Handicap and Rules: There was a discussion on slow play letters and when enforcement should happen (Later tee times, etc). This will be revisited. Another country club in Manchester will give later tee times to slow groups the following week.

The language, “at the discretion of the Men’s club” should be added in the slow play letter.

Treasurers Report: Ray Solomson reiterated that the Men’s Club Financials are in fine shape. He projects about 5,000.00 at the end of the year. To Date, we are back up to 720.00 in hole in one pool.

New Business: Joe Kelly talked about potential course improvements

Some of which to help reduce slow pay. Looking for mens club to give suggestions.

  • Hole 3: Add out of bounds stakes. Remove turnaround near Green.
  • Hole 7: Remove at least the shortest bunker if not two of the three bunkers.
  • Hole 9: Remove Shortest bunker
  • Hole 11: Split the bunker. Allow for an area to roll up to the green in the center.
  • Hole 12: Put area on left side to slow some balls going down or increase size of bunker.
  • Hole 13: Remove shortest bunker. Cartpath can be reduced in length so balls will not roll down the hill as far.
  • Hole 14: Move Bunker to the right.
  • Hole 17: White stakes to house so that drives on 16 th hole that are near house will be out of bounds.
  • Hole 18: Open distance between bunkers

Next Meeting: July 12, 2006 at 6pm, Topstone Grille.
