Attendees: Eric McCormick, Paul Stover, Ken Stearns, Allan Morrison (via phone), Roger Snodgrass,
Lynne Edwards -Swanson
Roger made a motion to approve the March minutes: Ken seconded the motion. The motion passed,
and the minutes were approved and signed.
Eric's Report: The snow is melting, but there are still about 18 inches on the greens. The crew that is
currently available will start on the 23rd. The new tee signs are being finalized. Only one tee sign is
still in need of a sponsor. We are redoing the portable benches. Surplus equipment from the city and
restaurant is being auctioned off via on-line bidding.
Allan's Report: The scorecards should be arriving this week. Tournament entries are being accepted.
One more pro -shop staff member needs to be hired. The plan for marshaling is to hire some
individuals and to fill in with pro -staff workers.
Monthly Topic: Eric gave members a list of proposed improvements for the golf course. Many/most
of these improvements will be funded using LOT money. In addition to Eric's list, he said the Men's
Club is researching the possibility of a permanent restroom to replace the portable one on Birch #7.
The Ladies' Association would like to set up a memorial area on the course. They are talking about
selling bricks to help defer the cost. They would like a clock to be included in the same area. This
year's scheduled improvements are: resurfacing the parking lot, and restructuring the islands in the
lot, adding power for lighting in the lot. There is also a plan to add to the maintenance shop. If the
money is approved, construction will begin this fall. New ladies' tees will be built using material from
Cedar tee boxes that are never used. One unforeseen expense was replacing the ice machine in the
restaurant.
Old Business: There was some discussion about designated smoking areas. A decision was tabled in
hopes that next month's weather will allow us to go outside so we can get a better feel for possible
sites.
The next meeting is May 9 at 6:00 p.m. Scheduled topic is "Review superintendent's annual budget
and work plan."
Meeting was adjourned.
