Committee Reports
Green:
The committee is disappointed the Board declined removal of the tree on #4. The Board discussed several topics: enforcing golf course rules and sending warning letters to violators, having Story place a rope or log to block access areas to fairways that should not be used, and rotating the appropriate fairway accesses, posting notices stating no carts within 50 yards of the green, and cigar/cigarette debris on the golf course. The Board would like the committee’s recommendations on these topics.

Golf: Golf course activity is up. The committee requested the Board to use more aggressive wording in the president’s KEY message about cigar butts on the golf course, and for golfer to double up in golf carts.

House: The committee toured the Club’s facilities and reported some maintenance issues. They would like funds to purchase trees for the Terrace. The Board appreciates their efforts and requests the committee to prioritize their report list from their April minutes.
