New Business:
Snack Shack Review of Location
Jim, Pat Crandel and Attorney Steve Millemann
The Crandels' were informed when they purchased their house by the 7th green that the
snack shack was temporary and that it would be moved at some point in time. The
individual who told them this was not identified during this meeting. The Crandels'
would like to see the snack shack moved to the 6th tee area.
Rick commented that it is temporary building and the committee has been
looking at other areas for a permanent location that would allow enough space to build
bathrooms, and make it a permanent building. Rick also mentioned that this would take
considerable funding and those funds are not there at this time.
Mary said she would check with LonaBell Larson on possibly moving the snack
shack on to her side of the property, because she didn't think LonaBell would object to
it.
Cross Country Skiing
Bill McMurray informed the committee of the recent work that had been going on to get
some groomed cross country ski trails established on the golf course. He said that the
majority of these trails will be on the Cedar nine with a training area set up on the
driving range.
The committee approved of this and was wondering if the golf course would see
any funds from this to pay for any possible damages. They were also concerned about
the greens and Mike Combs informed them that he and his staff would be putting up
rope and rebar around the greens and that there shouldn't be a problem.
Mission Statement Review
The committee went over the mission statement and made a few changes(see
attached). Max made a motion to recommendation to City Council to change the
mission statement to the attached mission statement. Jeff 2nd the motion and it carried
unanimously.
Old Business:
Year End Review
Without any true financial statement the committee could not review the year end
report. Mike said that he has not received any sort of year end statement.
Irrigation Status
Mike informed the committee that the fall progress was not we had hoped for and that
the early winter patterns and wetness of the course Turf Sprinkler felt that they may
cause more damage to the course. Mike informed the committee that this could take
us into late August before we see completion of this project. He also commented that
this project should have started in the spring when the course was already torn up from
the other water project.
Staff Report:
Mike Combs
Mike informed the committee that he and his staff had cut down some trees on the golf
course that would allow more sun light into some areas. He also said that they have
added on to the 5th tee on Birch and that they were going to be adding on to the 2ndtee
on Aspen. Carl asked about the 8th tee on Cedar if it was going to expand and Mike
said he didn't want to and the committee supported Mike on that.
Mary Clemmer
Mary said she lost a couple of banquets this winter do to the size of the club house (to
small). She also mentioned that some food had to be wasted do to the early snow this
year but she was able to save some.
Carl Floss
Carl said that he had a good season and was going to hide all winter.
