physical condition. Also, Ed Sanner is not in good health. Kilbert Milhollin

TREASURER’S REPORT:
Bernie Bookman reviewed expenditures and income for the 2009 fiscal year and
presented the 2010 budget. The club’s activities were inline with the 2009
budget with minor deviations between activities. He reported that we have
approximately $3000.00 in the bank. The 2010 budget expects $9,810.00 in
income and the same amount in expenses and is a balanced budget. However, it
is anticipated that the upcoming Christmas party’s expenses will exceed
expected income by approximately $1,000.00. Mark Ulevich made a motion to
approve the 2010 budget and it was seconded by Clyde McKenzie and the motion
passed unanimously.
A copy of the Treasurer’s report was submitted and made a part of these
minutes.
MEMBER UPDATES:
Clyde McKenzie passed out a list of host responsibilities for review and
comments. He is continuing to send out weekly reminders on the signup time
for play on Tuesday and other reminders as well.
Bruce Howie reviewed progress in establishing play dates for 2010. At
Bentwater, the course is raising its fee to $40.00 per player which will
include range balls. A motion was made by Ted Mandella and seconded by Maury
Foreman to accept this proposal. After much discussion, the motion passed by
a majority of board members in attendance.
Bruce announced that a 13th play date is scheduled to be added to
our play schedule at Bradshaw Farms for 2010. A motion was made by Charlie
Stewart and seconded by Ron Falter to accept this proposal. After much
discussion, the motion passed by a majority of the board members in
attendance.
OLD BUSINESS:
A discussion was held concerning the Ham/turkey day scheduled for December 2.
Ted Mandella is hosting this event and he will put out a manual signup sheet
for golfers to indicate their preference for a ham or turkey. Choices will
also be available on the website in the golf signup procedure.
Charlie Stewart reported on the survey conducted relative to the Christmas
party. He stated that 29 responses had been received and that the respondents
preferred a buffet dinner. They had no problem with the proposed location,
price and disc jockey.
A proposal was made to have a fall breakfast meeting. After discussion no
action was taken for 2009 but the it will be revisited for 2010.
NEW BUSINESS:
President Kenton announced that John Williams had agreed to be Vice President
for 2010. He discussed the possibility of having the president serve two years
instead of one. No action was taken on this item.
In order to have more space for additional effort in our website, outside
vendors to manage and update the website are being considered. However, no
recommendation was made. It was discussed about having the hosts’ and
directors’ names posted on the signup page.
The meeting was adjourned at 10:30 A.M.
