff continues to work at full capacity. Weekend
work begins on May 1.
Impact of growth in membership in 2021 on golf course operations including, but not limited to
FY22 budget, tee time allocation, association block times, staffing, 2022 rates, number of members:
The process of tee time allocations will be discussed at the first meeting in June. Jay Packett
reported a break even point of $42 per round and reported a projected $500,000 loss over a 7 -
week period going to 20%. The formula in place should be honored, but the commission needs to
be aware of these possibilities. The golf course is currently solvent. Future capital projects need
to be done so that The Captains maintains its reputation of being the premiere 36 -hole golf
facility on Cape Cod. A balance needs to be in place making the members' experience a happy
one and providing the revenue necessary to allow future projects to go forward. Membership for
April up to today is $214,000. Jeff Odell asked for a total membership number: it is 972 as of
April 22. He commented on the formula and spoke about the point system. Wynn Morton
suggested explaining the Chelsea system on the website. Anne O'Connell said in reviewing
emails received she feels there is a lot of false information out there. Discussion followed
regarding the effectiveness of the current Chelsea system and providing educational feedback to
the membership. John Kissada thanked Rob Harris for his explanation of the tee time system and
would like a review of the quantity of memberships, noting the by-laws should be reviewed and
asking if the Chelsea system is providing the proper balance in play time, i.e. should extra times
on hold be made available earlier in the day to be booked. In answer to Rob Harris' question, Jeff
Odell said the number of non-resident members originally was capped at 100, then raised to 200.
No cap has been in place for at least ten years. Jay Packett explained the 200 cap on
memberships had never been reached and advised that after early resident members play 25
times, they are at the $42 per round figure. In answer to John Kissida's point about the on -hold
times, Jay Packett will have Chelsea adjust the times earlier if the commission so desires. Jeff
Odell explained the history of advanced bookings and the on -hold times. Carl Blanchard spoke
of the financial issues involved in balancing revenues vs. expenses, noting Rob Harris' report
regarding golf course costs and efforts to keep membership fees down and employee wages
stable. Rob Harris explained his report was a fact -only of past tee times. The formula was
developed when golf membership and golf was in decline. Discussion followed regarding capital
goals and membership fees collected so far this year. Anne O'Connell asked whether changing
the tee time cut-off would adversely affect guest play significantly. Jay Packett doesn't think it
will make a difference.
• A motion was made by John Kissida, seconded by Wyn Morton, to change the time that members
can get a free tee time the day before play from 8 p.m. to 4 p.m. Motion passed unanimously.
Anne O'Connell suggested the opportunity in choosing not to increase rates this year was missed
in order to thank the membership for its loyalty and support. She mentioned the differential
between morning rates and early rates. This matter will be discussed at another time. Wyn
Morton suggested tweaking the tee time system. John Kissida agreed and suggested a public
information guide be sent to the membership advising what their membership buys. Dave
Valcourt re-emphasized communications with the membership and suggested adjusting fees. Jay
Packett spoke about fee adjustments and benefits to the members. Anne O'Connell asked for
opinions on limiting non-resident members and suggested prior budget reports be reviewed.
Discussion followed. Anne O'Connell said additional insight on these issues is expected from the
next draft of the NGF report regarding tee time allocations and possibly membership rates.
Discussion followed.
• Anne O'Connell assured the association representatives that their blocks are safe and indicated
2
unused tee times will be used by the golf course. She asked anyone with suggestions regarding
communications be sent to Wyn Morton so that they may be addressed in a timely manner.
Public comment:
• None.
Topics the Chair did not reasonably anticipate:
• None.
Future agenda items and meetings (5/11, 5/18):
• 5/11 -Regular business meeting
• 5/18 — Irrigation study
• Possible draft from the National Golf Foundation
A motion was made by Wyn Morton, seconded by Jeff Odell to adjourn the meeting. Motion passed
unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 5:40 p.m.
