2015ANNUAL REPORT
What We Do
Although we are a Municipal Golf Course, we operate as a Resort Golf
Course. Marketing is done in partnership with the other golf courses in the
area to bring people to McCall. We also advertise our Brand as McCall Golf
Club which is part of the Resort Marketing.
McCall Golf Club hosts the largest match play tournament in the northwest
every July. It is a week long event using all 27 holes. You can play golf all
day while enjoying abundant wild life, beautiful mountain views, and then
still be in the area to enjoy the rest of McCall. In the winter the golf course
becomes a park where you can snow shoe, walk your dog or sled on our
tubing hill.
Operations
The golf fund consists of all operations associated with the McCall Golf
Course. These operations are: contract management (Golf Professional,
Food & Beverage), clubhouse building maintenance, golf course
maintenance, utilities management, equipment maintenance, project
management, purchasing, budgeting, marketing and continuing education.
Our goal is to have 13 seasonal staff -7 working from May to mid -October.
This season we struggled to find seasonal employees early but did end up
getting a great staff. Staff is made-up of the Golf Course Manager, golf
professionals, 2 full-time staff and 13 seasonal staff and we were fully
staffed. Of the 13 seasonal staff 3 of them work part time. The Club House
employs up to 40 during the golf season.

Mission
To create quality playing
conditions for the locals &
visiting players and to make
our course a must play at
reasonable rates. As a
Municipal Golf Course it is
our intent to make golf as
affordable as possible while
still maintaining course
quality. While keeping with
golf course integrity, we
also provide our facilities for
the non -golfing community.
Vision
To keep up with trends and
changes in the golf world
and continue our
commitment to excellence.

*Rounds and revenue over the past years has decreased from a high in FY09.
During this time, two new courses came on line in the area which took from the
number of players in McCall. Also the down turn in the economy was a huge con-
tributor. McCall still has the most play among the four courses in the area and
play was up. McCall used to host 35,000 rounds when there were only two
courses in the area. Now the area produces 50,000 rounds with five courses.
McCall hosts eight tournaments per year plus numerous corporate and private
events

Our Finances
Fiscal Year 2015
What are the costs?
The costs for servicing the citi-
zens are paid through an enter-
prise fund which is a fund that
reports an activity (Golf) for
which a fee is charged to exter-
nal users for goods or services.
Enterprise funds are used in
situations where a given fund
provides services primarily to
customers outside the financial
reporting entity —such as the citi-
zens of McCall. Enterprise funds
are mandated when legal re-
quirements or management pol-
icy require the cost of providing
services recovered through fees
and charges.
The Economic
Impact of the Golf
Course on the City
Twelve additional jobs were cre-
ated in the community as a result
of revenue generated through
the golf course. Operations con-
tributed to the community an ad-
ditional $0.48 for every dollar
spent at the course, resulting in
the creation of .85 jobs else-
where within Idaho.* ell

Idaho Department of Commerce.

Looking Forward
What's Next: Projects & Challenges
Environmental Stewardship
Audubon Certification: This certification is a complete sustainable site assess-
ment and environmental plan for the golf course that we have actively been pur-
suing to achieve from 2009 onwards.
Community Outreach: We have participated with the McCall Middle & High
School science classes on their water study. Their findings included that indicated
the water coming out of the golf course was cleaner than a stream on the west
side of the lake.
Recycle project: We sort all of the aluminum cans out of the golf course trash
and recycle them. We also recycle any scrap metal as well. Our used oil is given
to the Public Works department to burn in their shop heater. We have a cardboard
container at the club house for recycle. The McCall Golf Course also participates
in the Idaho Department of Agriculture's Chemical Container Recycle program.
Tree program: We will continue thin and limb trees around the greens and tees
to make the turf healthier and to save chemical inputs. We will continue to replant
new 2ft-3ft trees in the areas that trees have been taken out. We have also
planted 154 8ft-12ft trees as a barrier at the end of the driving range and 10 8ft-
10ft trees on the golf course in the fall of 2010.
Marketing Efforts
Did a year long advertisement in the
Boise airport in conjunction with
SWITA. Had new rack cards made
that have our rates on the back and
information about us on the front. We
participated in the Idaho Statesman
golf card where we receive 8 quarter -
page ads in trade for our golf card
participation. Ads were also placed in
Heartland Living, the McCall area
map and Golf in the Northwest. We
attended golf shows in Boise, Spokane and Seattle. SWITA paid for booth space
and travel for Spokane and Seattle. We put a float in the winter carnival parade to
advertise the golf course which has supported the community for over 50 years.

work with Southwest Idaho Tourism Association (SWITA) to maximize our funds
