GOLF COURSE
1 Golf Club
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. Golf Course management is responsible for clubhouse building
maintenance, golf course maintenance, utilities management, equipment
maintenance, project management, purchasing, budgeting, marketing,
continuing education and overseeing contract management which includes:
1)Golf Professional who owns the carts and proshop, 2)Restaurant which
includes food and beverage. Our goal is to have 13 seasonal staff -7
working from May to mid -October. This season we struggled to get enough
staff. Staff is made-up of the Golf Course Manager, golf professionals, 2 full-
time staff and 13 seasonal staff when 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. We employed 2 seasonal staff part time through the
winter to help with snow removal on cart paths and allow full time staff to take

Looking Forward
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.

2019 Accomplishments
• Added a new service bay, grinding
room, and an office to the mainte-
nance building
• Removed 45 dead trees from the golf
course. Chipped all the branches and
piled them for use around the course.
The good logs we saved for future
construction projects. The wood not
as good we cut up and use for fire
wood to heat the shop and club
house.
• Hauled our burn pile off to compost
instead of burning.
• Crack sealed cart paths. Replaced a
section of cart path with a Porous
Pave product to demo.
• Promoted McCall Golf Course and
the area at 3 trade shows
• Milled logs removed from the golf
course into siding for the expansion
of the maintenance building.
• Banyans and golf course staff built a
tent area with donated pavers for out-
side functions.
• Council approved two equipment
leases that replaced 20 year old
equipment. This made us more effi-
cient and improved playability.
• Installed parts inventory/equipment
management program and organized
new parts bins.

*Rounds and Revenue were down this year compared to last year but still
above the 5 year average. Part of this is due to the weather in October
and May and the other to competitive rates. Tournaments have been full
with a waiting list and the hotels are full on tournament weekends. Our
marketing efforts are helping us reach new golfers. *Rounds numbers
have been adjusted to show tournament rounds that were not broken out
in years past and previously in Guest fees. Member/Season Pass Holders
rounds were down because of the weather both at the start and finish of
the golf season and a lower number of season pass holders.

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 situ-
ations where a given fund pro-
vides services primarily to cus-
tomers outside the financial
reporting entity —such as the citi-
zens of McCall. Enterprise funds
are mandated when legal re-
quirements or management poli-
cy require the cost of providing
services by 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.*
*Statistics are derived from State of
Idaho Department of Commerce.

What's Next: Projects & Challenges
Environmental Stewardship
Audubon Certification: This certification is a complete sustainable site assessment
and environmental plan for the golf course that we have actively been pursuing 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. 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 Depart-
ment of Agriculture's Chemical Container Recycle program. We milled lumber for the
maintenance building expansion out of logs that came off of the golf course. We recy-
cled one of the main support beams for the maintenance building from Albertson's
when they remodeled (shown in brown above). Hauled our bum pile to the transfer site
to grind with other wood debris instead of burning.
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 transplanted over 50 trees
this past year.
Marketing Efforts
We had new rack cards made that
have our rates on the back and infor-
mation about us on the front. We ran
ads in Heartland Living, Visit McCall,
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.

Long -Range Financial Planning
• The Golf Course continues to market through advertising and 3 golf shows. We work
with Southwest Idaho Tourism Association (SWITA) and the Chamber to maximize
our funds
• The McCall Men's Golf Club has taken over the Tee Signs and the Advertising on
them with which they will support projects in the future with a match in funding.
• Started an Asset Management/Master plan for the golf course to be finalized in July
2020 which will identify where we are and what we will need into the future
