B. Griffith — Is the member percentage a low number?
r ERSIM
• The percentage of member rounds played is significantly higher than in past years
• Did some research regarding the blazer patchers and a good quality patch would cost
approximately $30 each
T. Septembre —Thinks that people would wear it and it would be a nice prize to give out to winners of
tournaments
C. Baetzel — Do not think people would wear it, not many people wear sports jackets anymore
A. Pozzi — Thinks it is too expensive to sell and it would be too expensive to give out as a promotional
item
New Business:
A. Pozzi —
• Golf Course is in very good condition especially considering the number of rounds being played
• Dining room and bar have been very busy
• Catering inquiries and bookings have increased
• Natasa resigned and took a position as a restaurant manager, it is a great opportunity for her
