Steve reports that the dollar spot has been treated and Steve and his staff are 
continuing with their three tier program of maintenance. Steve still needs league 
member information. Steve will bring to the next meeting the names of the leagues that 
still have information missing. Mille Fulton mentioned to Steve that people involved 
with the memorial benches think the benches should be maintained by the CA. Steve 
will put vinyl sleeves on the benches which will keep them looking nice and easy to 
maintain. A sand box has been placed on Hole 1. Julie Gomez mentioned to Steve that 
the Japanese beetles are damaging the roses on the course. Steve will check on the 
roses. 

 


 

 

 

6. Old Business 

 

 Tom Mayes reported that the Spring Fling went well. It was well organized 

 and a lot of golfers played in the tournament. Tom says it was great to have 

 such good help and cooperation with the CA staff. All donations were appreciated. 

 

 The committee discussed plaques for the CA clubs and what the cost would be for 

 the plaques and plates. Don Smedshammer will get some figures for discussion 

 at next month’s meeting. Millie will check with women’s clubs if they are interested 

 in having plaques. 

 

 Julie Gomez reported on information she had regarding bricks for identifying 

memorial trees on the course. The cost of bricks and engraving which she presented 
would be too costly for our purpose. 

 

 The committee discussed security cameras. Tom will try to get a quote of cost 

 and bring to next month’s meeting. 

 

 Junior Golf League – Don Smedshammer reports that 52 players have signed up and 47 

 have played. 

 

 Don Smedshammer will meet at 4:00 p.m. on this Thursday with Hawk Ridge 

 Golfers to continue planning the Ryder Cup. A special name will be decided 

 for the tournament. It will not be called the Ryder Cup. 

 

7. New Business 

 

 Tom Mayes will start planning for the Fall Couples Tournament at a later date. 

 

Ron Wilson brought a golf bag, clubs and other golf equipment to the meeting asking 
the committee’s thoughts about selling equipment at the shack. The committee’s 
decision was not to sell the equipment. 

 

 8. Special Announcements: Ron Wilson stated that further Golf Committee meetings
